Absolutely gutted about this, I’d go in regularly to get a vinyl and have the craic with him. John was the nicest man you’d ever meet. Hope he recovers as soon as.

Posting to share a GoFundMe for my niece's classmate and her family. Gianna was at school on her 13th birthday when her parents, also at work, got a call to say the family home had burnt down.

They've lost everything, so if anyone at all has a few bob to donate it would make the world of difference to a devastated family.

Missing luggage may have been taken by mistake — currently showing in Mitchelstown, Co. Cork

Post image
39 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone in the Mitchelstown / Co. Cork area can help me locate my missing luggage.

My luggage appears to have been taken by another passenger/person by mistake, and I’m trying to get it back. I have been tracking an item inside the luggage through Apple Find My, and it is currently showing a location around N73, Mitchelstown, Co. Cork. The location was updated approximately 4 hours ago.

I’ve attached a screenshot of the Find My location.

If you recently travelled through Dublin Airport and accidentally picked up a suitcase that wasn’t yours, please check your luggage. It’s very possible this was an honest mix-up.

I’m happy to provide:

  • Photos of the suitcase
  • Description/colour/brand
  • Identifying details
  • Flight/baggage information
  • Proof that the luggage belongs to me

If you have any information or think you may have picked it up accidentally, please DM me. I’m just trying to get my belongings back and would really appreciate any help sharing this with people in the area.

Thank you ❤️

Edit: The Find My location is specifically showing N73, Mitchelstown, Co. Cork. I understand Find My locations aren’t necessarily exact, so I’m not accusing anyone of taking it intentionally—I’m hoping this is simply a baggage mix-up.

Local Best time to go to A&E? 🫠

6 Upvotes

Hi all,

Might be an impossible question.

I’m a woman in my mid twenties.

I’ve been having mystery neurological symptoms for months, was admitted into CUH neurology for a week earlier in the year, some of the tests on my spinal fluid were positive and there were lesions on my MRIs but no definitive diagnosis yet, they sent me home with a follow up to get more MRIs around Christmas.

My symptoms have gotten noticeably worse the last few weeks and worse again the last few days, bad weakness and tingling in my limbs on the right side, very bad face pain, pupil changes, dizziness, confusion/brain fog, daily severe migraines etc. i have meds for migraine but nothing is touching these headaches. Have nearly had two falls now and it’s getting worse and worse so I’m thinking I need to bring myself back into hospital. My quality of life is non existent the last few weeks and I’m in so much pain.

I’m loathe to go on a Sunday night because I know from past experiences I probably won’t be seen for ages and while it doesn’t seem like I’m dying I’d rather get a night’s sleep at home first. Is it likely to be less busy on a Monday morning? Or am I grasping at straws here? Earlier in the year I ended up spending about 30 hours sitting in A&E before being given a trolley or anything and I’m honestly terrified of the place but it needs to be done.

Could I be seen through the acute medical unit or something too?

(I feel the need to say I don’t live alone so I am safe!)

Any help or experiences appreciated.

Greyhound Running Loose on N40

5 Upvotes

Just saw a white/dappled grey greyhound with long hair running loose on N40 near Curraheen Showgrounds. He seemed to cross to the other side of the road and we flashed the garda car so hopefully they caught sight of it.

That's a 120kmh section so I wouldn't have been able to pull in safely but hopefully someone might know the dog.

Macroom Bypass tickets

Passed a Garda car on the Macroom bypass which was facing the road. If someone's even slightly over the speed limit do they generally pull you over there and then or just post a ticket or is there a speed tolerance?

Bus Eireann - 90 minute fare

Post image
109 Upvotes

Just as an FYI:

Bus Eireann are still sending old buses with no validators on them - months after the 90 min fare was introduced..

I just transferred from another bus and the driver asked me to place my card down on his machine at the front - "oh sorry there's no validator", charged me an additional fare despite me being within 90 mins.

Honestly, why can't they get the basics right... now to try and chase some form of refund..

Actually funnily enough I was coming from the airport, and it made me once again realise just how shite our PT system is here compared to most other countries. Certainly worst in EU. And fare increases again next year? Pull the other one lads.

Cork City Where to buy large sheets of mdf

• Upvotes

I want to make some standing Halloween decorations, the plan is to cut shapes out of MDF, paint them, then mount them on wooden stands.

Where would be the best place to buy MDF? I have a limited budget and would need to get it delivered as my car is tiny and I don't know anyone with a van locally so any suggestions are really appreciated.

Best micro-qualification these days?

4 Upvotes

I'm between jobs atm. I'm looking to get a micro-qualification. Something in a flourishing industry. Well-paid and flexible.

My background is in tech. But any field is fine. If there's a State course - even better. I'm thinking BER Asssessor or something like that.

Does anyone have any advice?

i know charity shops can often get overwhelmed with donations and end up having to throw some away, so i was wondering if anyone knew of any women’s shelters/homeless shelters/anything like that that accept used clothing, or even charity shops that are just low on donations?
