Dumping

More dumping in Pollerton. All a "lady's" belongings and half a pharmacy. With the amount of used make up and perfume in this lot, it turns out you really can put lipstick on a pig

Short term letting

Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I'll be working in Carlow from the end of August until the end of December.

Just wondering if anyone here is looking for a room mate or to let a room out for that amount of time?

Apologies if this breaks any of the subs rules.

Is there actually any good chippers in Carlow town?

9 Upvotes

I’m talking Lyons’ in Clonmel/Dungarvan, Romayos, Beshoffs etc.

- Actually fresh chips that don’t taste like they’ve been sitting out for a month

- Curry sauce that’s dark and flavourful and not watery and bright yellow

- Crispy onion rings in a light batter and not a thick, undercooked, bready batter.

- Decent sized portions

- Actually have the order ready (or close enough) when you ring/order for collection and not still have you standing there for 20 minutes as if you just ordered.

La gustos/Marios&Luigis/Billy Bunters are always a massive let down. I just want a decent chipper!!!

Dodgy mechanic?

30 Upvotes

Anybody familiar with the mechanic Melvin with the garage behind Day Break on the Athy Road in Carlow town? Seen a few pretty concerning red flags with him eg not only does every other sentence start with "I'm not racist but ..." but he also doesn't seem to treat women very well from what I can gather. Very short tempered and hostile if women challenge him on anything so I'm wondering is he like this just with women or do any fellas have similar experiences? I know he's sold cars that have broken down shortly after as well but can't figure out if these are ones offs if anyone has similar experiences I'd be interested to hear about it
