How are the roads today? Haven’t put my nose outside the door in 3 days!

Our 3 year old goes to Little Millers in Carrs Mills and loves it. Pat & the girls are fantastic. My nieces and nephews loved Linda’s too - Little Millers was just handier for us. Both do ECCE

If you are buying - I would recommend it or ask the seller for a green cert / seek a price chip as remedial works could be 50-80k+ if not covered by the scheme

I report them to HSE and FCC with a photo of the reg of the truck - only way to get something done unless we blockade the peninsula in the morning! Living here 40 years and most politicians have left us down and not fulfilled promises. People action is all that works

Resurrecting this - the trucks are getting out of hand again. Three trucks in quick succession at ten to nine this morning hurtling through village at speed - first one was driving so fast that small rocks were falling off as it went over the bumps. This is dangerous but extremely irresponsible with...

FoodGuru deliver - excellent Asian food and have a good sushi menu!

Classic Fingal - they did the same with the beautiful old trees on the Portrane Road between the Credit Union and the community centre and never replaced them. It looks awful now and latest fence did nothing for the area. I see they also cut down all the trees and bushes on the Seatown Rd where that...

Chungs is great but if you want a change from the local options - foodguru.ie deliver to the peninsula and is excellent

4 dumper trucks in quick succession this morning at about 8.45

Bump - reminder to mention to your friendly politicians calling to the door!

Spotted the same lorry heading up the Portrane Road past Somerton / Willowbrook at ten to nine this morning. Traffic was light so he was fairly belting it. There were plenty of kids on bikes and scooters on the way to school though. Scary how close he was to the kerb... Have emailed the council to c...

Likewise. Not sure what happened. On a lighter note, the Gaurd in the passenger seat was asleep up against the glass which gave me a great laugh on the way to work!

Ross Smyth from Corballis is great. We have used him for lots of stuff. PM for his number

Hi - bit of a long shot but I stupidly left a grey Samsonite laptop bag in a silver minivan cab on Friday night which had a silver HP ultra notebook / laptop with Beats audio and a white Apple iPad Air. Contents are very dear to me and irreplaceable. Managed to track down the cab driver but no joy. ...
