      I think we should definitely celebrate that lots of poor people are being denied the chance to have a fractionally better life 20 miles further north.

                      This is it. He hasn't even had a chance to get the wall going yet and just by his words basically has decreased the illegals.
                      Wow, even for you!

                      His words would have increased the traffic if anything

                              Has anyone watched Sense8? I just saw it mentioned on Twitter and see that the writers/directors of the Matrix are involved along with the creator of Babylon 5. Seems to have good reviews also...

                                Was looking forward to it but after just coming back from a three day wedding, we've decided to head off to Ibiza for a few days to chill out so won't be back in time for it.

                                PM me if anybody is interested
                                Bump, looks like this didn't sell out and there is quite a few tickets left.

                                If anybody wants them FOC, let me know and I'll pass them on rather than them go to waste.

                                  His form has been poor I think anyhows. Warner’s abd Smith’s behaviors was beyond dumb bloody cameras everywhere. Stokes got bought for 1.4 million not bad fir a couple of months work. He should probably stop bashing people on the street.

                                    Just back from seeing Chicago house music legend Lil Louis in a Boiler Room/Mixmag Lab-style event in the Button Factory as part of a short tour he's doing to promote a new project.

                                    So you hand in your phone when you go in, get an 'envelope receipt' with a lyric sheet for 10 tracks (songs) and you are supposed to mark how much you'd like the tracks on the sheet which you'd have to give back on the way out.

                                    Sounds like at total pain in the hole but once it got moving you could see why they did it.

                                    Basically the event was a demonstration of an elaborate concept about six albums Louis was about to release distilled from 1,600 tracks he'd written over the last 6 years or so and mostly after a breakup and some after his mother's death.

                                    He explained the concept involving a cast characters (animated and hanging from the ceiling) and started playing the suite of tracks, pausing after each one briefly to introduce the next.

                                    The flavour veered from disco to acid, including some soulful house and plenty of frantic electro-vocoder breaks and he had 100 people hopping at 10.30 on a Thursday night.

                                    It was a clever marketing tactic for what appears be a significant event in modern electronic dance music. If he releases the albums in the right way he might pull it off.

                                        Flip flopped a fair bit on whether to go to that and didn't in the end. Last couple of times I've seen him were pretty tedious with constant vocal samples reminding everyone that he's the godfather of house.

                                        Glad it wasn't a disaster

                                          If anyone is in London on the 12th April, and wants to go and see Nathaniel Rateliff and the night sweats, I've got two tickets I'm happy to sell cheaply. Bought them 6 months ago, but can't go as my leg is still broken.

                                            Completely forgot about the New Model Army tickets for this day week. Do you know of anyone that would use them, FOC. I would need to be posting them by Monday. If not i will stick them on a fan forum for free.

                                                    The Hitch view that basically you can’t be a successful self made billionaire without greasing a few palms because that’s what DOB had to do is pretty farfetched. Just because he’s a household name doesn’t mean others can’t be just as successful but get it quietly and without making waves in the media.

                                                                    My misses watched a bit more but she thought it got a bit preachy about people being anti trans and same sex relationships which was distracting from the storyline and ran it down some pretty pointless avenues - she is quite pc so it must have gotten annoying.

                                                                    Not one for the murrays in short but does seem to get good reviews and has at least one renewal so maybe focuses a bit more as they get into it.

                                                                                                    edit: I mean who's your chart made for? If you're short-term enough that you care about opens, closes and the that specific move, then the chart doesn't show enough detail to be useful, and if you're a long-term holder it's completely useless. It can only be for shock value.

                                                                                                            BER rating guy on the way out now. I'd say I'll be lucky to wind up with an E rating, more than likely an F or G. House is just too old.

Nothing like the sweat of the auctioneer finally telling you asking price. Application for planning permission on another place underway too but it's looking like a pain already.

                                                                                                                I'm in the process of getting our shit together to buy a house.
                                                                                                                As Mrs DP's dad is on his own, we were planning on selling that house and using the money + whatever we borrow to get somewhere where we can all live together. Aside from the culture shock of have a 70odd yr old housemate, I'm all for this as he's pretty isolated at the moment.
                                                                                                                I'm not sure how to go about it in such a way that wont cost us all a bomb in tax and mess up first time buyers stuff as well.
                                                                                                                People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

Well done sir!

I do need some outside support though hence why I didn't say anything negative about the russians.

                                                                                                                  Seriously though, its really helpful for me,I have to hammer down into my thoughts and put them in a clear and concise manner. The game is becoming more and more complicated but it is just a game with 30 people chasing a ball around a field. So by being able to explain the why is important. Why do we do these things in these areas. There's not much content or resources out there like that globally.

                                                                                                                  Ireland is very lucky in that it has some of the best rugby content in the world available to us through print and online media. Most other places are still 10 - 15 years behind where it needs to be for the modern global game.

                                                                                                                    Can't help with the tax side - there are better qualified people - but your father-in-law can't own any of the new property for you to qualify for the help-to-buy scheme. So he would, in effect, have to sell his home and then gift you the entirety of the proceeds while simultaneously signing away any right he might have to a benefit in the property you then purchase with that money.

                                                                                                                    The Bank are going to have a problem with it too as they'll see him having a beneficial interest and he'll have to sign a couple of forms to confirm he's waiving that. Probably will need independent legal advice for that too.

                                                                                                                    Given the sums in play here I'd say it would be well worth your while sitting down with your solicitor and working this out ahead of time and certainly before any applications are made to Revenue or to a bank for funds.

                                                                                                                          I'm in the process of getting our shit together to buy a house.
                                                                                                                          As Mrs DP's dad is on his own, we were planning on selling that house and using the money + whatever we borrow to get somewhere where we can all live together. Aside from the culture shock of have a 70odd yr old housemate, I'm all for this as he's pretty isolated at the moment.
                                                                                                                          I'm not sure how to go about it in such a way that wont cost us all a bomb in tax and mess up first time buyers stuff as well.

                                                                                                                          Your FIL sells up and gifts his daughter an amount of money (which will count against her inheritance limits). She then combines this with your family savings and gets mortgage approval with you and you buy somewhere. FIL has no claim on the new house but does come and live with you both.

                                                                                                                          The tricky thing is to make sure that your FIL is happy and mentally capable to decide to do this (that is to have no formal entitlement to live in the new house etc) and that no other siblings are in the mix to get upset about an inheritance "loss" and get it all done legally in advance of making any house bids etc.

                                                                                                                          The other challenge is your FIL will have to come live with you before ye buy the new house and that could be a period of 6-12 months before you actually buy a place. You may need to rent a bigger place in the interim in the interests of domestic harmony.
