Hey everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for a good and reasonably priced mechanic in the Longford Town area. I went to this one mechanic and I paid €125 for an oil change and whatever filters are usually replaced with that. While the work was fine, I feel like the price was a bit high!

Now, my car's serpentine belt (the one that manages the water pump, alternator, etc.) needs changing. If anyone knows a reliable mechanic who offers fair prices, I'd really appreciate your suggestions!

Alright good people of Longford.. myself and 2 friends are visiting your fine neck of the woods this weekend for a lads fishing trip on the River Inny. We're staying in a BnB near Newtownforbes.

We have dinner booked at a place in Longford town Friday night and we are looking for decent pub recommendations in the area for after. We're all mid 40s, married, and prefer old-man style pubs. Think places like the Gravediggers, Long Hall or the Royal Oak in Dublin (sorry, but that's my only frame of reference as I live there).

We'll have a car (I'm DD for the night) so can take a little adventure if called for.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, sorry for formatting - I'm on my phone. Was looking for advice here just on views on the following neighbourhoods: Prospect Wood and Clonbalt Wood's? Are they safe? Any drama going on there? Looking at houses for sale and see one I'm each place we like in our price range, so want to know more about the areas! Thank you

I love F1 and following it since 1993 and usually just watch it at home because most people don't seem to follow it here. I was out tonight and heard a group of lads in the pub having a great detailed knowledge conversation about the sprint race and qualifying today and the predictions on the race tomorrow and I really wanted to join in and it got me thinking, are there many F1 fans in Longford and up for getting together to watch and discuss in a pub some weekend (provided we can get a pub willing to put it on)

Does everyone remember his TiKTok and TeenKix band of cronies. I can’t for the life of me understand or would understand why anyone would vote for him in today’s universe. Longford don’t be stupid. I’m very disappointed in SF midlands for this embarrassing situation and campaign for Longford. I feel like Longford is going to lose out either way and more young people are turning the country to Australia. Which is sad.

Hello there, I’m thinking of moving to Strokestown Road, Longford, I have 2 young kids and from what I can see there’s a bit of crime in the area, so naturally I’m worried. Is this true? Is this something I should actually be worried about? Any answers would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: thought it would also be important to mention we’re from Mauritius!

Hi everyone 😊 I hope you’re all having a lovely week so far!

It is Eating Disorder Awareness Week this week and we are trying to raise awareness for something called orthorexia - which is a disordered eating pattern wherein people become obsessively fixated on “pure” foods. Very little is known about orthorexia in an Irish context which is severely impacting the provision of appropriate care.

I would be very grateful if anyone had a spare 5 minutes to take part in our short survey which is completely anonymous. ANYONE aged 18 or over and living in Ireland can take part - whether you experience eating related issues or not. We are finding it difficult to get the number of participants required (200 more needed!) so your contribution would really make a difference.

You would help us to learn more about something that is vastly under-researched in Ireland which would be very much appreciated.

Thanks so much, I really value your time🌻

With the recent rise in anti immigration & refugee protests, I don't seem to hear much coming from Longford. I lived in Longford for 18 years and I remember it being pretty diverse. How are things now?

So I've done some serious sleuthing and found that my biological grandmother moved from England to Ireland at around 2002, and lived (might still be living there?) in Moydow. I have never met her but would love to reach out and try and make some family connections.

I have the last dwellings but I would really appreciate if anyone could help with contacting her as I can't find a telephone number or active social media account to say hello. Is there an Ireland Yellow Pages or similar?

Hi, I am currently to get five more respondents for my survey in order to finish my research. The survey looks at the effect of participant’s favourite health and fitness influencers (this also includes sports stars they follow or people related to mental health) on their purchase intention of products they promote. The survey only takes 3 minutes and I would really appreciate it

Hi,

As said in the title, I would like to know if Longford is a good place to live in ?

Are there any activities ? Are the pubs nice ? What about the security ? Is it easy to find accommodation ? How much does it cost ? ...

Thank you for your answers

Hi there, my name is Eoin and I'm currently in my final year of college studying Graphic Design. For my degree show, I want to focus on the language people in Ireland use, more specifically the slang, sayings, insults etc. The more bizarre the better! I am trying to gather data from each county of Ireland and see how the slang differs from county to county. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone would spare less than five minutes to fill out a quick survey. Also if anyone would like to talk to me privately or more in-depth, let me know! Thanks.

Hi guys, I'm currently in the process of setting up a nationwide tour for my hip hop label and but I'm not familiar with many venues in your county. Is there any you guys would recommend? Give me any and all suggestions and I will look into them. Thank you!
