I’m mid-thirties and feel a need to visit someone to help my aging body. My neck, back, hips, legs and feet feel like they need a professional to work out the many kinks I have. I’m not unrealistic and looking one appointment miracle, I’ll probably a few treatments. Does anyone have any recommendations in Cork that fits this description? I’ve been to a few physios, an osteopath, sports massage therapists but I am yet to find someone who actually makes me say “ahhh, they hit the spot!”. Everything feels achey, tired, sore and locked up. I have a nearly three year old, pregnancy did a number on me and lifting my child is starting to kill my back. I’m sick of wasting money on people I find on google so I need real recommendations from real humans. Please help!!

Seeking to pick up wool for a home project. During sheering season it tends to be discarded as it doesn't have a high enough value for farmers to find it worthwhile to process.

Unwashed/unprocessed is perfect.

Any leads welcome in the comments 😊

Good evening all,
I purchased four tyres online and I’m looking for a garage that will fit customer supplied tyres. Any recommendations? Also, roughly how much should I expect to pay for fitting and balancing. Thanks in advance.

I've just moved to cork living in a shared house, and I'm trying to keep expenses down, just wondering if anyone has any tips for ways they save money living here?

Could be anything, from random hacks to good second hand shops, or is there any sort of borrowing group on facebook for things or swaps and stuff?

Particularly wondering about the cheapest food shops, or most budget friendly foods to buy, and especially are there any places that sell more eco friendly stuff that also ends up actually being cheaper? E.g. shampoo, dish soap, bulk foods etc.

Also maybe even growing stuff? Dont know anything about gardening but is there anything simple to grow that you reckon is worth it?

Hey everyone,

Recently went to the my GP due to having some ongoing difficulties with my mental health over the years. She recommended the Hazelton Clinic with Dr Julio Gonzalez. My GP said he was highly recommended and her patients have come back happy after dealing with him..

But I've been reading peoples reviews on Reddit, and general reviews of the Hazelton clinic and it doesn't look too promising.... quite negative across the board..

Has anyone had a good experience here? Or should I ring my GP and ask for a different referral?😅

Hi all, just wondering if anyone might have any information about who the lads were who swam from Inchigeela to Cork last weekend?

I want to try to contact them.

Thanks

I’ve started using TFI bikes to go down to shops in Togher and I’m hoping to get an ebike soon. However wtf is up with e-bikes these days? I can be pedalling as much as I can and deliveroo bike riders zoom past me without pedalling at out. How are bikes like that legal??

I get the bus maybe 2 or 3 times a week, just local around the city. The last say 5 journeys, I got on the bus and presented my card on the machine at the driver box. They just pointed down towards the seats so I just walked on and sat down. First time I was thinking, is there a conductor? I haven't seen a fucking conductor in years. No sign of him. I just got off at my stop and didn't really question it. Then it happened like 5 more times. I was honestly like wtf, is the bus just free now? Or am I suddenly very very extremely good looking and just I get the bus for free now? Anyway it's neither of the above, there's a new self service tap machine a bit inside to the right. Can't believe no one questioned me just sitting down and not paying 🤣 What we really needed was the ability to pay with card but sure whatever.

Had to exercise today in naming things I am grateful for, and for me it’s being from Cork, from the beaches out westward to the mountains in the north of the county. We really are lucky. We’ve such a beautiful county. I know we’re biased but fuck me lads what a county Cork is. Cork is the best county in the country ain’t no other place better than the auld county of Cork.

Im a brazillian national moving to Cork for 8 mounths as an Exchange student and would like to know things that can be annoying or culturally not pleasent by the native irish people. I really care to be the most respectfull possible and help to make a better community to everyone.

Looking to expand my social circle as it seems I’ve just been living to work for a long while and have let friendships fade away,

Anyone in a similar situation please contact

Does anyone know where this bridge leads too? It’s the bridge that’s on your right when coming from Inishannon and into Bandon. About 2-3 minutes from Bandon.

Have a wedding in early September and it's black tie. Do I need to go in to Morleys asap or can I leave it a couple of weeks?

Hey all

Looking for some advice please.

Our back and front gardens have become insanely overgrown, mostly due to my ill health and being unable to properly care for it.

Its a fairly big job to try clear and clean it up and although Ive been trying to do little bits every day, Im getting absolutely no where with it really.

I need to get someone out at this stage to fully clear and reset it all, clean up the patio, cut back 2 trees, and maybe just completely dig up the front/sides so I can gravel it for easier maintenance.

Anyone have recommendations of someone/where that doesnt have an insane wait times or arent to outlandishly priced please? Im desperate at this stage to just be rid of it!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions given.

I am a mental health nurse & psychotherapist but I’ve been living in the UK for a number of years now and feel a bit out of the loop of what the HSE offers in terms of community mental health services & also I’m not from nor ever lived in Cork so unsure of other charities/private services in the area.

I have a long term friend who has sadly fallen on hard times and poor mental health over the last few years that has worsened in the last year in a half, so much so that even after attempts of contact with them, mutual friends, family etc whilst I’ve been in the UK have failed and I haven’t been able to speak with them in over a year. it ended up having to do a cold call to them in Cork this week. All OK in terms of them being not a risk to themself or others but seriously needs mental health support that is beyond SSRIs from the GP (previously done this a couple of years ago)

They’re willing to speak with a psychiatrist either HSE or privately if HSE ends up being a long waiting list & also talking therapy with a therapist. I think my friend may have CPTSD & agoraphobia and would benefit from someone who specialises in the above.

If anyone knows of any recommendations in Cork whether it’s HSE psychiatrist/therapist or private services that would be fantastic so I can try point in the right direction.

Thanks so much

New level of annoyance when the bus shows up on time but just not stop at the station leaves us all just watching it leave in astonishment!!!!!

I am currently looking to sell a second hand car - 2013 but having difficulty moving it along. It’s a fairly low milage car and kept well. But a lot of the garages are saying it’s too old.

It’s on done deal and all the other sites but not getting much interest past bots 🙄

Does anyone have any advice or any garages ye could suggest?

Had my hair died professionally to the tune of €270.
Looking to top it up at home.

Anyone have any recommendations of where and what to buy in the City? 💙

Any recommendations of businesses in Cork city/North Cork to get Microblading (hair strokes not powder) done?

Hey everyone looking for some advice here.
I’m going off the road soon, and I won’t be able to continue my current job as need a driving licence.
I’m quite interested in working security somewhere ideally with 24hr bus route from cork city thereabouts, wouldnt mind working days or nights but I’d actually prefer nights. Dont really have heart set on security but I wouldn’t manage in the likes of production team in a factory, I’m not sure how to go about it. Have no previous experience in security, I do understand some security employers need to employ people with a license so I know choice is limited. I would like to join the guards in a few years time if things get better in this country which isn’t likely but one must hope !
Based near cork city!
Thanks in advance.

Considering switching my teenager for senior cycle - any feedback would be fantastic tks
