hi guys.
do ye happen to know if the usual Limerick - Dublin Airport bus service with the likes of Ear Eagle/M50 etc are still running now?

Your best bet is to give them a ring.

Do you know if we can go to Currys PC world to buy an item? I can not use "Collect in Store" option on their website.
Thanks

Have you tried calling the one in town? It’s on Thomas Street just up from Tony Clarke’s.

The banks have always been open, they just limit the number of people into the branches at a time.

If it's just a regular self service wash you're looking for, you could try the 24hr boxes at Whitty's or the Circle K on the Ennis Road.

Garda page on Facebook and Twitter put up a new post to "HoldFirm" so I guess the "Stayathome" or whatever is gone account of businesses being open.

It seems social distancing is a thing of the past with teenagers. Did every parent just decide to open their doors yesterday and dump their kids out in unison? Just seems mad to me!

The one next to Ryan's foodstore in Raheen on the Mulcair road is open I think, if your other options fail.

That's been the case long before yesterday. I've seen loads of groups of teenagers hanging around over the last 4-5 weeks.

There's queue stretching up Roches St for it

Berty

Saw the queues on Facebook shares, people cringing at people queuing up. Hey, places have to reopen at some stage, so without hungry mouths whats the point opening, just wouldn't join a queue up the street myself but I will be driving by around 5pm so will definitely be curious to see the queue.

Would the same people cringe when Penneys opens again because that will be full of "huns" trying to get their fix of penneys.

To be fair, it'd be the same people queuing

And as the laws of physics state no object large enough to consume Garlic Cheese Chips can be in two places at the same time then I say your premise is false, sir. False I say!

We cringed at the panic shopping when people queued all the way around the Childers Road retail park to get 24 rolls of toilet paper in mid March, we cringed at the queues outside Woodies at 8:00 a.m. last Monday, and we'll quite happily keep judging and cringing at all the other over-the-top queueing that happens henceforth, thank you very much! :P

On the home commute I went through the B&Q car park. It's soo busy there. B&Q open, homestore and more, Halfords, Harvey Norman and Homesavers. I guess you could argue that the tile place and the 2 dealerships are open but they're not exactly doing a roaring trade one might imagine compared to the others.

Queues not long, social distancing just makes them seem longer I guess.

Queue for paint/cleaning stuff/car cleaners or Dinner box and gravy. I'd choose the dinner box right now, might wait till the tabloid photographers lose interest.

All we need now is for Enzos to reopen - got excited on Tuesday when I saw a few people inside the kitchen area but was still definitely closed up yesterday.....

I wonder if chicken hut have started taking card yet?

Anyone know if there was a queue for B&Q this morning prior to opening?

Need to pick up a regular shower hose and showerhead.

I could go elsewhere. Situated at Cois Ghruda.

Not sure about Thursday morning, but was at Homesavers Wednesday morning and there was no queue for B&Q around 9.15am.
