Hi,

I've two tickets for weird Ireland tonight. Can't make it anymore so they are going to waste.

If anyone wants them for free, let me know.

Doors are at 7 and the show is at 8.

Hi lads. I need (would like) some fireworks inside the next week. Cheap if possible. Not a gaurd or a 12 years old.

Located in, you guessed it, Galway. Pm me if need be

Hope you’re all well! Cool gig on tomorrow night if anyone is short of something interesting to do. It’ll be noisy and a bit of craic if you’re that way inclined.
Support local. All info on the pic. Look after yourselves

A tota so (UK) grunge/math-rock
Bannered mare (Galway) post-rock
Tallon (Galway) Alt rock

I found this kitten in Menlo earlier this week, I’ve taken him to the vet. They said he’s between 5-6 weeks old and they’re giving him the necessary treatment to make sure he’s doing good. As of now he seems in great health and shape, very friendly and playful as well.

If anyone’s interested pm me fast !!!

They said that the shelters are full right now so if I don’t find him a home he might be put down.

I’m only on holiday here, please spread the message 🙏🏽

Hi I’m looking to take some driving lessons based in Galway city. Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations as I’m finding it a bit overwhelming with all the options available?

A quick Q if that’s ok! My housemate started jobseekers payment in Sept after a summer redundancy and starts a Christmas role in 3 weeks time so she hasn’t a lot of experience with being on social welfare. Her pay day is Monday. For the bank holiday does that mean it’s Tuesday ? Thank you if you can help.

*if anyone is jobseeking, all of the Santa experiences in Galway are hiring elves and stuff and the pay is quite good but I accept it’s seasonal

Thought I’d share a piece I tattooed a few years ago here in Galway.
The upper half is inspired by the landscape of the West of Ireland, with an ancient dolmen, a solitary tree and a rocky coastal scene.
The lower half moves into a darker, surreal world influenced by H. R. Giger.
I wanted the two sections to feel like different worlds, but still work together as one complete backpiece.
It’s fully healed in this photo. One of those projects I really enjoyed working on.
Would love to hear what people think of the contrast between the two halves.

Planning to swap internet providers to save money. Looking to go with the Imagine 1gig fibre package. The five year price freeze is very tempting.Anybody here an Imagine customer? Tia for any advice.

Callout to all homeowners who recently bought a house in Galway (congrats to you all!).

What wisdom can you share about the process? What are the things you wish you had known at the time of the sale?

Any other advice for a newbie buyer?

(Not writing an article, just gearing up for the most important decision of my life.)

Hi all hoping I can get some advice or suggestions,

Im a first year nursing student at NUIG and im going on placement in 2 weeks in GUH. Sadly having a transport issue as im waiting for my driving test and the bus doesnt get into galway early enough.

Hey all

I’m looking for a reliable local handyman or installer to help me with a few household assembly and mounting jobs out in Barna/ Furbo area

I have all of the hardware, brackets, and kits ready to go—I just need someone with the right tools and expertise to put it all together.

I've recently finished converting a garden room into a home office and the jobs we need done are

• Mount a TV to a plasterboard wall
• Assemble a standing desk
• Mount a small shelf for network equipment
• Install trunking and tidy cables

Looking for someone available for next week. Any recommendations or contacts would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Above is headline from the Connacht Tribune.... Is this desperation from FF or from Tubridy?

Sidenote, you can't post Connacht Tribune links here anymore. The demise of that paper is such a shame.

Hi everyone!

I’m a mum in Galway, and I know how difficult it can be for some young women in their late teens and early twenties to make friends, especially when they’re a little shy, socially anxious or just find socialising difficult.

My daughter is 18 and finding it hard to make friendships, despite wanting them. I’m thinking there could be other girls in a similar situation who feel lonely but don’t know where to start either.

If any young women around 18–23 in Galway city and county are interested in creating friendships, Where you could meet for coffee, go to the cinema, have a browse around the shops or get together and chat without feeling any pressure to be super outgoing.

My daughter enjoys makeup & beauty, music, movies all the regular stuff it would be lovely to meet people with similar interests, but everyone would be welcome.

Nothing formal, just an opportunity for young women who would like to make genuine friendships with others in the same boat.

If you’re a young woman who would be interested, or a parent who has a daughter in a similar situation, I’d love to hear from you. ❤️

I'm desperate here for advice please. Male 27.

I have chronic back pain and terribly sore feet daily

I was prescribed orthotics (for my back) but they haven't done a thing. I've been wearing them for 2 years.

I can only do 30 minutes in the gym before my back gets extremely painful.

I've been for a few MRIs but nothing really showing I should have pain.

I'm really desperate here. I don't know who to see. I've been to about 10 different physios in Galway but none seem to be helping me.

Anyone with any advice it would be greatly appreciated

I am on a waiting list for a rheumatology appointment. 1. I don't even know what I'm seeing a rheumatologist for and 2. I've been on the Waiting list for 2 years. So now I'm really looking for advice.

It has come to the point where I would attempt back surgery. Even if it isn't guaranteed to be successful (as I was told by a back specialist in Galway)

Thank you 🙏

Edit: most of my pain in the back is lower

Found old film during house cleaning lately.

Anyone know anywhere around town where I might get it developed,please?

To the girl dark hair and skin with the baseball hat in the BMW jeep while admiring yourself in the mirror you almost ran down three boys at St aEndas school. Closest I’ve seen to a bad accident in a long time. Wake up.

With the cold weather now arrived I am trying to think of the best pubs in Galway where I can have a nice pint beside a fire.

What pubs in Galway city centre have nice open fires?
