SuperValu should have it. La Napoletana Pizza flour. But they are sneaky and don't have it with the rest of the flour. It's with the Italian stuff. You can also get Doves Farm Pizza Flour in Evergreens.
McCambridge's and Morton's of Galway may be worth a look.

Could you try taking them yourself? We did photos ourselves on a GSLR camera for the US passports. Then had them printed on the machines at the chemist.

Not sure but maybe try Galway Trophy Centre on Domnick Street. They can probably point you in the right direction if they don't do them

I guess I could try that. It's for our son. I know they are pretty strict on the pictures. When I renewed mine as a child, they didn't accept them and we were sent down the road to a chemist. Due to COVID-19, you have a strict appointment window at the embassy so hoping to get it right the first time.

Watch the current though and definitely do not swim alone.

We've done the kids' ones ourselves, too. For very little kids I think it's easier to take the picture at home because you can just do it when they're in a good mood rather than going out to get them done and when you get there child is cranky/won't sit still etc. But you have to have a white/pale wall you can use as the background. You should be able to crop it on your computer or even your phone if you have one with a decent camera. There's info on sizing here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/photos/photo-composition-template.html

And if you don't want to do the sizing yourself this website says they will help you get the format correct (for a fee): https://www.123passportphoto.com/

Recently bought a pizza oven fueled with wood pellets. Any idea where to source these for cooking in Galway

I've seen a lot of people recommend Staffords wood pellets from Woodies as they have no glue/binders in them. I haven't tried them yet though as I bought a few bags of pellets online from A Room Outside

I've only bought firewood from Eco Fuel but I know they do Wood Pellets too.

They're the most professional solid fuel operator around so I'd imagine the quality is good. No idea how the price compares but these guys wouldn't be the cheapest normally, as a rule.

Got these from them, thanks. Asked for pellets for pizza oven and they said these will do. Nothing about food safe on packaging but I'm sure they are grand.
