Just struck me, I'm having a quiet Dublin Christmas at home. I recently realised how hard it was/is to get a cat minder/feeder in Dublin. So offering a service! I have my own three felines! 1 / 2

Less than a week left to order pre-Christmas prints from www.ciaraioch.com going to the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand if you want to send them there as gifts for loved ones. If you want them as gifts for disliked ones, order them after this so they'll arrive too late, that'll annoy them.
📌 Lil' note: ciaraioch.com is now taking Christmas orders for prints, gift cards and value bundles - each archival-quality print on textured heavy paper is made in Ireland, shipped in eco-friendly packaging with discount tracked postage available, and comes with free mini-treats for every customer 🎁

Has anyone received a polling card yet? Nobody I've asked at work has one. I know they are not necessary but people think they are and won't go to vote. #GE24

Picked up this straying cat in Drumcondra: she/he has been hanging around the local newsagent for 48 hours. The local Facebook groups are trying to find the owner. Red collar but no name or number. Anyway, she's been fed, watered & has a warm bed. My Puca cat is outraged at this intruder.

‘Outsourcing of police work’ – civil rights watchdog raises concerns over Garda release of Dublin riots ‘persons of interest’ images
The decision by the gardaí to publish images of 99 “persons of interest” involved in the Dublin riots is an “outsourcing of police work” and may lead to people being ‘doxxed’, a spokesperson for the Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) has said.

Looking for gardeners to follow here on Blue Sky too. My Dublin garden has been my pet project since I moved back from London and bought the house in 2020. The Ma and Aunt were great plantswomen and I picked up some of their know-how. Always want to learn too...

www.rte.ie/news/ireland... genuine question. Why are we still paying tolls on this road? I’m sure it’s more than paid for itself
27 drivers fined almost €600k over unpaid M50 tolls
Twenty-seven motorists have received "draconian" fines of almost €600,000 after failing to appear in court for overdue M50 tolls, including a woman who made 1,000 journeys without paying.
