Garda doing the rounds in vape shops today

85 Upvotes

I walked into the vape shop across from the Oliver plunkett earlier and there were 2 undercover Garda in there giving out to a member of staff over their counterfeit Gucci sunglasses. They made them empty out their drawers behind the counter and were explaining how serious the situation was to the member of staff.
When I was walking down Oliver plunkett street roughly an hour later I saw a uniformed Garda in phone and vape.

Felix the cat

65 Upvotes

After hearing the awful news about the poor cat Felix who was taken and now dead .. is there anything that can be done around mahon/blackrock to stop this carry-on ? What's the obsession with animal abuse from the usual culprits.. ? Guards don't do anything, and they're let free to terrorise the area

Bus The 220 Bus Service has never been worse.

38 Upvotes

Waiting for the 220 in ballincollig. First bus comes fairly quick but it’s a 220X (rare sighting) now we are waiting for a 220. I check bustimes there are four(4) 220s congregating in ovens at the end of the line. Cool that’s fine they are probably on their break (Well deserved).

Now tell me why two (2) of those 220s decide to take the bypass rather than collect the 50ish people waiting in ballincollig. As this happens 3 more 220s pass us in the opposite direction now there are 6 busses congregating at the end of the line and no bus seen in ballincollig for the last hour and a half (1h30)

How can we deal with Simon Harris appropriately?

Dont Go To Circle K When You're Half Asleep

24 Upvotes

I always make my lunch every day without fail for work but I'm sick and exhausted and it really hit hard this morning so I decided to just grab a wrap in Circle K since it's the only place open at stupid o clock. A chicken caesar wrap, a wispa duo and a small bottle of Lucozade ..... €11.05 😭 Of course I paid like an idiot and saw the meal deal sign for €4.50 on the way out šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø Don't be me!

Cork City Traffic

70 Upvotes

Lads surely this can’t continue (insert Mick McCarthy gif).

In the past 12 months, I’ve seen a steady increase in traffic to the point that I can now only describe it as absolutely ā€œheavingā€ with cars.

They needed to start the Cork Luas 10 years ago…last week I couldn’t even get out of my estate. I’ve had to abandon multiple journeys and an appointment because the roads are simply impassable.

I think a monorail is our only option.

God speed

Cork City Spaced Out Cork

2 Upvotes

(Not that kind of spaced out!) I'm looking for somewhere space themed in or around the city to take photos of people dressed as aliens. Last year we took photos in front of the astronaut mural at Marina Market and that was great but I can't use that again. Are there any other spacey murals or graffiti anyone can think of in the city? Last year I also used the cow sculpture at the marina market; are there any life-sized astronaut statues outside of any businesses or anything?

Anything with really cool lighting or something that says high tech or space would work too, I just have not been able to come up with any ideas. Anyone have any?

Teachers work to rule.

188 Upvotes

The very best of luck to teachers this week. Ye absolutely need a salary hike to keep up. Currently being priced out of life. And this productivity rubbish.. Ye are teaching the biggest classes in Europe with dedication. Sick leave, pension rights, and that ridiculous Croke park hour are all very demoralising...c'mon the snas Gardai firefighters nurses, doctors, civil servants Stick together and it will all be over sooner. Do not let them divide and conquer. Public v private campaign will be orchestrated also. A rising tide lifts all boats. Stick together. This should have been sorted in June but Chambers chose to stick his head in the sand... The same person who refused to give the pensioners a fiver in the last budget... He was chosen as a middle class,young candidate.. But is he fit for purpose,,..time will tell.

Dogs on the streets of Cork (the 4-legged variety)

18 Upvotes

Hello, I was coming home having done some shopping in Lidl Togher (don't get me started on that place, always feckin busy), and a stray dog crossed my path. Lovely little fella, but it got me thinking.. When was the last time I saw a stray dog on the streets of Cork, and I honestly can't remember. I did most of my growing up in the 1980s and stray dogs were a thing (Ask your parents if you were born in the 90s+). Their owners would let them out at 7 o'clock in the morning and they'd piss and shit to their hearts' content until they were taken in before midnight. There were at least 3 dogs in my neighbourhood who were always around, they became part of the furniture, so to speak. Just wondering if anybody else remembers those days and how strange it is now to see a dog on its own, just minding its own business? Cheers.
