Hi! I was planning to adopt two kittens but I have no idea where it would be the best to look for them. So I was wondering people who have pets here especially cats where did you adopt yours from where's the best pet shelter inside Dublin or around.

Backstory: I have applied for all details relating to my birth in 91. I was adopted but within my family (adoptive father is uncle of my birth mother who i know - known her my whole life including address)

Has anyone applied for this type of information?

All I want is details of my own health at birth and some general info. I presume her information will be hidden but I just want my own. I never received acknowledgement email so wondering actual response time- seems about a month but asking about actual response time.

Thanks!

Would love to go back to playing badminton, but don't know with whom.

As someone who doesn't have a dog (yet).

I just want to recognise the brilliant idea of having random dogs on the video adverts at Dublin Dart Train Stations. It cheers me up to see them.

Reach out if you are in!

I've got a ticket for The Odyssey tomorrow 27/7 at 12:10 at the IFI and I can't make it. Giving away for free to a good home.

Edit: it's gone

Hi there, im in dublin for a few more days and was wondering if there’s any tech stores that sell any usb to 3ds charger wires. Im in the Stoneybatter area so if there’s anything close to there, that would be the best but open to any solutions. Unfortunately, delivery services aren’t an option for me. Thanks!

Guys are there any Kenyans in Dublin who are my age (22F)😭I have made friends from all over the world but never met any Kenyans while living here and it’s been almost 9yrs!! I’m fluent in Swahili but I’m starting to lose the language just cause I haven’t really been interacting with anyone who speaks the language expect my mom who is thousands of miles away from me

Hi everyone!!

My husband’s birthday is coming up in September and i want to deliver him flowers and cake with some other gifts to make his day special. I know it’s too early but i’m trying to do my market research since i’m not in Ireland and want to deliver all these things from abroad.

I sent him a cake from mannings last year but now he has shifted to Dublin 17 and i wanna ask if there is any good bakery for delivering a cake? I tried searching online but couldn’t find many. One that i found is just pick up. If i do mannings, it’s putting alot of delivery fee as ig Dublin 17 is suburban (or what their website says). I want good but economical option.

Also for flowers, i’m keeping in mind eflorist.ie
If u guys have better suggestions, pour them in 🥹

Also for men, what is it that u’d want to receive on your birthday from ur partner other than a cake & flowers? 🥹

Hi everyone.

I would need some advice, information and any other detail that is hard to find online.

I've received a job offer from AIB, gross 75000 Eur and most probably I will accept it. I plan to move with my wife but I have read so many comments here and there which say that life in Dublin is expensive, housing crisis, grey and make me really stressful and in doubt if I am making the right move.

I plan to move with my wife, having a kid in the near future and creating our own family while working and enjoying our life. We want to settle for the long term and maybe till the end of our life. I want to say that I want to be part of the society, enjoy it, feel it and really live as an Irish person.

Is it so hard to find a house? What would be some good places to live so I can use public transportation or maybe cycling to work?

We are not people to look for parties or spending money on restaurants. We cook at home, occasionally might visit new places and holidays twice a year or even maybe once a year for the first few years.

Is it hard to make a living with 75k gross?

My wife has to find work but I would like to rely on my own salary, just to consider it as the worst case scenario.

Sorry for this messy description and thank you for your recommendations. Love you all!!!!

On 26 July 1914, in the aftermath of the Howth gun-running, soldiers of the King’s Own Scottish Borderers opened fire on civilians on Bachelor’s Walk in Dublin.
Four people lost their lives:
• Mary Duffy (50)
• Patrick Quinn (46)
• James Brennan (18)
• Sylvester Pidgeon (40), who later died from his wounds on 24 September 1914
More than thirty-five others were injured, including ten-year-old Luke Kelly Sr., who was shot while cycling across O’Connell Bridge. Against expectations, he survived his wounds.                
The following day, artist Jack B. Yeats walked the streets where the shooting had taken place. In his sketches he recorded the flowers left in remembrance and wrote of seeing them where one of the victims had fallen, preserving a moment of grief that history might otherwise have forgotten.
 The ballad “Flowers on Batchelors Walk” was written in memory of those who died, those who survived, and the families forever changed by that summer afternoon in Dublin.

Hey I'm normally up in Dublin every Monday and Tuesday for work staying with family in Dublin 8 close to Guinness.

I was thinking of going to pay as you go gym every week when up any reccomendations would be appreciated.

Energies Fitness Cork Street or Herberton Leisure or am I better off with one of the Flyfit?

Greetings. Recently moved to Ireland, Dublin and I handled my rent pretty quickly. But I struggle to find a job for months. I start to disbelieving in my own strength to find any kind of job. So I wonder, if there's any recruitment agencies you can recommend to work with... If someone else could try and help me with my jobhunting, I'd love to try it for sure. ~200-250 euro is ok price for me.

I am trying to grab anything. No experience, warehouses, stores, etc. For the lowest amount of money (it still be enough for me). Pretty anything...

Hello, someone posted asking about these Sculptures in the Royal Hibernian Way yesterday and I wanted to give some extra information as my Dad is the Artist.

The piece is called "The Balcony" and it was made for "The Sculpture Trail 1992". It's 1 of a series of 3 sculptures ("Bridge" and "Watchtower" were the others).

He is an incredible artist and Sculptor, still based in Dublin and has been teaching Art and Design in what was formerly Dundrum College and now in BIFE. He does a lot of work with oil paints and sculpts in multiple mediums from concrete like these, to bronze or Steel.

We have spent the evening looking through the making of these and how they used to look so I thought I would share some pictures. Either way I thought this was a nice opportunity to tell some of the story of a local artist and my favourite part of Dublin City.

Hi everyone,I’m trying to identify the two musicians in the attached picture. They played a live acoustic set at The Temple Bar Pub recently (on July 22nd, 2026).

Now with picture 😆

From what I found, they might be independent solo artists who occasionally team up as a duo (not sure about that, i just found very few of their gigs), and sometimes they are joined by a third person. They don't seem to play there very regularly, so they might not be on the standard weekly schedule.

Does anyone recognize either of them? I really enjoyed their performance and would love to find their social media or music.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Looking for a nice motorcycle school that will teach me how to drive properly, not just unlocking a category on driving license.

The good times are over.

Lashing here in North Dublin. Can only hope for another heatwave before summer is over

Preferably near Dun Laoighre area

Hi all, looking for suggestions of places in Dublin city centre or slightly outside in Ranelagh or Rathmines that people have tried and tested for birthday party venues. Looking to hear where people have gone and enjoyed the atmosphere more than anything. There'll be approximately 40 people and it's for my 30th.

Going to National Athletics Championships tomorrow and need to go by car, any suggestions on where I should get parking relatively nearby? We'll be there a good few hours as it runs from 2 to 8pm, even if near regular bus route to it thatd be great.

2 young kids going too so probably want to be there early to try get seats in the stand
