    Can anyone recommend any good Limerick bloggers/snapchatters/social media types to follow?

    I have recently discovered SineadCurvyStyle on snapchat and am totally addicted to her snaps. It's great to have someone snapping about activities,services and things to do or buy in Limerick. I would be interested to know of any other local bloggers that may be good to follow :)

    I'd recommend the Glamazoniaz, if you are into beauty. They have a blog/insta/snapchat/fb. Mainly review beauty products but also are good for sales in Limerick etc. Plenty of times I have picked up bargains and reductions based of their posts.

    It's quite good. If you like the rotating curators format, you might like this - not limerick-specific though: https://twitter.com/ireland

    Also, some other Limerick accounts:

    I like having a lot of Limerick stuff on my feed. :pac:

    I see where you're coming from. I still think she is 100 times more real than the likes of SoSueMe etc. You can't have too many celeb notions when your snapchatting about Peony Court and Mace in Raheen :pac:

    I think it's always pretty obvious though when she's getting paid to endorse a product or business. She probably could be a bit more transparent about that though. The likes of Rosemary McCabe etc always make it very clear when they are getting paid to promote a product.

    Bock The Robber is well worth a read, although he doesn't seem to be writing as much as he used.

    Thomas Bibby is a good writer too, but quite infrequent.

    There's also the likes of Nigel Dugdale (Dugdale's Limerick) and Richard Lynch (I love Limerick).

    There's probably a few others too.

    There are some good Limerick history accounts around. The city has a very colourful past :-)

    Had a quick look - the article on Celia Holman-Lee is vomit-inducing

    The name Celia Holman Lee is synonymous with Limerick. A businesswoman, a model, a fashionista and ambassador for the city, Holman Lee has experienced her own fair share of highs and lows throughout a career that goes right back to Limerick in the 1960’s. The energy she exudes is akin to the River Shannon after the gates at Ardnacrusha have been opened wide.

    I'll leave this here .. http://www.limerickleader.ie/news/city-view/208307/Urban-garden-a-bold-step-in.html

    I believe he was the brainchild for this 'bold step' and now he's waxing lyrical about it. You couldn't make this stuff up.

    I see we are all famous. SineadCurvyStyle was speaking about this thread on her snapchat earlier with screenshots and all :pac: BigPink, most of the rant is as a result of your post :P

    I still think she's my favourite snapchatter out there and its especially great that she's from Limerick. In fairness, she does seem to genuinely use the same services and products unlike other bloggers who will promote any old crap. I've yet to find another snapchatter whom I find as humorous,endearing or likable. Would love to go to one of her workshops in the future as they look like great fun!
