I got an SMS from someone claiming to be from TLI Group working on behalf of ESB, saying he is in the area and installing smart meters and wants to call Monday morning.

Has anyone else had them call?

He has my name, phone number and address … and TLI look legit so it looks okay.

Any reason to opt out of a smart electric meter? I read somewhere that getting a smart meter is okay, but just make sure the plan you are on makes sense for you (some smart rates aren’t as good as a standard plan).

Thanks!

Hi! Is there any places in Cork I can help out over the Christmas/ colder months.

Down in cork next weekend, where’s the best place to watch live rugby. Thanks

They were class to see, proper fireworks

Hi everyone, Do I need UK transit visa if I have to change terminus from 5 to 2 at Heathrow airport while travelling to cork, Ireland (long stay student visa D)?

Just taking a chance here and asking, my passport card was lost on Halloween night inside in town. The first name on it is Amy, born in 2005. If anyone has seen it anywhere please let me know!

Would anyone kindly recommend a store around cork or even online a high quality brown or black leather boot please I have been wearing timberland for too long, thank you for reading

Looking for something to do today with the family, any idea if this is worth a visit ?

Anybody has any update on what's happening with the fire, it's being going on for at least an hour

So these spotlights that are coming from a venue (Sky bar in Clancys I think, but not sure), I'm just curious if they actually draw customers in, or if that have any benefit at all?

So. I went from McCurtain Street To St. Patrick Street, went into a Centra to buy some pastry bc I just wanted a pastry dammit. But I couldn't grab any cuz' a Tall, blond woman comes running at the door with a box of big Diet Coke cans, and gets caught by security before getting out. Security was a pretty bulky man and she starts yelling "I'm PREgNaNt, dOnT ToUcH Me!!" And a guy was with her, and instantly tried to pick a fight with the guard. But then I got fed up and yelled, from the opposite end of the store because I like my face un-punched, "If you were really pregnant, you shouldn't be robbing Coke!"

They got kicked out, I managed to buy a pastry, and then I start heading back to the place I'm staying at, somewhere in McCurtain street. I walk near a Spar store and THE SAME COUPLE are getting kicked out of there too!

I go into the store because I'm a 23F shortstack walking alone, I Just Poked A Hole in that nutcase lady's claims at the last store, and I still like my face un-punched, thanks.

It might've been 9pm, but is it truly so bad to go looking for hot chocolate at that hour!?

Edit: They failed at both stores, and I saw the guard knocking the cans out of her hands in the first one. When I went into the second one (cuz' safety in numbers), there were knocked BEER CANS on the floor. That lady was SO NOT PREGNANT.

Will be visiting first half of this week, anything special worth checking out in the city?

He's simply moved to a better view point. Took this pic last week!

Price being the biggest concern. Naturally looking for somewhere with reasonable prices that still does the job to a high standard.

I’m willing to go anywhere in Cork city/ county and bordering counties.

Would be great if anyone could give me a rough idea of what their repair costed & the extent of damage that it was for.

I have some fairly nice and in some cases unworn clothes that I’m just not a fan of anymore. Looking to donate them.

Any charity shops I can give them to that will sell for a fair price and will go to a good cause?

Farewell Plushy…

Hi all,

Found a cat that may be lost/abandoned. Found it up by the back airport road at one of the airport gates close to the ATC tower and the viewing crossroads. I think it's maybe a year old or so and has been there a few days. He's very friendly. Please comment or DM if you know anyone who may be missing a cat.

Anyone know the story? Cops are all over North Cork.

Was it related to the ongoing nonsense between families?

Does anyone know of a pub in town definitely showing this game?

Hey guys. I am wondering if anyone has a list or could direct me to a place that has a list of upcoming residential developments in Cork In 2025? I want to keep an eye out and sign up for updates anywhere I can. TIA

Heading to Cork next weekend and need to get to Capwell road either by bus or walking.

People, if you want to have a full blown conversation why do it at a gig ruining it for everyone else....I will never ever understand this. Literally any pub or cafe you can have a grand chat but why do it in middle of a gig.

Somewhere that's good for a bite to eat whilst watching a match?

Went last night to Mahon to see it, really intense and dark movie but so simple at the same time. Cillian Murphy is great as expected, everyone in the cinema was silent when the credits were rolling!

Would recommend!!

Anyone know what the lounge at cork airport is like? Is it worth the money. Thanks.

Does anyone have any recommendations for driveway/concrete contractors in cork city? I need people to cut out a concrete driveway and re-pour with a different gradient

Wary of the potential cowboys that normally advertise such services

No offense to people from Cork (I've lived in Cork most my life) but I find this city/county very boring. There's nothing to do--no theme park.

Any advice on parking options in city- will be there from about 4 ish today until close to midnight? Looking for something cheap!!

Hey guys, I was walking through the city last night and it felt there was a real noticeably positive difference in the city's night-time dynamic compared to this time a year or two ago. From the amount of people around, the cool new light installations on the bridges and Patrick St as well as an actual police presence, it felt very vibrant. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this and if so is it a particular issue that the council or any particular councillors and pursing?
