Wanderer2010 · 04-01-2014 11:29pm

Lads, anyone know the best place in Waterford to laminate sheets? I have a few A4 certificates that I would like laminated, they arent brand new sheets, one or two are a tad worn. Anyone know a place that could do this?

Cheers.

Surely you know someone who'd have a laminator or at least have access to one through work or something? If not, I'd imagine the likes of Barry down in suirdzign on Patrick's street would be able to do it.

Wanderer2010 · 04-01-2014 11:45pm

^ I dont know anyone who would have a laminator. Ill check that place out thanks.

JaneDoe111 · 06-01-2014 1:55pm

Try Cantec in Cleaboy Business Park.

shockwave · 06-01-2014 2:24pm

You can buy one fairly cheap in tesco.

Swissarmyknife · 22-01-2014 6:59pm

Hi all
Would you mind filling in this short survey as part of my college research, which is in relation to the Winterval Festival in Waterford to see if there would be a demand for a Toy Show event.
Thanks

I wouldn't believe much of what he says, in the last few years he's claimed to be making a film about the famine starring Colin Farrell and a Brian Boru film starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Now he's saying it's a film with Thomas Francis Meagher as one of the leading characters. I'd be doubtful it'll ever happen.

Maybe it's the same blockbuster, Leo might win an Oscar this time......:-)

Lads I don't even know where to begin with this one. I'm lookin to learn to dance. I can see everywhere salsa and zumba classes but what I'm lookin for is, I don't know, social dancing?
like how they danced in clover.
I'd be a complete novice, but I'm fed up going to things and watching everybody else dance and feel a bit stupid too.
would anybody know of anybody willing to teach someone or if there are Waltz jive lessons in Waterford or near? One to one or classes I could join?

prob should add I'm a female.

Chip Whitley · 27-06-2014 6:01pm

Mike65 closed his account today. An excellent contributor to Boards, especially the Waterford City and Soccer Forums. Also has the highest amounts of posts on Boards I think, as things stand he has 90,093 to his name. Sad to see him go.

Does anyone know that busker always in town with the baseball cap? Can ya please tell him to stop playing Wagon Wheel? :pac: . Everytime i walk past hes playing it. I walked past him walking up to Dunnes today, got and ate a roll, walked back down and he was playing it again!

deisemum · 02-12-2014 6:33pm

I got 4 rescued ex-battery hens today. Hopefully after a couple of weeks of good feeding, fresh air and sunshine they'll be thriving and enjoying life. At least they've been spared being slaughtered later this week.

Today was their first day outdoors and tasting grass. They're very nervous though and I'm keeping them away from my existing hens.

longshanks · 02-12-2014 8:42pm

I'd love to keep a couple of hens. It's one of those things I'm often saying I'll look into. Beekeeping too.

mooseknunkle · 05-12-2014 5:54pm
