Really trying this just on the off chance that someone here is living in this estate. For the best part of a year we have been terrorised by a small dog constantly barking.

It sounds like a small terrier or something and has a distinctive double bark. It’s normally barking all through the day and sometimes really early in the morning (like 6am). Generally always we get woken up by it at around 8am every weekend. I work nights and it is seriously impacting my sleep.

Now I know what you’re thinking.. go to the house and tell the owner that they need to control their dog. However it is near impossible to pinpoint what house this is coming from just because of the way the back gardens are laid out. I know it’s within a few houses on the same block as a certain one that burned down in August but still can’t figure out which one.

If anyone here lives in the area and knows what I’m talking about, where the dog lives or if the owners have already been contacted, it would be great to know. I can’t be the only one who’s been disturbed by this. It’s definitely been going on for a year now and whoever the owner is seems like a selfish prick who should not have a dog.

Where's best in Galway these days? I know everything is way too expensive.. Where's good quality even if the prices are still crazy?

As long as I can remember I always curious on what was behind these gates.

Looks like either a park or old stately home, but as these are not ever open I can't help but wonder

Bohermore's all blocked off by the Gards. Some lad in an apartment having a breakdown doing all kinds of shit.
Another lad drove into the McDonald's Headford road drive thru crashing the car.

Edit: McDonald's*

Old house, looking to move away from oil - can anyone recommend a Galway city area company to talk to about getting heat pump or something applicable. Zero idea about any of this, just want a company that are easy to deal with and professional and will recommend the best approach.

Is it the moon? The stars? Something in the water? Why has Galway descended into apocalypse today 😭😭

Edit: by popular demand we are blaming...... 🥁 The Brits!

Hi, I’m looking for some advice from anyone who has experience with air-to-water heating systems,particularly in older houses in Ireland or council retrofit schemes.
My house is council owned. Before any of the judgement- I am very aware that I am very lucky to be in the position I’m in. I’ve lived at this property my whole life and was lucky enough to be granted tenancy due to personal circumstances.

I have recently been approached by the council regarding retrofitting the property and installing air to water, and whether I would like to go ahead with it. For the moment I have said yes but I’m seeing a lot of mixed reviews and was hoping somebody may be able to share their experience?

I don’t currently know anybody who has air to water and I’m a bit worried that I might regret opting in.
At the moment there is central heating and two solid fuel methods of heating the house. I have been advised that going ahead with air to water would mean that the chimneys would be sealed, so fires would no longer be an option and air to water will be the only source of heating at the property.
I have been advised that retrofitting will include, new doors, windows, radiators etc.
If you do have Air to water, where did they place the indoor boiler unit? They have mentioned placing it in the kitchen, but I do have a larger hot-press space which may be more convenient?

Just looking for anyone’s experience regarding air to water and whether you would recommend it? Plus any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know what's going on at the top of Prospect Hill?

It's cordoned off with tape and a few squad cars and Gardai around. A bit of a crowd gathered too.

All traffic is diverted down to forster court.

hi, I left my car parked for about half an hour, the meter said not in service. I had previously tried to download the parking app but my phone is old and I was unable to download it, I don’t know if it was because the internet wasn’t strong enough but it was taking ages. I took a chance and left the car and got a ticket. has anyone had any luck in not having to pay the fine? I would have put money into the meter or used my card had the meter been working.

Just writing this on a bus, stuck in dire traffic ranting,I suppose we only get so many hours on this earth and I can't help but feel I'm wasting my time in this city

UPDATE, I actually just got off the bus and walked the last 20 mins, roads were gridlocked, was ten mins late for work

Looking to buy a ticket for technoparty tonight but it’s sold out is there anyone who has a ticket that isn’t able to attend?

Best of luck to them.

Random one here. Does anyone have a claddagh ring from Thomas Dillon’s? Can you take a picture of the hallmarks? The small ones? I have one but the hallmarks show as anchor which is the Birmingham assay office mark. All Irish precious metals are meant to be stamped by the Dublin Assay Office which has a different mark (harp/woman playing harp). However, I read somewhere that Thomas Dillon as the original maker was able to retain the original Galway mark which was also an anchor (similar to Birmingham). For context: picture attached.

Car has been hit and the door needs to be fully replaced. Looking for experienced mechanic to fix it with a fair price. I got some quotes but it was too expensive…Any other option or it is possible to get a second hand door for the replacement? Any suggestions? Many thanks!

What are the consequences for the birds when their regular oat fix suddenly stops? Will they struggle or get feral?

Hello!

I'm an American Judoka new to the area. Are there any good Judo spots in Galway?

Thanks!

Looking to get my boiler shed roof replaced. I have the removal of the old roof sorted, so I just need to find a roofer who will replace with metal sheets. Looking for any recommendations for good roofers, or companies I should avoid!
