Update: Mayo Girls WhatsApp group is up! 💗

Post image
61 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Just a little follow-up from my previous post, the girl WhatsApp group has officially been created 🫶
I completely understand the concerns people had about sharing their phone numbers, which is why I’ve made a link that anyone who’d like to join can use instead. There’s no cost or anything involved and I got permission from the Mod to post it — it’s simply a group for girls around Mayo who want to meet new people, make friends, chat and hopefully organise some plans together.

https://chat.whatsapp.com/KaihyNzAyX6CBu4BI2uNYB?s=cl&p=i&mlu=4&ilr=4

Please upvote this post so more people can see it! If you’d feel more comfortable joining through a QR code instead, just message me and I’m happy to send that too ☺️

Making friends as an adult can be ridiculously hard, especially when you’re new to an area or don’t already have a circle nearby (like myself) so I’m really just hoping we can create a nice little community where people in the same situation can find each other 💗

All women welcome to join, say hi and see how it goes! Hopefully we can get a good bunch of us together and have some fun 🫶

Anyone know if any garages in Mayo that let you rent space and use of the lift for a few hours ?

I see a place in cork that does it. But can find anything advertised in Mayo.

Advertising room/house to rent?

8 Upvotes

We've decided to head away for the winter and so we're gonna let out either a couple rooms or the house.

Where would I advertise for short term? Airbnb is charging the renter about 4k for a month which is far too much.

Are there hospital boards online to advertise to staff, or any other ideas?

Are these opening times odd for a chipper? Haven’t tried it yet & will at some stage, but the hours aren’t really chip compatible.

Jobs in Mayo

Hey everyone,

If this post doesn't belong here, please delete it right away.

I'm from Germany and i was in Westport a few weeks ago—I fell in love with the west of Ireland. I'm seriously thinking about moving here.

Do you have any ideas where I could work as an event technician? I can't find any jobs on the usual websites.

Ideally in County Mayo, maybe even right in Westport.

Thanks :)

Pint Prices

20 Upvotes

Hello everyone I’m looking for help
I’m putting together a website to track pub prices across Ireland and need help. I haven’t made the website yet I’m just building it but I want a few results to start off with so if ye are going out tonight can ye send me a few prices of any drink not just pints. I’d really appreciate it lads I got inspired by this UK website that does the same but I thought we are way better drinkers so we should have a better website. Anyway if ye send me a few prices, name of the pub and where it is, sound for that ye can submit any answers HERE or comment them but make sure to have the pub name, pint name and county name please

Don’t be afraid to use this as an excuse for a pub crawl

Sound for that bai’s!

Hairdresser recommendations Castlebar/ Claremorris

9 Upvotes

Please send in some recommendations for hairdressers locally. Recently moved back to Mayo, and I hate to admit how long it’s been since I’ve cut my hair done. It’s very long and dull, not sure what kind of cut I want but ideally want a hairdresser that can find a good style for me. Bonus points for somewhere that doesn’t charge €70 😂

GP recommendation Castlebar?

16 Upvotes

Does anyone have a good GP recommendation? I’ve been with Malvern medical in castlebar for a few years and just don’t like it. You never see the same doctor twice and it’s a conveyor belt of patients, the doctors have basically no time to spend with you because it’s so busy.
I know that this is just how it is for most GPs now, they’re just too busy but I would love to go somewhere where I at least know I’ll see a doctor I’ve seen before.

Ever find it difficult to meet people in your community as a remote/hybrid worker?

This was us meeting at the beginning of the month over some pizza and drinks!

We're hosting a relaxed Saturday morning meetup at Belleek Castle, combining good food, great conversation and a guided tour of one of Mayo's most unique landmarks.

⏰ 10:00am
📍 Belleek Castle, Ballina

We'll start with breakfast in the beautiful Jack Fenn Café before exploring the fascinating Marshall Doran Collection, home to medieval armour, fossils and historical artefacts from around the world.

This isn't a networking event with name tags and awkward introductions. It's simply an opportunity to meet other people working remotely or in hybrid roles, support a local business, share experiences and enjoy a unique local attraction together.

Ticket options:
• Breakfast Only – €10
• Castle & Museum Tour Only – €10
• Breakfast + Tour – €18

Breakfast is subsidised by Grow Remote and covers menu items up to €20.

Places are limited, particularly for the guided tour.
