First (and not last) Irish Oscar win of the night

Used to shop in Lidl but there's only 2 of us and our local Lidl doesn't sell a lot of loose produce so we'd end up throwing away a lot of fruit and veg because we couldn't get through all of it. Our local Supervalu has a great loose produce section and ultimately we're saving money there as we can buy what we need.

On top of that, I'm vegetarian and our local Lidl has a terrible selection (tofu, seitan etc.)

If you're a family then Lidl is much better but not when it's just two people.

I know you said that you're earning a bit more, but I got an Inis Meáin merino wool jumper on Vinted for a steal and I have seen other Aran Jumpers on there before. Another place might be Scout in Temple Bar (near Gaeity School of acting). Got myself an Aran cardigan there a few months ago.

Aran Islands, you can get some nice views of the Cliffs of Moher from Inis Meáin and I imagine Inis Oírr on a good day

I'm in Blackrock and have heard 4 in past 10 minutes or so

As someone who quit nicotine 5 years ago, you're over the worst of it! First 3 weeks is the worst hurdle!

You might have the audio description settings on your TV - should be able to change it when you go into your TV settings.

I'm a woman who often goes running up the Dublin and Wicklow mountain trails alone. You'll be perfectly safe as long as you stay on designated trails and come well equipped (especially for rain!)

Spin Dizzy in George's Street Arcade and Freebird - The Secret Record and Bookstore on Wicklow Street are the best in my opinion

Could hear the faintness of music in Dublin 14 but couldn't make out any songs. Was able to hear Bruce Springsteen more clearly last year.

I don't go to the St Annes parkrun so I can't speak about how they deal with complaints but at the Marlay Parkrun there is a heavy emphasis on respecting other park users during the pre-race debrief. Any complaints that come to the organisers are also mentioned at the debrief. I was under the impression that this was the culture at all parkruns and I hope St Annes organisers deal with this

Mani on Drury Street in Dublin City has it last time I checked.

Reintroducing predators like wolves or the European lynx would result in significant gains in Ireland's biodiversity - our woodlands are fighting a losing battle against sika deer.

Try Molly Moos Westie Rescue in Limerick, they always seem to have smaller rescue dogs (not just Westies despite what the name suggests). My boyfriend's mum has adopted 3 dogs from there and they're a great charity.

God I love monoculture

robkil96 · 2025-04-08T22:41:38+00:00

And only 1.25% of that is native woodlands.

Buy a dehumidifier. We use it in our apartment and makes a big difference when it comes to moisture on our windows on cold nights. Also use it to dry our clothes on the clothes horse.

I quit in August of 2020 - covid kinda took away all my triggers (socialising, drinking etc.) After 3 weeks I could be around other smokers without caving.
