        We tend to have that effect on the ladies.

        That was a long day. First job I've resigned from since 2000!

            Lol! It’s a pity they didn’t walk you out. Need to be resigning from more jobs in that case!

                        Thankfully I’m leaving a global bank (NT) and getting out of the industry. Thankless life in them.

                                      How much time is standard to wait for a deposit to be given back on a rented house/room.

                                      It was owner occupied, friend of friend type situation. He's a nice guy, good job etc. It was never advertised but always paid via the bank transfer, not cash in hand type thing.

                                      The room was left as found with everything cleaned out, bathroom, fridge etc so there shouldn't be any issues there.

                                        Went to Kendrick Lamar at the 3arena last night. I've been to a ton of hip-hop gigs and he was absolutely phenomenal. Saw him a few years a go and he's really come on leaps and bounds

                                          If the handover was done correctly, ie both parties met, went over the property, handed over the keys, etc. it should be done in the next couple of weeks (being generous).

                                                I generally speaking don't listen to any new hip hop so dismissed him at first but he is definitely worth the hype. Quality albums. Can imagine live was brilliant

                                                  If I didn't have my deposit in a week after moving I'd be making constant phonecalls. In the past I've refused to pay last month's rent and let them keep deposit to avoid any messing. Not always gonna get away with that one though.

                                                    I'm not worried atm, more curious of what's standard practice. I was due to move out last Sunday but moved Saturday instead.

                                                    He hasn't asked me for my bank details, I don't think he has them so I was wondering at what point do I give him a text with my details if I don't hear from him.

                                                    I'll give him till early next week and send him a text if I don't hear from him by then.

                                                      Does he not have them from the bank transfers for rent?

                                                      If not,text him today, "sorry mate, forgot to give you my bank details when I left"

                                                        i agree! I just think 2 weeks is what i'd be happy to give as leeway.

                                                          Do you have the necessary details from receiving a transfer to send a transfer. If so, then yes he has them.

                                                          As I said I'm not worried so I'll give him another while. Once I'm not way off the mark on the standard time frame I'm happy enough to wait.

He didn't realise that potential til a few years ago and it didn't last long. He's more a wasted talent than a legend of anything imo. What could of been. He at least broke the trend of Ireland producing 37 mediocre left wingers a year.

I can multi table 20 tables myself, but stacking multiple Spins like this and trying to concentrate for 12 hours a day would make my brain explode!

Oh think of the children". Facebook won't ruin little Johnny. Lazy, self-centered parents who couldn't be arsed managing their kids internet usage will. Two year olds constantly getting ipads shoved in their face by parents who want the quiet life and time to update their profile.
