It's magic used to have a nice selection but haven't been in there recently.

If you like to live dangerously you could try some of the charity shops.

It's Magic has loads but they are highly priced. Got loads of BBC nature ones in a shop in Derry (I know, long way from Galway :-P ) for £3 each but It's Magic had the exact same on "special offer" for €20 each!!!

Ended up getting some from Mr Price for almost nothing. Were in the toy section. Had to root behind some of the toys to find them but were some good quality 1000 piece jigsaws there.

Looking for someone with the ability to overlay heating pipe circuits onto a building drawing using CAD or some similar computerised drawing system. Would be required for occasional work on a per job basis.

Might suit someone with the equipment and skills on a part time basis.

Hi,
I'm looking for a small rubber/squishy football. Something very small, ideally bit bigger than an orange in size.
Thanks

Try the market or the Black Cat Gallery (Market St, the Abbeygate street end), maybe? I got a lovely print of the Claddagh/Long Walk there a few years back.

Thanks a million for that! Unfortunately, I won't be home until the 23rd, but will check out the Black Cat gallery if it's online- thanks again!

I got them for my wedding from a man called Sean Casey.
A real gent.

He does group lessons in some hotels.

Just checked the Advertiser. He's in the Ardilaun.

Went with Barna waste, cheapest of the main companies and quick delivery, highly recommended.
