Doubtful - its a bit small for one? But it could definitely do with a few stops!

Knowing the council they would make the park one way to provide a bus lane, sure there is hardly any traffic out there hai

Hi guys,

This dog has been missing since since Saturday night from Clarina.

He's been spotted around various parts of Limerick, might keep a look out for him.

Is it mandatory to have an attitude problem in order to work in Superdrug or is it just an added extra that the majority of the staff in there seem to have?

Most places are like that now customers are an inconvenience

Thanks, yes, mostly dog groomers come up in Google even though I search for "cat grooming Limerick". Petmania's website makes no mention of cat grooming services, but does state dog grooming so presumably they also don't do cats, but we might ask anyway.

Well, on the complete opposite end of the scale, I just have to mention the absolutely lovely young guy that served me in Tesco Dooradoyle today.
I think his name was Andrew, and he was an absolute gentleman. I was standing in the queue for a few minutes as there were a few people in front of me and he was so lovely and chatty and friendly with everyone.

So nice to meet someone like that. Such a difference between my experience in Superdrug on Sunday and Tesco today.

I find service very friendly in Limerick restaurants, Bella Italia, Shake Dog (Coonagh), Milanos all fantastic service recently. Really helpful.

Mungret Recycling Maybe,saw a skip for rubble but dont know what exactly.

Berty

Yes building waste skip will take rubble and the like. Prices are for household or commercial so if you've a van or trailer you might be weighed.

Then greenstar may be better.

Picked up a block of cheese in the supermarket today here in the middle east. Glenstal cheese produced in Murroe. It's the small things in life!

It's not actually made in Murroe. It's just cheese made by a different company packaged in Murroe as "Glenstal". Mainly for the overseas market.

Aww bubble burst!

RhubarbCrumble

Some of it is made in Murroe, in Abington which is a couple of miles from Glenstal. I'm open to correction but AFAIK the butter is made there with milk from Glenstal cows. It used to be once upon a time anyway.

anyone reliable around take away rubbish - garden waste ?

If you have a friend or relative who would have the use of a van or a car and trailer take it to Mungret Recycling Centre. If not, try one of the licenced waste disposal people like Bob's Rubbish Removals or Taylors. You will pay a hefty price mind you - could be a few hundred depending on how much you want cleared.

Used Taylors myself at the start of the summer. Filled up the whole truck with garden waste for what I thought as a decent price after a bit of haggling. In and out in 15 mins. Would recommend them.

They might as well just shut the whole city down and call it a day. Jesus.
