    Hi, does anyone know if Limerick City is really busy or ok as regards crowds today? Thinking of a last minute braving of the shops in the next hour or so.

    You've probably left already, but yeah - I'd say it's nuts!
    City Center might be OK, but you're brave if you hit the Crescent or Parkway/Childers Road. :)

    I couldn't say for sure. On a normal saturday it could be fairly done and dusted by 2.30/3pm.

    It being christmas there could be longer opening hours, depends on how quickly the traders run out of stock!

    I had to pick some stuff up in M&S in Liffey Valley this morning so thinking it opened at 10am arrived at 9:45am to find it open since 8am. Did shopping and realised entire shopping centre opened at 9am. :eek: Strollled around and it was already jammers. Came out at 11:00am at the M&S car park and there were people patrolling for looking a parking space. :eek:

    Did walk around Dublin yesterday and had NOTHING to buy. The place was mental. There was a few Clermont guys in Morphsuits drinking cans around 12:30 walking up past Trinity and there was a group of girls singing christmas songs who stopped and started screaming "LEINSTER" instead. Madness ensued. :D
