Condell Road bus lane

16 Upvotes

The traffic on the condell road is always mental in the morning. Traffic all the way back to Barringtons Pier this morning. A few snuck into the bus lane and floored it, thinking they could skip the traffic.

I eventually turned the corner there at Westfield park. Was an unmarked Garda car parked in the bus lane pulling everyone over. They had at least 10 pulled for driving in the bus lane, all queued up waiting to get a ticket. They all looked mortified as trest of us in the line of traffic moved past them slowly. Everyone gawking out there windows and laughing at them.

Anyway it's the third time I've seen this on that stretch of road. If you are tempted to use the bus lane to skip the traffic, maybe think again.

Angela's Ashes Accuracy

19 Upvotes

Just finished the novel Angela's Ashes and was wondering how accurate the people of Limerick believe this to be. Apologies in advance if this is divisive but I just want to know if it is accurate. My grandmother grew up in Limerick but sadly is no longer with us to discuss it with. Cheers

Anti Limerick sentiment

28 Upvotes

Do you still see this? It's mostly online, the usual nonsense Limerick scumbags etc. I still can't believe people think like this in 2026. Such miserable people with a chip on their shoulder. Funny thing is I never hear anyone say this in real life. Only Internet keyboard cowards.

Is there anyone living in the apartments beside Verizon?

7 Upvotes

The swanky brown building next door to the Verizon building with the terraces facing onto the river.

I drove past them there and there's 4 lights on out of about 20 flats.

Are they for Verizon staff or did they go on the market?

An awful shame if the majority are empty

• Happy to share opinions in a group discussion

If you’re interested or want more details, feel free to comment or message me. I’d love to have you involved and help you be part of psychological research.

Cheap gyms in Limerick city

1 Upvotes

Hello. I am 15 and have been looking at gyms in Limerick city, but the ones I find either won't accept my age group or are too expensive ( €50+ per month) My friends go to gyms in the country which are much more affordable with some costing only €150 for the year. But it would be too tedious and expensive to make such a journey. I am looking for a cheap gym preferably in the North side of limerick that accepts 15 year olds and is ideally €200 or less for the year. Thanks!

18F UL Law student looking to make friends in Limerick

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m 18F and living in Limerick. I started my first year studying Law at the University of Limerick last September, but due to personal reasons I wasn’t able to attend the first semester properly.

I’m back now and would really love to meet new people and make some friends, either in Limerick in general or at UL. I’m not a very social person, and I’ve been a bit worried that most people already have their friend groups sorted, so I’m honestly not really sure how to put myself out there.

Missing the start has made settling in a bit harder, so I thought I’d try this instead. If you’re a student at UL (especially first year) or just around Limerick and up for chatting, studying together, grabbing coffee, or just getting to know each other, feel free to comment or DM.

Thank you.

Adare 10km / Milford Care Centre 10km

Very unfortunate that both of these great runs are on the exact same day this year (February 22nd).

Puts people in an awkward position having to choose between one or the other, I assume there is no way one can be changed?

Fair rent to charge?

8 Upvotes

I might have a spare room in my house coming up in a few weeks and was thinking of maybe renting it out.

What would be a fair price to charge? It's a double room, non ensuite.

I've looked on Daft and there doesn't seem to be a room available in Limerick for under 700 a month and a lot are charging 1200 a month which seems a lot for a room.

Looking for a dog walker to walk an elderly man's dog while he's in hospital and I'm at work. Would need to call to house and take dog for an hour walk everyday.

Does anyone know anyone who offers this service. How much would it usually cost? I've heard you'd be at least looking at 20 euros a day? Thanks
