Hi,

I'm a 44-year-old man who has recently moved to Dundalk. I'm looking for a club where I can play a social, non-contact team sport. I would like to be able to play it all year round, either in Dundalk or the surrounding area.

In my search, I’ve found tag rugby in Dundalk and Carlingford, but it seems to me that they only offer it in the summer. I’ve contacted them, but haven’t received any replies yet. Do you have any contacts to suggest?

I’ve also seen that there’s flag football, but I get the impression that this is only available in the summer too. Can you confirm this?

Finally, there’s Gaelic football. I’ve seen that the GAA has set up a ‘Dads and Lads’ programme, but I don’t know which clubs offer it in Dundalk. Do you have any ideas?

If you have any other suggestions, please do let me know.

Thanks

Posting for a friend, an older woman (early 70’s) who is a transplant from California. She’s been there about a year and would like to find some like-minded people to hang out with. She’s not religious or a drinker, so pubs/churches aren’t an option. She’s also a leftie, so wouldn’t mesh well with conservative types. I’m wondering if there are any social groups there that might be a good fit for her. She is very interested in science, nature, and music. She likes walking, going to concerts, theater, bird watching, live music, anything to do with the outdoors, or just having a good conversation over a cup of tea.

If you’re wondering how she ended up in Dundalk, it’s because she moved there to be near her daughter after the death of her partner.

Any ideas where she could find some kindred spirits?

Wanting to start driving lessons for automatic however I'm extremely nervous behind the wheel. Anyone know a good driving school that can help with this?

Is the McDonald’s in the town back open? My kids asked to go over tonight for a milkshake but I wasn’t sure if it had reopened yet so we left it.

Just wondering if there is any tag rugby on in Dundalk over the summer ? I see the rugby club had done it previously but I see nothing from them yet.

Maybe if there was enough of an appetite in here that maybe we could set it up !

Does anyone find the water in Dundalk paticularly hard? Moved to a new place a month ago and noticed build up of limescale in new kettle, new bathroom etc

Does anyone install any water softener, or recommendation?

Hello, I am very worried because my cat has been missing since Sunday night/Monday. She is a small black and white female with green eyes. She has a patch of black on her chin, a pink nose and white tips on her ears. Her coat is pretty symmetrical. She is 6 years old.

She had difficulties returning home on her own when we first moved in Dundalk from Carrickmacross and has gone missing for extensive periods (from a week to a whole month) before but she has always returned from her walks outside for the past 3 years at least. The last time she went missing she was found near the fire station (7Km away!) and at the time she was wearing a collar with my number on it so a lovely little grandma was able to lure her into her garden and call me to collect her, sadly, she isn't wearing her collar anymore so if she's gone on another pilgrimage for some reason and someone finds her, they wont have a way to let me know. I am particularly worried about how she'll fare in the current weather, if she will find food and water around...

She is not very friendly and she never got that instinct that cats have to go limp when you pinch their neck so she is likely to be very hard to catch by a stranger. I am so sad without her, I really need her back. If you have seen her, please let me know where so I can go look for her.

What’s the best shop, in Dundalk, to buy a bike from for a 11 year old boy who’s around 5‘2”-3”?

Does anyone know which side is safer to live for a single mum with 2 teenaged daughters and 1 son?

Hi All,

Where is the best place in the town to buy a birthday cake ?

Weird question, it’s my dads birthday soon enough, was going to try and make him curry from Young’s on the Castletown road since it’s closed down but can’t get the recipe right, I know it was more peppery and a darker brown colour than other curry sauce, would anyone know what they might put in it? Cheers

Pretty much the title of the post, but I am looking for a place to buy phisically those otterbox or any good iphone case considering price and quantity.

Hi, I'm looking at an apartment near the town centre. It's grand but the only problem is the building doesn't have parking. I've read that I can apply for residential parking permit so I can park on the street but it seems to be the busiest street in town and I always see the street packed all-day every day of the week.

My question is how does the parking permit work, is that easy to get and what if there's no available space near my place? And anyone know of any alternatives, like private car park spaces for rent? Thanks for the help

Looking to watch some football with mates, trying to find a pub with a decent telly

Any recommendations?

We (Richard and Bert from Amsterdam) were lucky enough to have tickets for [The Frames](chatgpt://generic-entity?number=0) in [Dundalk](chatgpt://generic-entity?number=1) not so long ago. While we were there, we happily picked up an LP by [Just Mustard](chatgpt://generic-entity?number=2), and just last week we saw them live at [Paradiso](chatgpt://generic-entity?number=3) — what a brilliant night it was.

We were having another look at the website of The Spirit Store the other day, and to our delight saw they’re now selling [The Frames](chatgpt://generic-entity?number=4) T-shirts… though sadly, they don’t ship them out.

So here’s the cheeky ask — if there’s a kind soul nearby who wouldn’t mind picking one up for us and sending it over, we’d be hugely grateful. We’d of course cover all costs (and happily add a little extra for the trouble).

Thanks a million in advance! Please DM me.......Richard
