Having your take away delivered by drone could soon become the norm in Ireland.

Manna, a drone delivery service, has been delivering food and drink for the past few months in Balbriggan.

It now plans to role out the service to another Dublin suburb later this year.

CEO of Manna, Bobby Healy, says drone delivery will be commonplace across the country within a few years:
