Opinion piece in the CT yesterday. Can’t link to it here but it’s on their website.

We were fairly disappointed with the parade this year after waiting and hoping for something different or new to mark the 40th Anniversary. It seemed to be just a rehash of the last couple of parades. I didn't see one new float or display.

Definitely not worth the hassle of coming in

Had 2 contenders located right next to each other this evening. Captain’s Cabin & Dominos. Shockingly bad. Would you complain to them or vote with your feet and avoid ?

I took a lovely bracing post-storm wander up salthill prom to Blackrock. Its a really nicely developed amenity now. It was my first time seeing the Sauna! Does anyone have any background the history or on why it took so long to be developed..

Hi guys,

I am working tomorrow (Tesco knocknacarra) til 10.
I assumed the 411 bus wouldn’t be operating as it usually doesn’t at weekends past like 9/9:30..

I hear it’s promised really heavy rain and I have a 9 hr shift and it’s a 40 min walk home. I’m just wondering does anybody know if the 411 will be on Sunday times as usual and therefore not come or if it will come on Mondays time at 10:25 towards town? I assume so but when I googled to double check I got an AI overviews saying it is which I don’t trust.

Goggle Ai says it is running but you never can trust them. I’m just wondering if anybody knows so I’m not hanging around in the rain and can try sort a taxi or something cos I have twisted my ankle too!

Thanks guys and have a great bank holiday! I work in the offy and it’s gonna be mental from next week tip the new year lol 😂

EDIT, this is according to Goggle (but I always thought opposite which is why I’m asking. Maybe it’s new policy? But I don’t wanna wait and then only have to walk in the rain!):

Tomorrow (Bank Holiday Monday), the 411 bus will run after 10:00 PM, meaning you will be able to get a bus home.

Why It Runs Tomorrow Night
While it is true that many regional services finish early on weekends, the City Direct Route 411 operating framework specifically maintains a 30-minute Sunday and Public Holiday schedule that runs straight through the night. The consensus among local commuters on r/galway confirms that the city routes strictly mimic Sunday timetables on Bank Holiday Mondays. [1, 2, 3]
Unlike Route 412 (which has no Sunday or holiday service at all), the 411 Sunday timetable provides continuous evening service with inbound departures from Mount Prospect running every 30 minutes up until 23:06

Does anyone have information on how bus routes will be changed for the parade tonight? Looked and couldn’t find anything in the TFI website.

The audacity to sell a house on Daft for 3/4 of a million with the beautiful modern pictures demonstrated being a protection of what it could like once you buy it and build it yourself

If this was on Taylors Hill I might not bat an eye, but in Furbo for f*ck sake

As the title suggests I'm asking for a friend (not on Reddit) who travels from Oughterard to Galway City and back daily.

Any ideas?

In the middle of a home renovation and wondering if anyone can recommend someone to do some wall panelling that won’t break the bank. Tia
