    Bottom line is this thing needs significant action, if for no other reason than thousands are dying horrible deaths over there because of it.
    yeah but fucking water charges!

        Because X doesn’t roll like that, because X can’t be pinned down!

              Hmmmmm I was more on about the dwarf.......


              You will get there eventually, unlike the dwarf reaching his pockets.

                Had my first ever meeting with a pension advisor there. He grimaced immensely when I mentioned Vanguard and was pushing me into active funds, as well as offering automated emails with performance every quarter/month/week. I was always more inclined towards lumping it all into passive equity funds for most of its life and forgetting about it; is that unusual

                traders aren't very good at beating the market after costs imo

                          It does work though, but I'd recommend using a different name to Bart Simpson, I'd be sure Bart Simpson would work, but might be taking the piss out of the flawed system a little too much.

                                    His fee is only .25% though (and 100% allocation), which seems strangely low for someone that is looking to be fairly active. Zurich funds are .75, so 1% overall unless there's some hidden extra.

                                      I may be moving house soon (my first move north of the Liffey, to Fairview) and have been picking up bits and bobs for my computer room/man cave. Took advantage of SatNav posting about hellocanvas.ie's sale to order a big canvas last night, using this image:

                                      DeviantArt is the world's largest online social community for artists and art enthusiasts, allowing people to connect through the creation and sharing of art.


                                      Very nerdy but should go along with the computer game-inspired prints I've also ordered over the past few weeks, found some awesome ones here: http://society6.com/prints. Bioshock, Fallout, Skyrim, all of my favourites are going up onto the walls

                                      Really like that Banksy stuff; that second one posted above should look great as a canvas.

                                              There's been a few different canvas sites mentioned, which one's best? Really tempted to get something to replace the awful Jack Vettriano prints that seem to be in every place I rent. Recommendations welcome!

I would have thought modern tailoring would have solved that so that their pockets are proportionately the same travel distance for their hands as for regular size people's trousers. Like surely the first clothing manufacturer to make reachable pockets for dwarves would corner the entire dwarf trouser market.

                                                  Not sure which one is the best but I think Emmet mentioned one a few days back that is having an 80% sale at the moment.

                                                      Depends, they're all basically the same though surely?

                                                      Picanova have fairly unbeatable deals if you're after a Monster sized canvas print at the moment.

                                                      I have an Aluminium print of one of Danny's photos from them and it's top top notch. Am considering getting some of the monster canvases, just need some very high res images for inspiration really!

                                                          My aul fella told me about the first time he went to the States in the 70s. They were out a baseball game one evening and he heard the people around him talking about how the mosquitoes were out tonight. His only experience of the mention of mosquitoes was the mosquitoes that carried malaria in Africa. He obviously didn't have any shots or anything so stood there worried that one bite from a mosquito would basically mean his death. Obviously the Irish politeness and fear of complaining meant he couldn't leave or anything, just stand there and pray he managed to avoid being bitten by a mosquito.

A McNulty victory would obviously have been the nut result for FG, Kenny immediately calls on McNulty to resign the seat "in the interest of democracy" and FG walk the by-election and take a majority in the Seanad.

Took advantage of SatNav posting about hellocanvas.ie's sale to order a big canvas last night, using this image:

                                                                Very nerdy but should go along with the computer game-inspired prints I've also ordered over the past few weeks, found some awesome ones here: http://society6.com/prints. Bioshock, Fallout, Skyrim, all of my favourites are going up onto the walls

                                                                Really like that Banksy stuff; that second one posted above should look great as a canvas.
                                                                Can't see your post as website blocked in work

They were out a baseball game one evening and he heard the people around him talking about how the mosquitoes were out tonight. His only experience of the mention of mosquitoes was the mosquitoes that carried malaria in Africa. He obviously didn't have any shots or anything so stood there worried that one bite from a mosquito would basically mean his death. Obviously the Irish politeness and fear of complaining meant he couldn't leave or anything, just stand there and pray he managed to avoid being bitten by a mosquito.

                                                                                    Gf changed jobs a while back. Was still in training period of job1 when accepted job offer from job2. When handed in her notice, explicitly said to job1 that she was available to work her notice, though given it was due to be a week of training, she was happy to work in the store (experienced hire -> retail, had already been trained on tills etc) instead of doing the managerial training week that they had planned. They advised it wouldn't be necessary and that she wouldn't have to work her notice.

                                                                                    Fast forward and a claim from job1 has arrived asking for cash back for overpayment, along with advice that debt will be passed on to a collection agency. (cunt move)

                                                                                    I've told her to play soft and re-emphasize that as she made herself available for work for her notice period, but they didn't give her any hours, and so owes nothing. Am I right in saying this?

                                                                                    Big international company so unsurprising if one channel isn't on the same page as the other when it comes to the situation. Accountants probably just see a red number etc.

                                                                                    Comment

                                                                                      Ultimately, sounds like she was paid for a weeks work she didn't do so she's essentially the one looking for an oversight in terms of what she signed. Their position seems reasonable even if their approach sucks.

                                                                                                    Can they download to a PC and transfer software to the phone? Or no internet access at all?
                                                                                                    I'm not sure how to do it without an app, and I've left work so the smart people can't solve it for me.

                                                                                                    Perhaps a phone shop could assist, they have been known to transfer things for technologically impaired.

                                                                                                    My googling suggestion is to go for something like "transfer contacts from android to iphone" as apps would not be used there in some cases (presumably). Or "blackberry" snigger.

                                                                                                                        So... So far so good

They are more afraid of you than you are of them. Chelsea is a grand old spot, should have had a few in Brogans, nice Irish pub. Pretty sure the firms from 20 years ago won't be knocking around the stadium on the look out for Irish Wear your tricolour next time.

                                                                                                                        Meant to be a cool venue. Shneak a Shnakey naggin in. Probably 20 pound for a drink.
