    If you walk past a place and see a sign indicating that it has ceased trading, mention that.
    If you see a business that has been gutted mention that - maybe it hasn't shut down, maybe it's moved location, I'm sure other posters will question as such.
    This isn't exactly the most concrete proof from a random poster on the internet, but is enough for the post to stay until it is countered, and as Galway is not a massive place most of these are easy to verify.

    I can't give you exact rules of conduct as I can't plan for every possible scenario, each post will have to be dealt with as they crop up and a lot of this has to do with common sense, just don't post something if you're not certain about it's validity - so posting something like "I heard from X that the Alphabet Shop is shutting down" is a definite no-no.

    They have said that all outstanding orders and agreements will be honoured so the buzz might not be too bad.

    New place going in where the fruit and veg place was on Mary St, im guessing maybe an Asian or Eastern European foodstore by the shelving inside. Something called 'Down Town Cafe' opening where the German place was on Abbeygate St.

    So this place is an Asian grocery store, its more Korean and Japanese than the other ones around for those interested.

    New shop called 'My Shop....Granny Likes It' opened couple doors up from Sallys too.

    They're open today according to their facebook.
    This thread isn't for throwing out rumors that we then have to sort out.

    They had to close on Sunday due to being a victim of its own success allegedly!
    Ran out of absolutely everything on Saturday. Hard to get fresh supplies on a Sunday!

    An Italian cafe called Florence has opened in the former Couch Potatoes location.

    Standard pizza / pasta looking Italian menu. I haven't tried them out, just noticed last night.

    So we now have Venice in Lower Abbeygate St, and Florence in Upper Abbeygate St. Anyone wanna take bets on where Rome, Naples, etc are going to go? :-)

    Are you saying it's closed/closing down or answering another post or something?

    Shanely, you're going to have to substantiate your posts in this thread, guaranties from an anonymous poster aren't enough

    There is a gym moving into one of the empty units there but it's not due to open until autumn. So there must be 2 units let out. :D

    A few months ago you claimed a different shop was set to go in there so I've removed all info about this latest development.

    Don't post again unless the shop you're talking about is trading or you have other suitable proof of either business opening/closing

    I hear ya. I work on the street so I hear all of the news.

    No bad intentions on my behalf. I will only post when there are feasible links in future.
