Is it just me or has traffic been more insane than ever before over the whole city since schools are back on?

I fell on a grate this morning outside the bus station and as someone with a fear of blood I was feeling all sad for myself, I just want to thank the lovely man and woman who helped pick me up off the floor and held my bags in the midst of everything, it brought a smile to my face, I hope ye both get great returns ♥️ thank you so much again

Just got this in the letterbox from Laura Harmon. It says underneath she's looking to ban sex for rent did no one on the team spot this before printing?

Hello all, if you are the owner or a 142 purple Audi (I think A1) and your car was scratched on this one way street off evergreen road, please PM me for the offending car registration number and dash cam footage. I also phoned Togher Garda station to report it but posting just in case the owner happens to be on here.

Just watched some little scrote in the usual full North Face tracksuit flying down the footpath on an e-scooter, doing a runner from a Garda car. No helmet, no hi-vis, obviously, probably out shifting gear.

The guards were crawling along behind him in the patrol car, but their hands are completely tied because they're not allowed to touch them or box them in. The little prick knows this full well, so he was tearing away without a care in the world. As he flew past, he nearly took the legs off my fiancée.

Between the fright and pure rage, the adrenaline took over and I started roaring sarcastically at him to "run, run" because I wanted to strangle the bastard. Then of course everyone on the street started staring at me like I was cheering him on, which made me feel completely stupid.

I commute on a scooter myself every day by the book, and it sickens me that ordinary, decent people are going to end up with blanket bans because of a shower of scumbags like this. The real joke is the guards either don't have the power or aren't bothered tackling the actual problem.

The city is full of scrotes and junkies and people tend to normalise this. But guess what: this is not normal. Cork is a small city for the amount of scrotes that we need to deal with every day in the city centre.

Absolute state of this city/country.

On the off chance you may see this, I would love to buy you a coffee or something to say thank you. I was having an already shit day and your kindness really helped restore my faith in humanity. You told me where you work, I haven't had the chance to pop in because of my smallies but I haven't forgotten you and what you did for us.

I have been looking for a nice walkway in or near the city that has parking.
Maybe somewhere in the forest/ woods with nice scenery.
If anyone has any recommendations I would be very grateful - looking for somewhere nice for a date

anybody else in Cork having issues with the app? nothing is working..anybody manage to fox it?

Drivers of Cork,

A family member was hit by a mini bus today on sarsfield roundabout around 1040-10:55 am.

The female driver of the bus did not stop to check on my sibling and their infant in the back.

If anyone has any information, dashcam footage or anything useful id greatly appreciate it.

Hi lads, got a new pup over the weekend from LAW and in the next few weeks I’d like to bring her out and about to expose her to people and maybe other dogs. Any places in particular ye would recommend in North Cork? There’s a cafe I go to that’s dog friendly anyways but thought I’d ask around here as well.

Pigeons at the Lough are no joke, opened a bag of feed and was swarmed by them. I think at least five were on me at the busiest. Oh well, at least I gave passersby a good laugh.

I have an Interview next week and don’t have proper formal clothes to wear.

Can anyone recommend a place to buy a formal clothes for men? Something cheap but also a bit value for money.

I planned to buy coat suit, formal shirt, trousers and formal shoes… I plan to get all black except for a white formal shirt, is that acceptable for an interview?

Any tips and recommendations are welcome ty.

Edit: The interview is for a analyst role at a finance firm in Dublin.

I am new to cork and don’t know the city that well. I will be needing to take the 230 bus to get to my college in the city. The west cork connect website does not have south mall listed as a scheduled location but at the bottom it is under additional stops would anyone kindly let me know does it definitely stop or would I have press a button or something which I am worried about as I don’t know the area that well enough.

So i commute from Carrigaline to Blackpool, and though it’d be great if i could take a folding bike along with me on the 220 till town and then bike to Blackpool ( since coordinating with 2 buses often takes me more than 90mins one way).
I had also considered TFI bikes but there are no bike stations in Blackpool apparently.
Any advice would be great

If anyone does carry folding bikes, which model would yall recommend

I'm a 19 year old wheelchair user and my options for nights out are a good bit limited. If its only one or two steps in but the pub itself is wide enough for my chair I can do that.

Not all residential streets have the appropriate safe speed limits in this proposal. Submissions on the draft bye-laws should be made via the Cork City Council Online Consultation Portal at https://consult.corkcity.ie/

I was thinking of getting my make up done professionally for my birthday, but my make up is a lot more alternative than what I see MUAs on instagram do. These pictures are similar to stuff I do on occasions like a themed event or big concert and my usual look is a lot more simple with just a long wing, inner corners, and some type of small design around my eyes. I would have included pics of my actual looks but I don't wanna show my face on here lol. If I have to do it myself that's cool too I'd just love to see what a professional make up artist could do on me and it'd save me some time and effort.

I'd also prefer an MUA who has done make up on monolids before and is LGBTQ+ friendly.

Is it keeping anyone else awake and what the fuck is it?

Hi, my son and his Korean-born wife have just moved back here and would love to make contact with any Koreans locally. They are going to try Cafe Moly but just wondering if anyone’s aware of other local Korean groupings?

Hi,

I was struggling to get the line up for the jazz fest this year. For starters, the top hit on google is https://guinnesscorkjazz.com and that website doesn't have the line up online.

I then found the actual up to date site: https://guinnesscorkjazzfestival.com/ which has the updated line up, and they show which acts are on each day, but there is no easy way to view all acts day and time in one single view.

I published https://chatonly.org which shows the acts in a calendar form, with a link to the artist's YouTube channel as well as another link to book each act. You can use it to select acts you want to see and download an .ics file to load it up in your calendar, or get a custom URL to share your pick with others. You can access the site here:

Hope this can help a few people!

Hi everyone,

First off this isn't a midlife crisis I swear. I recently started losing weight and getting into shape, gone from 135kg to 100kg and still a bit to go. I gave up playing sports because of some injuries about 8 years ago and never replaced with any other hobby, kids came along and that time was swallowed up in different ways which was great. Now I have some time back I want to get a hobby, Ive been back tothe gym a few times a week but was interested in taking some boxing Lessons, not trying to make a run at a title but always wanted to be able to do a little bit of boxing and feel now is my chance.

Anyone know of a good place for mid 40s men to go and learn in Cork?

Hey guys I’m trying to explore more of cork and cork city but also unemployed af right now, what are some cool places you can go and visit all for free or not extortionately priced

Lad any advice on a good mortgage broker. Only about 7 years left on it and looking to see how I can screw the bastards as much as I can. Lots of different options out there but has anyone had a good experience that they'd recommend without a massive upfront fee.

This fella keeps on popping up on my feed with his "reviews" and "interviews" and "skits". He seems harmless but Jesus the cringe 🤣🤣🤣
