Cork to Limerick Road

1 Upvotes

I've recently accepted a masters in UL but live in Cork city area. From past posts, I'm gathering that the road is quite dodgy but am considering commuting each day. This is only for a year and though I don't have the timetable yet I know I'll be in class for at most four days of the week.

I am also waiting on getting my licence which means I'm considering public transport for at least the first three months or get accommodation until I pass.

What are people's experiences with the travel including the use of public transport and any advice for a student on a budget? Thanks

Car was stolen in Riverbank Annacotty overnight and two young people were spotted trying front and patio doors in other houses in the area between 2-4am.

Double check your doors are locked overnight, valuable are out of sight and any battery operated cameras are charged and connected to wifi/storage.

Sunday drives

24 Upvotes

Like countless fathers before me, I feel the need to disturb my family's rest and insist we drive somewhere on a Sunday. My usual go to is Curraghchase and a coffee and treat in brother bear but I'm looking for something different. I have a newborn and a 5 year old so I'll have to tailor my options to suit them.

What are your favourite Sunday drives around limerick?

Pet friendly accommodation?

2 Upvotes

Well I don’t need to explain the state of the housing crisis but is it a shot in the dark to be able to find pet friendly accommodation in and around limerick? I’ll be working in UHL and will potentially be bringing my doggo with me. Would prefer of course to have my own place but does anyone even know of Facebook groups or anything remotely where I could room with people that don’t mind pets/ other pet owners? I just moved back to Ireland about 6 months ago and didn’t realise the absolute state of the situation until having to look now! 🥲

Why are the Kids and Teens out on the streets harassing people

69 Upvotes

I'm an international student and many of the times I've had to go out there are always kids about and around which isn't the problem. But they come block the way and shout obnoxious things to my face and follow me a bit doing the same thing. It's the same if I go out in a group as well so is this how all Irish kids are ? The older people seem a lot better and are very welcoming and friendly to speak with but are they also doing it out of professional courteousness?

Childcare in Dooradoyle

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We’re relocating from Nenagh to Dooradoyle next month and are trying to find childcare for our 4-year-old daughter.

She currently has a place in Nenagh, but we’d really like to find somewhere closer to home in Dooradoyle. We’ll be living in Huntsfield.

Does anyone have any recommendations, or are places generally impossible to get at the moment? We’re happy to pay for the right childcare, so cost isn’t the main concern.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

According to Google images, in may 2009 18 Davis street had a business on it called Limerick BEST project. This is the building that GOSHH is in now.

Does anyone know what this was? I can't find anything about it on Google and it seems to have no link to GOSHH.
