From where,? please answer, lots of hot air out there.

The wife says its me snoring, but deffo notice it.not too intrusive as we are here 15 years but a different sound ok..

People on bikes with no lights.

enough said.

Adults, not only kids.

The hard stare doesn't work in the dark..

Anyone recommend (or offer) a person/company to do this to a Semi in Somerton that doesn't cost a fortune? (i 'm scared of big ladders )


Enjoy the good weather peeps.

DM me otherwise

Hopefully not another bookies

hope she is ok

Saw people today in Portrane , middle beach (beside the flag waving house) and Donabate beach. Tbh - it was very choppy. Saw 2 articles about people needing rescuing in Waterford and Portmarnock in last few days. i do a lot of distance pool swimming so was genuinely surprised to see people out espec...

thanks for that Ken

They should move the lights up to Glasslin. It’s treacherous crossing the road there with kids at school run time. Couldn't agree more. In general though, I really don't understand why zebra crossings with globes (which puts the onus on the person in the car to stop) are not deployed more widely. B...

Kids and even adults on bikes with no lights. Reminds me of the 70s when we had an excuse.(and we prob didnt) Electric bikes/electric scooters with none on, complete madness. late teenager just dropped off kerb onto road in front of me this evening, Last weekend a guy did a 90 degree turn in front o...

it's doing my nut in. the Paddocks one.

Anyone know where the driver lives? might turn up on Sat with NWA playing thru some mega speakers.

has Ronald Dump joined this conversation? Bizarre optimism is alive. anyway..... Dart Extension has been on the cards since last century and nothing. Good luck with your bladder on a 50 min trip to here from town when it happens. (young kids and pregnant women and older people and boozers) New train...

Another speedbump.

I think we are nearly outdoing Turvey ave

maybe speed cameras and instant fine (like in UK, there are removing speedbumps,its easy to see speeds now)to sort out the gobshites?

could be 25+ from Beresford to Portrane .?

prob 4 k

Bit of a rant apols.

Thanks all, DonaPortranners !

Anyone near Somerton have fast broadband?

Fibre to the Home pref.


"up to 1gb..."

https://www.bonkers.ie/compare-tv-broad ... -freetime/

is 500mb more realistic?

i suppose, considering the new "new" road, and we knew this was coming (been here 17 years) . lets hope some supermarkets, restaurants, take aways ,services and schooling come in also. Wont even start about the Dart extension or the mythical Metro , cop shop, bank or a swimming pool. So re...

earlier rant, you are right.

wow! like de look of dat

Can recommend this place highly. Used multiple times.

and the car park wont be jammers when u can barely get on the train, with new house builds coming thru up in Drogheda , Balbrig, Rush, Lusk and the best answer is , we cant build any new train lines to Dublin since the brits left 100 years ago.

Was tempted by the 1gb as now wfh long term in Somerton, so thanks for the advice. looks the 500mps is better.

its everywhere.

If you let your kids walk your dog and they dont fancy picking it up, at least get them to tell you where it is ,so the parents do.

everyone has a camera on their phone.

yes, i have a dog, yes, we pick it up.

Penisula - is that Latin ?
