Hi guys,

I am looking for a person with a ladder to remove a vacant birds nest from a drain pipe, 2 minute job but we don't have a ladder.

Need to get the job done soon, as the birdies (swallows) will be due back any day now.

Will throw few quid/beer tokens if someone can help me out.

Based in Knocknacarra.

Thanks in advance

Are there any bicycle shops that you can buy second hand bikes.

Am firmly in this camp, unfortunately.

I've heard good things about Westside Cycles, and if you're willing to travel, the bike shop out in Moycullen.

Timmyctc · 22-04-2014 2:53pm

Westside are nice to deal with. If a little teeny bit expensive imo. Got a nice 2nd hand bike there though. No complaints. Y'know, until some woman crashed into me and ruined in in front of the Guard barracks and drove off of course :pac:

I was in there once. They seemed busy, which is fair enough, but they could have been more polite in how they went about suggesting I leave.

You'd buy a new bike for the price of what I seen they have.

Also, Kembali on Upper Abbeygate Street for bandanas. That's where I've bought all mine.

Got my bandanas for €2 each, great selection of colours.
The guy downstairs in the Eyre Sq Sc was looking for €5 each!!!
Back to Kemball for some more - thanks Redhairedguy!!

Maybe someone on here will know a bit more about him

@b.gud:

Many thanks for that! I made an appointment with him as soon as I saw this.

Timmyctc · 24-04-2014 10:25pm

Anywhere, preferably in the city, that would print and frame a digital photo?

What kind of quality/size are you looking for? You can walk into Boots and print it yourself down the back, pick a frame up off the shelf and you're done.

There is a guy in the middle of Galway Shopping Centre, he does canvass type pictures.

civis_liberalis · 25-04-2014 1:53am

Anyone know of a shop that actually has Kinect TV mounts for Xbox One in stock? Gamestop didn't a week or two ago and didn't seem like they would any time soon.

Thanks.

I go to Baily Point Physio in Salthill and I'm very satisfied with the treatment and practitioners. My physio is Una.

I'd be interested in recommendations on this too. My knees are giving me hell lately.

I'm looking for La Roche sun cream please. Thanks in advance.

deliege · 29-04-2014 9:24am

I'm looking for someone able to change a zip (well actually half a zip) on a kind of bean bag* - probably not a very difficult thing for someone with a sewing machine and some sewing experience, but the fabric is quite thin and stretchy so I fear I'd be making a mess if attempting myself. Any idea of a place to call in (preferably east side)?

* bought a replacement top cover for a baby "doomoo" seat / nest, and they apparently changed the design of the zip in recent years. So plan is to retrieve the zip from the old cover and fit it on the new one...

I'm sure I've seen this in Boots with the other La Roche Skincare, otherwise the Pharmacy further down Shop St (Just up from Cafe Express) do a massive range of french skincare brands.

The Oslo in Salthill and the Salt House on Ravens terrace used to have one. They change their beers regularly so they might not have it anymore but they're probably your best shot of getting it in a pub

You'll find Estrella's Daura in a lot of pubs, it tastes like a fairly standard lager. Lidl also sell it. I've seen it in the likes of The Galway Arms so I think it's carried by one of the main distributors.

I went gluten free for a short while recently and was interested to see what The Oslo had to offer (not a lager fan, prefer ales/stouts) but all they had available was Daura. Didn't try the Salthouse.

The other option is cider. But if pubs clearly don't have any, ask anyway so it'll build awareness of the demand. If it's just a mild intolerance then worth looking up the gluten levels in a range of beers, they vary hugely - but that's for another thread.

gordongekko · 02-05-2014 3:44pm

Can anyone recommend a decent pvc window repair man. I don't want someone trying to get me to change all the Windows in the house. Just someone to service what I have.
