Bought a fever thermometer in Lidl last week, had it on the bedroom dresser.

No no.. muffler's confused!

In Donegal, the "Kama Sutra" is an Indian restaurant so he's asking if you want the number 39, which is..

** looks up the menu **

.. Lamb Tikka Masala!

Is that not very exotic for donegal or is there a special sheep edition?

Hey all.

I want to drive to Markree Castle on Sunday. Could you kind drivers tell me the least heart-attack inducing way to go. Say from Caltragh roundabout from Caltragh.

AA route planner says I should take the second left exit. That's the pensions office. I don't need mind games like that when I'm trying to remember what foot is meant to be doing what.

EDIT: Google Maps a little clearer. I can get to Colooney Roundabout okay, but not sure after that. (I will invest in a map I promise.)

Google comes to the rescue once again!

And it's probably the way I'd go.. it's the N4 practically all the way out.

TequilaMockingBird

Snap Basquille!

I think I get it now. I may have to go around roundabouts a few times to get the right exit though.

P.S. If anyone spots a hubcap in town, it could possibly be mine!


Driving is so STRESSFUL!!

I dont think thats Markee Castle Shouldn't it be on the road from Ballygawley to Collooney just as you're coming into Collooney?

Actually.. you're right.

The map linked to just bring you right to Colloney. As gustavo said, it's out the Ballygawley road. It's the roundabout exit at the service station, right?

TequilaMockingBird

Oh God, even Google can't do it.

I'll never make it.

magnumlady

It's dead easy. Out the N4 until you come to the Collooney roundabout. Turn left at the roundabout (you will see the petrol station).
Just a wee bit up that road and the castle is on your right.....can't miss it.

TequilaMockingBird

So which exit do I take at the Colooney roundabout? Once I'm off that God forsaken roundabout I don't mind, but I don't want to faff about on it. Sorry, and thanks, but it gives me hives just thinking about it, so advance preparation is good.

I need to get a decent large scale map of Sligo. Someone remind me tomorrow!

I'm also looking to buy a car (again), I'll have a look at my old thread on the subject, but any recommendations appreciated.

MagnumLady will actually record a recording for your sat nav.

"What you wanna do there is... go out the big road til you reach one of those roundey roads type things. Then you'll see one of those fuel dispensing places. Keep going down the road.. you'll see a monkey in the middle of the road wearing a AC/DC T-shirt. He'll give you a riddle. If you answer the riddle correctly, he'll lead you down a road with a unicorn eating a sandwich and a toy soldier talking to an owl. Now....


.. don't go down that road! " *

It's the roundabout just before the petrol station as far as I remember.

Could be wrong though!

TequilaMockingBird

Sorry Val, I was still writing when you posted.

I could kiss you! First right then?

Whoops.. sorry, I mean exit!












Or do I?

If you get lost, ask the monkey wearing the AC/DC t-shirt. He'll send you the right way!

TequilaMockingBird

If I see the head wreckin' monkey he'd better get off the road rapid.











/considers the likeyhood of Basquille wearing an AC/DC top and hanging around Colooney roundabout looking for 3 hubcapped cars on Sunday... Result: HIGH :eek:

TequilaMockingBird

Alright. Who's the comedian?

There is a user viewing this forum right now called GardatrafficCop.

Gigantic amounts of pepper thrown everywhere and a water pistol should do the trick. They also hate chicken wire and tin foil.

The catapult won't win you many friends.

(Catapult - he he)

Hail 2 Da Chimp

I hear they don't like lemon juice so squirt that around the perimeter of your garden.

In local news H2DC isn't going to waste the petrol driving up late tonight to vote then driving home again early Sat morning... You win this time politicians!

What about filling a plastic bottle full of water and putting it in your garden?

I never understood why people do it but apparently it's to dissuade cats from entering your garden.
