Re: Flight Path
Can't say I've noticed much different in terms of flight paths recently. There is one flight path that flies directly over Donabate heading east. It's generally only used if planes are taking off in a westerly direction when they need to turn and head towards the UK/mainland Europe. It really depend...

Re: Timber/Builder's merchant recommendation
I used Brooks for supplies a few years back. Then I found https://www.jbrownebuildersproviders.com/ based in Lusk. Not only were they cheaper, but also much more reasonable for delivery. Worth a try if you're not aware of them.

Re: Donapoop, the town of dog poop..and uncivilized dog owners
Bottom line is that the law has to be enforced. That's the only way some people will take notice. Other countries have less of a problem as they don't just enact laws, they enforce them.

Re: Freezer fan going
If you get the model no. of the freezer or the part number from the fan, you should be able to look it up and purchase on-line. A lot of that stuff is easy enough to replace yourself if you're DIY inclined.

Roofer Wanted
Hi, Got the name of a roofer a while back on another thread. His name was Alan and he did some work for us, he was great. However, the last time I contacted him, he was sick and awaiting a hospital appointment. I've tried contacting him a couple of times since but didn't get a response. Does anyone ...

Re: Flagman on Bike Swords
He is. Saw him going past the fire station during the week. It was particularly windy, so he had the flag tied up to aid aerodynamics.
He lives in a cottage on the road off the Tesco roundabout that goes up Ballyboghall direction.

Re: Aldi Planning Permission for Donabate
I can't as I didn't put in an observation. I checked and most people had made similar points to the ones I would have made. I've appealed decisions to ABP in the past. It's expensive and I've had no success.

Re: Aldi Planning Permission for Donabate
According to Adrian Henchy on Facebook, planning permission has been granted to Aldi on this site. Seems incredible given the location and that Aldi use articulated lorries for deliveries. The Distributor Road would have been a far more suitable location.

I can absolutely confirm the bin is full and has been since early in the week. I presume Fingal realise that they have to empty it every now and then.

No, was very straight forward. They did warn us that there is a conduit from the connection outside the gate, down the driveway to the house. If the wire runs ok, then no issues and we get connected. If they can't run the wire through the conduit, then it's our problem not their's and we are respons...

Petrol/Diesel Prices - Maxol
I don't know how many have noticed, but the Maxol in Donabate is about 5c per litre dearer than most other places. The garage on the south side of Swords main street is 1.67.9 for diesel and 1.75.9 for petrol. That's compared to 1.72.9 for diesel and 1.80.9 for petrol in Donabate. That's a lot on a ...

This thread on Boards.ie may be useful. Looks like you'll only get the Irish stations and can be hit and miss. For more variety and quality, a dish and freeview box are the way to go.
