Where to get ( x ) in Waterford City?

robtri

Looking to see if there anywhere I can get a frame for a vinyl LP,
I have a lovely signed LP and it needs a frame.
I will add a pre made frame, can't afford to drop it into a framers and get done...

stereomatic

What size is the LP?

standard 12 inch vinyl LP....

Suggest you just go around stores that sell frames, take a measuring tape and find one that is just over 12" wide. If you are lucky you might find a square one - though about 15" would be better for appearance. Mr Price at the Kingsmeadow roundabout has a good selection of frames, or Woodies does them too.

Anyone know where I might get this. Holland n Barrett don't seem to have this particular type. How about any of the ethnic stores maybe?

Does anyone know of somewhere that would turn an old t-shirt into a cushion cover for me? The t-shirt has sentimental value, but as a wearable item it's a holy show. So I want to give it a second life so to speak.

That does not look suitable (heavy enough) for an 'open fire', but more suited to a primus stove or gas stove.
Also I would expect that plastic 'whistle' to melt off very quickly on an open fire.

Ideally you would want a cast iron kettle for such use.

EDIT: Something like this is what I had in mind

You might have missed my edit .... link to McCarthy's, Tramore.

Thanks Johnboy, that is exactly what I want, I had not seen them in McCarthys though I had a rather perfunctory look round a couple of days ago. I will go in again. Agreed, a gas one would not be suitable.

I guess they might need to order it ..... but it should be available from them.

Nope, just went down and got one!

Anyone know where one would come across a chiropodist in the city or County

Just an addendum...I now have a cast iron kettle decoration - the water is not drinkable, and further investigation on the interynet suggests that you should not drink the water from this particular one, it is only intended as a humidifier. Which, in fairness, is how it is described.

I'd say there is one in the Health Park near Walsh Stadium, they seem to have most services there.

If you are interested in a brilliant school bag that will last you years...get a sport house one , factory shop out in Ida estate or possibly place like shaws or school book shop.bags are virtually indestructible.

I don't think so,I think that is azzuri.I'm sure they have a web site

deisemum

Sporthouse bags are great and they're guaranteed if there's a problem even if it's a few years later. I bought one in the school bookshop in Ballinakill and needed one asap, the shop in Ballinakill ordered one for me but I got a phonecall less than half an hour later that the bag was ready to be collected in the shop because someone in the factory dropped the bag straight over to the shop.

A few years later the zip came apart, I suspect it was down to teenage messing and it was repaired free of charge. I dropped the bag into a place almost opposite Flanagan's Fish place in the Industrial Estate, think it was K Sport and the bag was ready a couple of days later. There were plenty of the Sporthouse bags on sale there.

Havent been into either in a bit but your best bet migt be to rig world wide wines and carry out ferrybank. Id be surprised if one of them didnt have it. Dont know about the 750ml bottles though.

I'm not sure if he does HTC, but the guy in iRepair on Michael St is good and I'm sure he could tell you where to go if he couldn't help you himself.

Looking to use either kids swings or an old fashioned roundabout for a night photoshoot. Does anyone know where I might find either in the city or environs please?

I suspect that, precisely because it is a superb facility, it will not be what the poster is looking for. I think s/he is looking for one of the old fashioned tubular metal 'Wicksteed' type playgrounds, which were great in their time but likely to be discontinued by now. Are there any of the 'older' playgrounds around still?

Looking to get some plain white fairy lights to place around the room. Got some cheap battery ones in pennys but they barely last any time. I used to have some christmas ones but they stopped working twice. Should I look for outdoor lights instead or something?

We picked up so sets in Homestore and more in Wexford last Christmas, got them in mid December when all stock was sold off for half price, we use them all year round and they are excellent quality. Homestore and More open in Waterford this weekend so might be an option for you to keep an eye out there.
