- there's this thing apparently, where in france it is compulsory to have a breathalyser, warning triangle and reflective jacket in your car. For you french, you probably already do i'm guessing? but what about those who are not and have driven over to france? i'd like to hear some tips regarding this..
They will make you buy one at the checkpoint if they see you do not have one for about 3 times the price that you can get one here.
Yes, they do check. -
cheers alex. you probably knew i was gonna ask "do they check" as well. hahaha.

Is there an easier/ faster way to get to Ireland than take the ferry from Cherbourg to Rosslare?.. Dover => London => Manchester or Liverpool => Dublin seems like it would take a lot longer (especially without a car)…
And no: flying's not an option.
I'd catch the train to Brussels Zuidstation / Gare du Midi, then catch the Eurostar over to London. This would arrive into St Pancras station, I think that it's a four hour journey.
From St Pancras you can either catch the Underground (one stop) or walk to Euston (about half a kilometre), then catch the train to Holyhead, which will take about another four hours. From there it'd be the ferry across the Irish Sea to Dublin, which Google Maps says is another four hours.
Alternative you could take the ferry from the Hoek van Holland to Harwich, which I've used a few times. It's easier to do it overnight than during the day as it's a boring trip. There's a railway station at the terminal, and you can get to London in about an hour and a half, but you'll need to get from Liverpool Street to Euston, which is less convenient than from St Pancras.

Question for you iphone tech nerds: I now have an iphone 7 but for some reason there are 2 apps showing up in my apps store that need updating that won't update. They are the Clips app and the Apple Store app. Tapping the 'update' button yields nothing. Any ideas how to fix this?
-
Close all apps. Power off phone. Power up phone and try to update. Had sam on my 7 which cleared all but apple store. Had to take it in for that one.
-
Hmmm. Still not working. Not the biggest deal but kind of annoying staring at those two updates showing up in my app store app
-
Ok, got it to work now. It wouldn't update from the app store, so I tapped on the icon that shows up on my phone and updated it that way

Cool beans. Warm farts!

Sorry i just saw the post. As ive only been once to frankfurt years ago i cant be of much help but i see @Steffen covered it perfect. -
that's alright. thanks anyway. i know there's quite a few germans here but of the top of my head you 3 were the only ones i knew for sure..

Youre welcome @louisbosco tell him if he has the time to visit Markt im Hof in Today, really cool Event:
Easy to Connect with a Museum in Sachenhausen and some Gelato at Bizzi Ice or Eis Cafe Milano. Sachsenhausen is the lets say Hip Part of Town at the moment (over the River Main Bridge) with lots of coole stores and cafes.
-
Thank you @louisbosco and @Steffen.
I greatly appreciate your recommendations in the various places in Frankfurt.
Just a days trip as I would be leaving for US. Hopefully I'll be able to visit a couple of Museums and also some Market with good Curry Wurst! -
Anyone having display issues on mobile devices in far flung parts of the world?
Does the US count? We are talking the store or the forum? Both look fine on my Pixel 2, though the forum is not responsive and doesn't adapt to mobile devices like the store.
