    Close your curtains forget about it. If they aren't causing any noise or are actually flashing sure the only thing they are guilty of is not social distancing at the moment.

    Ah OP, I see you have stumbled on the NIBS Club.
    North Inner-city Buddhist Swingers Club.
    Free to join, though you must be bald and bring your own towel.

    Go on, take a swing at it!!!!

    Hi not sure where to post this
    if a moderator wants to move a more suitable place please go ahead.

    Bit of a strange one, I’m wondering whether to ring the Gardai due to the strange and unsettling behaviour of our neighbour, or at least, a neighbouring house. We live in a historic terrace in the inner city, we know many of our neighbours, I think a few were turned into flats, but I thought this one was owner occupied, which is directly opposite our house but in saying that we haven’t seen the couple who live there in a while.

    Anyway, this may or not be COVID related, but twice last week, and again last night, we noticed men, in ones, walk to the front door of this house, knock, wait outside for a bit, sometimes as long as ten minutes , and then enter the house. This appears to start around one in the morning and best I can tell continues until maybe four. Reason I have been able to observe this is because we have a young child who is waking in the night, and her bedroom looks over onto their property. When I’ve seen this behaviour I’ve continued to keep an eye out, as it is unusual/unwanted.

    Anyway, the more worrying part is to come, as five minutes after a man enters the property he comes out again, this time wearing only a towel around his waist, were he then waits for twenty or thirty minutes, maybe more, as long as an hour perhaps I lost track, and you know how cold it is at night at the moment, until he is again invited to enter the property. I’m not seeing any of these men leave, they all have shaven heads or are bald I think at least the ones without hats. It’s possible there is a back entrance to the house. My worry is that first, they should not be congregating for a party during the pandemic, second, I wonder is that a kind of brothel, but why make these men wait outside only wearing a towel plain to see to one and all. Finally I worry that since we are directly overlooking this property, if anything strange happens will these men assume that we ratted them to the gardai as we have the only unrestricted view of their property. As I say, I think the police will be very vigiliant during the pandemic, although my own experiences with the police have been less than stellar, but I don’t want this happening on the terrace at night for obvious reasons.

    Well they are gonna know it was you now

    Are they wearing gigantic nappies under the towels OP?
    That sort of weird sheeeet is big in GB. Maybe it has just arrived on our shores?

    Yyou are mad if you think I am going to post any pictures here, at least after I speak to the Gardai, last thing I want is some internet sleuth finding where I live. I'm already anxious about writing this thread. I have my own suspicions about what is going on but I don't want to be laughed at.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,647 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    They are putting the drugs up their bum....

    Do your suspicions involve kiestering?

    How long have you lived there? Are you sure this isn't a parochial house? We lived beside a parochial house in Inchicore in the 90s and this sort of carry on was quite normal.

    Best first post ever in fairness!


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,769 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    OP I'm positive there's a logical explanation to all this.

    I don't have any to offer you mind but one thing I'm curious about is who's washing all those towels, and when?!

    They're making sex videos, obviously.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭madalig12


    Call de cops on the next one. They are breaking movement restrictions. Im sure there is a no standing about in a towel at night clause.

    Get one of your mates, a brave one, to call around with a towel slung over his shoulder , knock on the door and say "Reg sent me".

    When they are outside the door, what’s holding up the towel ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,865 ✭✭✭tabby aspreme


    If the towels they are wrapped in, are wet, then it's probably just a support group for lads with a fever trying to reduce their temperature by homeopathic means


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,935 ✭✭✭randy hickey


    Maybe they're filming a promo for The Santry Towel Company?


  • Registered Users Posts: 883 ✭✭✭Scoondal


    If you are in the inner city you should contact Galway City Council. If it is Salthill, that would be the county council.

    My other thought is that they could be taking turns riding the hole off someone and then getting into queue again for round 2.

    I'd keep an eye out over the next week OP and see

    OP is having a laugh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,292 ✭✭✭TheBoyConor


    Is it not obvious how you can figure out what goes in in that house?
    If you, or your husband if you are a woman, shave your head and go knock on the door at 3am then you might be able to go in and see what the deal is. You might get a souvenir towel to take home with you.

    are you OP? you're not coddin us now ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    I wonder are they getting their body hair removed or something? Why are they all bald?


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,069 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    c'mon OP.........updates please


  • Registered Users Posts: 9 maurylen


    Okay they are at it again, so far there has been two , same as before, they walk up to door, no bag nothing, let in after 10 minute, back out again in the towel. Timed how long they were outside, they just stand there looking around waiting for twenty minutes, then the door opened and they went inside. Bald with fuzzy gray hair, second one normal hair middle aged. Both gave me the creeps. I have the light off and am peeping out because we put the cot in another room.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,929 ✭✭✭✭Ash.J.Williams


    When they are outside in the towels are they chatting or just small talk?

    It's a Laundrette that specialises in hair regeneration.:rolleyes:

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.

    Perhaps they are performing the essential “service” and just going out for a fag?
