What exactly do people want, there has been terrible weather for the last few weeks homes roads etc got damaged, councils will now submit applications for government aid in proportion to damage done case closed. I sincerely think some people just want to be on the news full stop.

Dublin escaped most of it, but she seems to think her island is the only place that did suffer any wind. She needs a trip to Lahinch.

I was actually referring to Lahinch/Liscannor. Cannot believe the devastation there. It must be even worse on the islands, though.

No, but I'll be like Joe and have someone do that for me.

Its very easy leave a receipt in a shopping trolley and indeed there are always other peoples receipts in the empty trolleys and they get blown around the supermarket car parks. Who gets fined here - the customer or the supermarket?

After watching the savage eye last night, I wonder has this retired Garda ever dealt with a "Domeshthick Dishpute"

@JM Skipton - just noticed your location….do you live near The Great One?

baldbear · 07-01-2014 4:00pm

So the moral from todays show is always burn your rubbish thoroughly.

Yakuza · 07-01-2014 4:01pm

This (and ID theft prevention) is why I always remove my name and address from any post that I recycle...
Something blows out of your green bin or falls out of the recycling lorry with your name on it and bammo, €150 thanks.

bottlebrush · 07-01-2014 4:02pm

And todays lesson is don't put anything in a bin or a skip that can be linked back to you.

Lets put it this way, I do bump into him from time to time as he patrols the seafront on his morning walk:D........he wears shorts even in the middle of January

Lahinch is connected to the mainland you can always drive away.
On an island you are dependent on sea or air links and there is very little shelter on Inis Mór!
also she was not talking about the wind, more the power of the sea swells which are travelling for hundreds of miles before pounding the coast

Exactly! Re Lahinch/Liscannor road being closed, people could use another road to get out. The islands are always isolated in bad
weather but now piers, etc, have been demolished by the storms. It
is going to be very difficult to get on/off those islands.
