    I'd be grand if I could rely on public transport but I live in the country so i can't.

    Yup City living perks alright. I grew up in the arse of nowhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 345 ✭✭Gwildor


    Same, I’m about 20 miles aware I’m where I work.

    Yeah plus I want the independence that comes with having a car


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,784 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Yeah living at home you need something.

    Indeed. Although I think I'm doing fairly well in terms of being independent besides the car thing.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,784 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    I drove as soon as I could at home..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭Shpud2


    I drove as soon as I could at home..

    I should have my license by now but doctors stopped that from happening

    It's tough when they won't sign off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭Shpud2


    Yeah they gave me the runaround for months before signing. At least now I've lessons started.

    Ugh annoying


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭Shpud2


    Indeed. Having to rely on public transport is too like I won't be getting back to Limerick until about half 11 because I have to get the train as opposed to having a car.

    It was a nightmare for me having to rely on public transport to and from Limerick before I had a car

    It's feast or famine, congestion here is crazy.

    Oh i'd say a necessity, i also usually have a book/kindle


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 345 ✭✭Gwildor


    If be quite a frequent flyer so Spotify, Audible and PocketCasts has been a godsend for me. Has the added advantage of warding off random strangers from talking to me.

    I think those sites are best avoided at all costs! Not even my trolling skills are a match for some of the posters on them!

    They’re great to read if you need an intelligence confidence boost! Honestly, some of the nonsense spouted on them would make your eyes bleed
