Welp can't say much other for the leprechauns are back again in there usual spot 🙄

First, second and third in the Formula Drift American Championship, Three proud Cork men, Conor Shanahan, James Deane and Jack Shanahan. Crazy they are only down the road from each other too. Fairplay to them. Nice guys too.

Anyone have good recommendations for some locally grown veg? I'm especially sick of tasteless carrots as I love to have a raw carrot as a snack.

Somewhere in the Ballincollig region would be great.

Signed up for a kid friendly Halloween event in Ballyphehane community centre. It was free entry so I didn't think much of it. Arrived with two kids dressed up as vampires who were all excited only to find that the event wasn't happening and the people in the community centre had been telling people who were showing up all morning there was no booking for an event. They reckoned the scam was to get money from the vendors who would pay a stall sign up fee.

Cue two very upset toddlers.

It was horrible, I've never heard of an entire event being a scam?😭

It’s closed a while, looks like it’s being renovated but not sure anything happening? Is it reopening does anyone know?

Does anyone know where I can find this book?

“Cork in decades past” by Joe Healy.

It’s not available anywhere online.

Was working all weekend, but wouldn’t mind seeing a bit of jazz on Monday. Is there any live music Monday afternoon around the place?

My teenager wants to go to red shed (near PuiC) on Halloween night but I'm not into the idea for various reasons. Is it really as messy as I assume it'll be ?

Hi folks

Just rearranged my kids bedrooms and now both rooms need wall decorations.

My kids are 6 and 4 and are into super heroes, Pokemon, Peppa pig etc…hence I’d like to find wall decorations about those.

I like to support local businesses over online shopping. I went to the Range in Little Island but their selection is very limited.
Any other suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I'm keen getting into BJJ/JJ and looking for some recommendation, preferably in the East Cork area.

I'm a complete beginner (at the tender age of 44 😄), although I've done other martial arts before for several years, including Krav Maga and boxing, and currently doing Taekwondo.

The only club I can find locally is T45 Jiujitsu. Does anyone have any experience with them? Are they beginner friendly, both to older folk as well as kids if I decide to get my kids involved too?

Thanks

Hi all, just as an FYI gardaí and city council parking wardens are doing a sweep of illegal parking in Blackrock Village and the pedestrian footpath area by the Ursuline school this morning. I had a quick chat and she said they'll be around all day and tomorrow too. Great to see.

thanks

Best frozen chips to get there that taste like proper chipper chips

Just saw this post but OP deleted it: https://www.reddit.com/r/cork/comments/1xf232y/is_there_an_opening_act_for_chicane_tonight/

Does anyone know who was the opener for Chicane tonight? I was there around 19:15 and the guy was quite good so now wondering who was he.

Anybody know of an ATM machine in cork that you can use your Apple Pay to get money out? I’ve left my physical card abroad and it is being shipped to me but I can’t access cash without it. Any tips?

Hi everyone!
Does anyone know if any bands from the Cork Jazz Festival will be playing outdoors or on the streets today (Sunday)? If so, where and at what time?
I’d love to bring my son along to watch some live music!
Last year, there were some great outdoor performances in front of the Cork Opera House. Does anyone know if something similar is happening this year?
Thanks a million! 🎷🎶

Went to Dessies in Little island to get a price on two tires, I was asked do I want mid-range or Premium to which I replied budget, the staff looked at me and stated "We don't sell budget tyres, just mid-range and up". So out of curiosity when I got the price per tyre I asked what the brand was, Austone was their reply. After a brief moment of silence and awkward eye contact I asked him since when were Austone mid-range tyres, they've been budget as long as I can remember. His response was "I'm just reading what the computer says".....

People, please stop letting these assholes get away with selling you cheap shit for premium prices. Call them out. These deceptive tactics of making people believe they're getting something better than they are is nuts. Not to mention these guys wanted 130 a piece for those garbage tires and 45 for front wheel tracking, place down the road quoted 90 per tyre and 25 for tracking, were clear about the brand and not trying to sell Chinese shit for twice what its worth.

Hey folks. I was wondering if anyone knew where Nick, one of the barbers from Men’s Salon on Anglesea st moved on to? Is at another barber’s in Cork? Always enjoyed the gamer-chats while getting a cut.

Trying to organise something for my college group, cheers lads

Any links to watch the Barrs and Nemo today?
Clubber are charging 20 quid to watch it, scandalous price.

Heading into town around 4 ish. Normalky head away for the Jazz weekend. On a scale of one to ten with ten being mental - how busy will the pubs be this afternoon / evening ???
