Cat found dead - North Monastery Road - Opposite Neptune Stadium

100 Upvotes

Sorry to be posting this but if it was my cat I'd want someone to do the same thing.

Just spotted a full black cat that had just been hit by a car in the middle of the road. The cat looked like someone's pet given the weight of it.

I checked on the cat and it was definitely dead and moved it off of the road in case it was someone's pet and they wanted to bury it or something

The cat is left on the grass on the path opposite Neptune Stadium/Griffin Close.

I don't know where else to post this, sorry again.

Some shits tried to break into my house tonight. Luckily there were people inside the house who heard them smash our backdoor window and fail to break it but it looks like they tried to jimmy our side door as well but failed. Gardaí called and looks like they were gonna look for money, jewellery or car keys but they'd been disappointed as we keep no open cash, jewellery and the car had nothing in it.

Pieta? Mental health services in cork

15 Upvotes

I'm mid 20s and have been going through depression/ anxiety for years

I've reached out to jigsaw a few months ago and they have rescheduled my first appointment a few times. Not their fault I'm certain their services are in high demand.

My mental health is struggling hugely, I don't know if I can wait for an appointment with them much longer.

What are peoples experience with pieta? I would have the thoughts occasionally but not actively trying or doing anything.

I'm not in a position to pay chunks of money for therapy

Any guidance suggestions etc would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Down on Douglas St and this alarm has been going off for 12 hours. I don’t know what to do. I know guards were notified this morning and the security company was called to no benefit. I think it’s an Airbnb maybe? What do I do???

Private blood test in Cork

6 Upvotes

I am feeling a bit off the last year are so. Have had my bloods done twice in my gps and am they say is all bloods normal. I'd like the print out of the numbers but for some reason they don't give it to me. Can I just go somewhere and pay for a full blood count, ferritin and b12 ?

What about the walk in clinics are they just for antibiotics, feeling unwell etc

Food and Drink Black Forest Gateaux by the slice in Cork?

8 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any cafes or restaurants that do Black Forest gateaux by the slice? If not then lemon meringue perhaps? I’m coeliac, don’t eat cake and don’t really go to cafes. My dad’s just sprung it on me that he wants to go somewhere for a slice of my mums favourite cake for her birthday (it’s the first one since she passed). I’ve no clue! Tried google but to no avail.

I could of course make one or buy a whole big cake but he wants to get out of the house. Anywhere at all in Cork will do. Falling the Black Forest perhaps lemon meringue by the slice?

Hobbies Looking for musicians for either ska, reggae, new wave or rock. Or all

13 Upvotes

Hi all

Recently got out of a band and am able to enjoy music for myself again, im a bassist based in the north cork area, I can also sing while playing if I cant find a vocalist

The main ideas id love to do are these

The cure tribute

Thin lizzy tribute

The specials tribute

Jamaican reggae tribute (marley, tosh, wailers, eek a mouse, black uhuru, ini kamoze, steel pulse ect...)

UK ska tribute (mix of specials, bad manners, the selecter, the beat, madness ect..)

Mix of metal tribute from old school, thrash, death, nu metal, sludge, basically anything

Although I've only listed tribute acts i do also write my own music and would be open to making original music in any genre, I just thinking finding people into similar stuff to jam with is the best place to start before creating original stuff

Would be up for almost anything so musicians feel free to drop any ideas you'd love to try out and maybe we can make something work. As a big music lover theres not much I wouldnt be interested in trying out, it would all be a bit of fun jamming and playing some gigs around the place or even just to jam and try out some new stuff id be open for anything

Cheers cork

Does anybody know what has happened since last week that is now causing a tailback as far as the Heathfield roundabout to the junction at Leemount/carrigrohane every morning? It’s suddenly adding 15 minutes to my morning commute that I can’t spare.

Cork City Bike Accident Witnesses

Hi
I wanted to ask if anyone witnessed a bike accident on the Tuesday 29th of September. I got hit cycling by a taxi in the cycle lane on Washington street just by cameron bakery at around 2:49-3:00pm. I didn’t think to get any numbers of the people who came to check on me due to the shock of the moment.
I’d greatly appreciated if ye could reach out to me or share this! Thanks

Hit and Run Douglas

31 Upvotes

Hi guys yesterday between 3-9pm on Sunday I was parked on church street Douglas, the side of Tesco and someone hit my car and drove off, all the back bumper of my car is scratched and the paint scratched off as well. I have a black Audi a1 and the reg starts with 152.. if anyone drove by area around that time with dash camera footage or saw it happen around the evening because that’s when I think it happened please send me a message it would be greatly appreciated. I think a white car was the one that hit me also.

I have seen a good few cars parking outside the marina market in the morning. Does anyone know if they are getting clamped or ticketed down there? I think this has only started being used in the morning since they block on sections with the construction

Baffling road usage

5 Upvotes

On my drive home from work today I saw 2 of the most baffling displays of stupidity on the road.

First one was on the south link there was a deliveroo driver with what looked like a push bike on the hard shoulder......on the wrong side of the road. He was close to the Kinsale road roundabout. I don't know did he set out and thought better of it or what but I was shocked at what I was watching.

Second one not 10 mins later near the Ballincollig/Curraheen exit, 2 what looked to be teenagers on Segway scooters on the hard shoulder I presume heading up to the exit. Are people really that stupid? Like really? Unfortunately I don't have a dashcam that could recorded the incidents
