The fecker would probably set his mom or his sister/sisters on me once he woke up. No way am I going to mess with him. I'm not taking on an angry mother whose baby baby I broke.

I have managed to turn my just crusade against the evil Imp into a new sport.

I call it Snipe Ball.

So far participants in this new kick a Snipe game have been the game's creator (The wonderful Kessy Kess Kess or Kess Kessler to his friends:)), Snoopy gunner (Have an eye on him due to a suspician he is an Arsenal supporter), Xsiborg (who has coolest rl name of anyone on Boards), and Source (Pops up in Crimeline style pics as taken by the Snipe)

Even the Snipe's life partner has played the game a few times. Yes the one and only tern tickling, bird bothering, fedora flying IO himself.

So come one, come all. Snipe ball is a game for the whole world to enjoy.:p

Someone needs to tell those two to get a room!

Also got a reply about those stupid or "smart" traffic lights.

The lights at this location are “Smart Lights” that change depending on the queue of traffic waiting at each road. They prioritise the road with the longest queue at any given time. E.g. the lights will stay green for a longer period in favour of the road with 20 vehicles waiting than a road with 5 vehicles in the queue. The priority changes at different times of the day depending on the traffic volumes at that time. No one road is give priority over the other.

Mc Love · 24-03-2012 4:43am

Anyone see what those eejits in the county council are doing now? Putting a pedestrian crossing at the roundabout near Collins bar! Really, like? Could they not find better ways to spend their budget!

The city and county councils see no potential safety issue by dumping pedestrian crossing right on the exits/entrances of roundabouts. It is not as though some of the roundabouts in Limerick had obstructed views that would prevent a motorist doing the legal limit from seeing a pedestrain using the crossing until the last second forcing the motorist to slam on the brakes which could put the pedestrain, the motorist and other vehicles all in danger.:rolleyes:

Laurbie · 24-03-2012 1:49pm

Hi there,
I am very sorry for jumping onto your thread, but I'm looking for people that know Limerick and by the sounds of things you really do.. I have just moved to Castletroy and I am working near Thomond park. I need to get the bus/buses to work and was wondering if anybody knows where the bus for Thomond area would leave from?
Once again apologies for jumping in but I cant figure out the Bus Eireann timetables..
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

The Snipe · 24-03-2012 1:52pm

If you go to the Large Dunnes on Henry St. THe busses for Ballananty, Cravel Park, And Pineview gardens should bring you up right past it, and I think the Chardavin one does too, or if not, it lets you right down the road!

Kess73 · 24-03-2012 2:42pm

The 308 and 308A goes from UL to the city centre.

The 303 goes from Henry street (by the Dunnes stores that Snipe mentioned) to Ballynanty and has a stop near Thomond Park.

308/308A

303
http://www.buseireann.ie/pdf/1251473933-303A.pdf

There are one or two other buses routes that might fit in with your route, but those two seem to cover it handily enough.

Insect Overlord · 24-03-2012 3:02pm

The 302 (Caherdavin) bus passes Thomond Park as well. It leaves Dunnes on Henry St every 20 minutes during the day. The choice of which to take would depend on where you're working in relation to the stadium.

The Snipe · 24-03-2012 3:12pm

The Chardavin one would probably be best even, as its always there in comparision to the other busses!

Laurbie · 24-03-2012 5:41pm

Thank you all so much! You're very kind :P

The Snipe · 26-03-2012 12:26am

Go for a run along O'Connell Ave? Though you might punch something other than a wall

If you are fit enough for it, then try a series of short runs. You have the Baggot estate right beside you for some daytime runs. I assume that as a local you would know the old walk fairly well, so just use that. Or just go in a straight line down the main lane from the top of Portland Park, go to the end and then back. It would be a short run (a little short of a mile) when down and back are added together. It would also give you an idea of your fitness levels if you wanted to then put a running programme together for yourself.

Get a weight set and set it up in your shed, and start a proper light exercise routine. You would be amazed at how much tension you can get rid of that way, plus it would be doing you good.

Failing all that you could try the "Attack Kess in the street" strategy.:D Cannot guarantee any sort of long term benefit to such a strategy, but it would bring your rage and angst to a very abrupt end

The Snipe · 26-03-2012 10:50am

I like the sounds of the last one tbh :P

Kess73 · 26-03-2012 11:01am

As Josey Wales wisely noted: Dyin' ain't much of a living boy

Get a decent pair of runners, do your stretches and warm ups, then get yourself out for a short run. Works marvels.

The Snipe · 26-03-2012 11:18am

I'll give that a try so, Or I might just punch Satan in the face! Its all the one to me!

the industrial estate in Raheen is a great place for running. Did 3 laps of it yesterday and hardly a sinner about the place.
