Any parent/coach/manager should insist mouthguards are worn, I would still have my two front teeth if I had one.

Noticing a strange noise when gently braking. Sounds like something sliding underneath the engine area. Like a metal plate or something. I can feel it under my feet. Kind of reminds me of the noise you'd get if you hadn't just put the car in gear properly, and it slips out again.

I don't get this noise if I have to brake harder. It's only really when I'm turning or slowly approaching junctions etc.

Brakes working fine. As is the gearbox. Any ideas?

I have my car in the "shop" right now and this sounds similar to my problem.

Can you hear it or feel it when turning to a certain side or both?
My car's Wheel Bearing Assembly was shot in the driver front and rear passenger sides. Parts are not too expensive but the labor is, because if they "do it right"  the assembly has to be pressed into the spindle on the rear and the whole wheel "area" has to be removed. Thankfully my brother is a mechanic.

Armagh getting their share of them too.

So far Tyrone are the better team, I'm not disputing that but Tyrone are getting their frees a lot easier with yellow cards to Armagh players

Tyrone have a better support strategy on both ends of the field. Armagh looked confused in the first half and are now getting their plays on offense together.

Whats the best way to get to Listowel from Dublin Airport for a group of 12-15 (mostly seniors)?

Looking at bus/train service.
