    Was in the local garda station for a passport renewal during the small talk as the form was being filled out it came up i had finished my leaving cert this year the guard asked me what i was planning on doing didnt think much of it told them i was hoping to join the DF next year. I was surprised when the garda made a comment about thats a continuation of your "Gun fetish" is it:confused:...Boom it hit me this is the same guard that i left one of my firearms applications into last year.
    Bit unprofessional imho:(.

    Garda station for passport renewal? I didn't know that the state police issued its citizens with their passports.

    They have to stamp the passport photos and application and witness signatures. This may just be because i am underage which means i cannot apply online:P

    Im just saying i have no idea myself if its standard procedure for those over 18 , its a reasonable question the passport office issues the passport but they rely on AGS for proof of identity of the applicant every first time applicant has to do this. i believe if you've previously held a passport that is still in date you can skip the whole procedure of going to the Garda station mine however was out of date and im underage.

    Well, not quite everyone. I had to take a copy of my father's birth certificate along with my application to the Irish embassy in London to get mine. I dare say that if you have no direct connection to the RoI by having been lucky enough to have one or even two parents born there, the chances of getting one are pretty slim. However, as you imply, things may well have changed in the fifty-something years since I got mine.

    British passports are fairly easy to get all i need is my mothers passport number and i can do the whole process online.

    The homeless situation could have been sorted years ago Cass, and its nothing to do with a lack of public money, Huge housing schemes were built back in the 40's, 50's and onwards, when the country hadn't an arse in its trousers.

    The government parties got so cheek by jowel with the big developers and speculators, they do not want to discommode them now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,070 ✭✭✭✭Grizzly 45


    Plenty of ways this could be sorted out, but there are no votes in homeless and less money to be made. Wonder how long it will be before we see a West Berlin situation here? Back in the 80s, before the wall fell, Berlin had the same problem of homelessness and abandoned and vacant buildings. The homeless got together, formed communes and barricaded themselves into the buildings. There were running battles with the cops and sieges lasting weeks trying to extricate these communes and groups.Some of them got downright nasty,with IEDs being sent to property owners and police stations. Finally, it got so bad the Berlin cities relented and accepted that the communes could stay by adverse possession, and so long as the building was made fit for habitation and improved upon within 6months. They had the right to live there. Been in a couple of these communes,both left and right leaning,and can say they are spot on, clean and well organised. They also are a good solution in a city where the rental property price is high but fixed by law, and the longer your tenancy, the longer the notice to quit is.

    Seems the streets were not as lined as people were expecting when the dude in the white dress came. Any picture i've seen shows a few (hundreds to only a handful) on various parts of the "parade".

    I got a good laugh at our unelected "leader" standing like a good choir boy beside him knowing full well he [the pope] denounces everything about him [leo].

    The welcome that was put on for his pope-ness is akin to the British government refusing entry to Lauren Southern for "damaging the public good", but allowing a saudi prince, the Turkish PM and others with massive human rights violations and possible genocides not only entry but a welcome at downing street.

    Haven't a fecking clue. :rolleyes:

    The choir boy, princess sparkle socks, is only there because of what the pope denounces about him, virtue signalling of epic proportions, the new Irish pass-time. He certainly did not get there on merit, he made a town-halls of any other post, such as health he got his hands on.

    p.s, the pope is as big a sjw as its possible to be, he was the one calling for borders to be abolished etc.

    Canada in for a rough time on the firearms ownership front again. The idiot mayors of some cities want to ban handgun ownership to cut crime :rolleyes:. Did not work in Chicago, New York or London. Also a ban on "Assault" weapons, which maybe the result of the UN and their policies.

    It had nothing to do with legal gun owners though, it was all illegal (to the UK) pistols, usually cheap Baikal semi-auto pistols. What PO'ed a lot of people about the show was it showed a stolen car full of scrotes, who had a load of drugs on board, and weapons like hammers. They drove the wrong way on a main road at night, with the lights off, total the car, and none of them get charged, because the police could not say who was driving. Madness.

    Abit late in the year for silly season in the media??

    https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/puma-sightings-in-cork-are-too-credible-to-ignore-animal-welfare-experts-37295755.html

    From Chuck Hawkes
    For hunting cougar it is wise to select bullets with a sectional density above .236 for the small bore calibers, .223 for the medium bores, and .204 for the big bores. A muzzle energy of around 2700 ft. lbs. is probably close to ideal. The .308 Winchester with a 165-180 grain bullet would be an example of an excellent cougar cartridge. Or a good 12 GA with 000 buckshot.

    Seems to be a well travelled cat too.
    Only trouble is. Mountain lions are ambush hunters.So the only time you know it's there is probably when its sitting on your back!:eek:

    My brother almost shot a pet wolf when he was out deer hunting here luckily the owner ran down and caught it and brought it away:D

    You hear no more of the Coypu,if it was such a threat,wouldn't you think something would be heard about them by now?Same as the Muntjac?

    We'll soon know if this is real or not, once someone's dog gets eaten that is left outside in a run. Mountain lions are partial to trapped dogs or other large livestock.

    Seen feral pigs here too but they were trapped very quickly and never got a chance to spread which is a shame in a way as they were on one of my permissions:(
    Muntjac eh was it sitting beside the fairys in the ring fort after a session of Jameson in the local?:P I dont think they're ever going to get established here im starting to think the little f*ckers are imaginary creatures with the stories ya hear:D
    It seems like its very hard for anything to get established here Feral pigs,coypu,muntjac about the only thing successful was the mink but thats probably just because thousands of them got out
