Any pharmacies in Galway offer an iron level blood test?

Have a look in TK MAXX. It's a bit hit and miss, but I have picked up some nice handbags there.

Hey folks, you've been a great help to me so far.

I'm looking for someone in the City. An audio person who fixes electric guitar amplifiers (possible circuitry work involved as I'm not sure what is actually wrong with it).

dastardly00 · 26-10-2018 10:45am

I need to buy a large mat to put inside at the entrance of a building.
Suggestions for shops? I need it today. It has to be at least 180 x 80 cm (I will cut it to size if larger)

EDIT: Got sorted in McDonaghs in Ballybane.

Try one of the flooring crowds (give them a ring). Tom Dempsey's out near Oranmore spring to mind, but there's others dotted around the place. They'll probably advise on someone else to try if they can't help

A good cheap Physio. Not many have prices listed. From what I can see standard prices seem to be around the €55 mark. I guess I'm being too optimistic by hoping not to part with more than €30-40?!? And also I notice on Websites that some places appear to treat more ailments / Injuries than other places... I don't know whether this is just a downfall on the part of Company's Websites' design, or if it's a case that some places just have more-experienced broader-qualified Physios working there. Would like to hear people's experiences of Physios in and around the City please.

Darcy Noel in Bailey Point Physio

And me, he has sorted out my sprained wrist, fingers and rotator cuff injuries, with great humour and expertises.

The physio at work is very very strict and even she has complemented my recovery from these injuries after my sessions in Bailypoint.

Try Halfords or Argos.

Looking for brass wire in galway, I need a couple of different gauges, maybe 0.8mm and 2 mm. So far the nearest place I know of is Healy's in Limerick.

Good cheap physio. Same as any trade, you will get either one or the other.

Anyone know where I could get an electric razor/shaver repaired ? It cost me a bit when I bought it and I particularly like it.

Where can I buy reasonably priced tea spoons?

Cat toys that look good enough for a Christmas present but fit into a dozen birthdays after Christmas budget.

Cheshire Cat · 14-11-2018 6:49pm

Dunnes or Mr Price

Dealz.

Aldi had an animal week last month. They should have the leftovers going for half nothing if they haven't dumped them for Christmas stock.
Mine has anyway but I'm out in the sticks.

Heading to Galway tomorrow with the missus for the Christmas Markets and will want to catch the Ireland Vs New Zealand rugby game. Any recommendations for a decent pub to watch that has plenty of big screens around the city centre?

Thanks!

Pucan probably the best bet. plenty screens in there, and like rugby.

An Pucan, the Skeff, and Mcgettins are all on Eyre Square beside the Christmas markets and all have big screens. An Pucan if you are in early enough to get a good spot would be best

w/s/p/c/ · 16-11-2018 4:26pm

Thanks for the recommendations folks!

I am looking for Heat Holders Socks. Supervalu had them last year.

Bredabe · 19-11-2018 9:52pm

Where can we get straight legged fleece lined(heavy) pants/jog bottoms?
Dunnes/Pennys are too lightly lined for the purpose. M-XXL in size range.

Bredabe · 21-11-2018 6:01pm

Anyone know of a holistic vet in the area or within a shortish drive?

You could try Philip McManus at Glenina Vets.

freecycle.org is free stuff, not buy/sell but its local and the community is sound out and normally actve enough.

Adverts is probably yer man after that, barring a local buy/sell Facebook page

tradesman.ie - you can post what type of job you have to do & should get back a few quotes (read back over old jobs offered to gauge what price to quote etc)
