They have whoopee cushions at the tills in Smyths in Airside

Be careful of Eir. Their "unlimited" broadband isn't "unlimited" at all. It's capped at 1TB a month (sum of up/down).

There's plenty sold since remediation happened and loads currently at sale agreed. Go and knock on a few doors

Jaysus that's one huge estate. With all the building going on (if it all goes through), Donabate won't be the same.

Adding insulation internally (as in, to the plasterboard) would be a big job and would reduce the size of the rooms significantly. I know someone getting external insulation done atm (in town) and it looks great - a lot easier to do although I'm not sure how it would be finished on a semi-detatched ...

There is also a species that seems completely oblivious to the fact that they need to make a payment when making purchases. So cashier calls out an amount and only then do they commence the 5 minute bag search ritual. LOL, don't start me on the crowds going through airports. "What do you mean ...

Used this crowd before too, Stephen was a nice lad;

The Somerton "land grab" is actually at the request of Somerton residents who agreed to withdraw planning objections to the development if the site access went via the Portrane Road, thereby closing the pedestrian access... I can't see how this contributed to closing the pedestrian access...

Welcome back to Donabate to the Gallaghers, they certainly know how to keep residents happy!

I'm in Carrs Mill and heard machinery up the back of the estate at around 22:00 too.

Hi all, Seen good few asking about garden sheds, canopys etc. I got emerald flooring to build my garden shed, was built to measure couldn't be happier. Kevin also laid floors in our house and did the staighre. Couldn't recommend him enough! His number is 0879176168. Anyone wants look at his work ju...

Put them on adverts.ie for free, someone will come collect them. You'd be surprised what people will take when it's free!

Also interested in this!

PM me the number too please! A lad let us down this week and looking to get the kitchen tiled.

I've lived here nearly 10 years now and I still don't get the blue cars joke!

Got a number / price range?

At the end of the day, I bet you a beer that the developer of the site at Cois Inbhir will hand a bag of cash to the developer of the site at the back of Carrs Mill, and traffic will flow through Carrs Mill instead

The original plans submitted were for this development to gain access to Beaverstown Road via Cois Inbhir. However, due to objections by several Cois Inbhir residents, the developer has now been requested to investigate the possibility of gaining access to Beaverstown Road by other means. While I w...

My big issue with a lot of the development being planned is that most of it is all the same. Small 3 bed semi's a few 4 beds and more apartments. We are out in the sticks and some of the houses / gardens should be bigger and the footpaths, roads should be wider and heck we should have cycle lanes. ...

Doesn't look like it's on the bend from that elevation but sure anywhere off that site isn't great. You'd be off your head that close to the train station.

Completely agree, when the old ones were cut down it looked like a tornado ripped up that road.

I don't have a green thumb, but after seeing the size of those pipes that are now under those trees, I hope they take over time / aren't blown over as easy as the old ones!

I *think* they count as extending your house, hence I'm operating under the guidelines that I am / am adding a shed;

I've seen a few of these done in Donabate and wouldn't mind getting it done; anyone have it done and can recommend your builder/carpenter?
