    Homestore seem to have them regularly, when I looked last week, they were working reduced hours.

    Closed completely when I passed by at 230pm yesterday. Might wanna link to those reduced hours if you have it.

    I just bought components and built a PC but can't get Windows booted on it. Just wondering if there are any computer repair shops open in the city centre, or anyone that specialises in this area?

    I know it's not a great time for it but I was hoping to get some design work done on it, working from home with the work laptop which just isn't powerful enough for Illustrator etc.

    Their normal hours are until later in the pm, so I would take it these are their pre close down(assuming they are) hours.

    Edit: I've been told that their closure notice is at the very bottom of both their home and store details page, which is why I missed it on my screen shot.

    I've found this an ongoing issue, companies not updating their platforms about the most up to date situation, or placing that info in the most logical place.

    My car battery died in dunnes carpark last week. My wife got roadside assistance out so started it and got it home but it has not started since. Can anyone recommend a business who will call to our house and replace the battery. We live in the salthill knocknacarra area.

    You could try Ger O’Farrell (across from the spinnaker pub. He has a battery pack that would start the battery there & than.
    Very nice fella too.

    Is the battery dead dead? Would a recharge not fix it? I don;t think car batteries should need to be replaced very often and if it started with a jump then it's probably just flat (disclaimer: not a mechanic).



    Have a look at these guides:

    Cheers, Ger came out and replaced it. All sorted now. He said he has a few similar cases, good idea to turn the car over once a day. I think my battery was near the end of its life and sitting idle for a few weeks probably done it no good.

    Thanks, I’m looking for garden compost and neither Woodies or B&Q seem to be offering click and collect.

    If anyone knows of any garden centre open this weekend or offering click and collect I’d really appreciate it if you could post the names here.

    Looking for a garden shed, with a metal/steel roof

    The shed can be timber, but the roof must be metal / galvanised metal / steel.

    I asked SteelTech in Kilcolgan, they don't sell them.

    I was in aldi this evening to do a food shop and seen a lady leave with about 6 big bags of compost. Could be worth a look in your local one. Their specialbuy stuff was all outdoor and garden stuff lately. We bought an outdoor fire chimenea wednesday. Loving it.

    I ordered this a couple years back:
    https://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/6554543.htm

    Needed a place to store the kid's bikes. Can fit 3 full size bikes plus some extra garden bits. That said the labour to pull out a tree and dig down in the root/rock infested ground 2 feet to create a foundation and then fill with gravel from a quarry nearly killed me. The shed itself just took a day to erect. I can vouch it would have been much easier to assemble with a helper as it comes IKEA flatpack style.

    There were a good few sizes available if I remember right.

    I think Laptech on Eyre St are doing repairs. Check out their FB page.

    Local company O'Brien's Timber Products offer metal roofs as an add on extra for their sheds.

    Their shed prices are on their site, you need to ring for metal roof info.

    The O'Brien product list and styles look very familiar, from my visit to the SteelTech depot in Kilcolgan.

    O'Brien website say their products are on display at SteelTech yard in Kilcolgan.

    It seems that SteelTech are selling the O'Brien timber sheds.

    Ring in an order and the lads in office will gladly sell to you. Especially in these times. We stock white, self-raising 16kg & 25kg & 8x1.5kg. Strong 16kg. Cream flour 25kg. Plain 16kg & 8x1.5kg. Wholemeal 16kg & 25kg. Gram flour 2kg. Cornflour 3kg. I'm sure you can buy a single or two of the 8-packs (8x1.5kg).

    Garden centres like Woodies are still open. Try ringing them.
    Note, you're technically not allowed to go out and the guards may nab you.
