Is there not something called a Redbook / Bluebook something like that? The thing that car dealers use to price cars. Might be just a US thing.

Yeah I was looking for something like that but blue book Ireland seems to be about hotels

Going on holiday tomorrow and got a notification that my flight to the US was cancelled. Checked the airline page, nothing. Checked the airport departures page and sure enough there it said cancelled. Rang United who said that it wasn't cancelled so I was really annoyed and hopeful at the same time. Seems to have been a false alarm though and anywhere it said cancelled is now changed to scheduled again. Not sure what happened there, but as long as it actually goes I don't mind.

Brother won best thesis of the year at graduartion.Fourth of these under the belt. Leiden is like a fairy tale. Some lad with a sword walking around handing out degrees. Some room where every student never has signed the wall, pretty cool

Must say, although I have consistently labelled Hilary as a weak candidate, she just gave a great speech in North Carolina.

Some contrast with Trump's inarticulate boorishness.

@Emmet: found your bright shiny pad yet?

lol

herself has put an offer in on a 'perfect' place today 'with one small issue'.

Issue? - says I

"Well, the shower is over the bath, and the ceiling is quite low there, but the guy fitting the new floor measured it for me and it's 68 inches from the bath to the ceiling. I tried it and I fit fine. Will you fit?"

I am no giant, though also not a midget. 2 years of bowed showers here we come.

[oleras]

Shower issue sorted.

Just waiting to get my tickets for the Lions, they go on sale in 3 hours. I think I'll get the Blues and Maori All Blacks.
I missed the third test vs Australia the other day but did bump into a few of the Argentinian players the other week in the gym.
I've entered all the ballots for the All Blacks using a few email addresses but they're suppose to be incredibly hard to get, hopefully get one, preferably Auckland.

I priced up the Trevor Brennon tour a few weeks ago, way out of my price range. One for the bucket list maybe and do 6 weeks over there.

Getting that same feeling of dread as I had in the weeks before Brexit. Look at that the behaviour in those WSOP episodes; all the seemingly civilised articulate reasonable Americans show themselves to be pig ignorant rabble when the pressure comes on.

Young fellow had operations on his Achilles a few years ago to lengthen them, subsequently was in plaster for 6 weeks each time.

He got a B&Q bucket upside down with a towel on top to sit on, none of those fancy stools.

Well I'm living in Auckland the past 2 months, I wouldn't be going otherwise. I wouldn't be a huge fan by any means but it would be ridiculous not to go to as many games as possible while I'm here.

Nissan must have got some deal from May. Would have to be some sort of a guarantee on future European sales that hedges against tariffs. You'd have to admire the kind of Dunkirk spirit at play, dunno if it will be enough in the long run but the general determination to make the best of a bad lot is impressive.

Have you ever played with William Kassouf? Mother Theresa would let the mask slip after a tilting by that lad. He's the ubertroll.

Is there anything good to be said for Fitbits or are they just trinkets?

Went to see Michael Harding tonight at the Civic theatre in Tallaght, was really enjoyable, felt like I immersed myself in culture. It's quite a joy to listen to him talk those slow, well pronounced Cavan accented words.

Is there anyone here who would have a decent knowledge of the second-hand car market and would be able to give a ballpark value based on make/model/year/mileage?

I'm just looking for a vague idea of what my wagon might be worth...

I used redbook here. I'd have thought there was an irish equivalent

Get the boyfriends name tattood on your face? No bother you still get the same vote as everyone else.

Her boyfriend Ryan Wibberley, a 23-year-old tattoo artist who goes by the name Wibbo, claims he has persuaded 39 ex-girlfriends to get his name tattooed on them.

Dafuq?

You should try it with The Butterfly Effect 3D.

[Keane]

That seems to be a directory of marketing companies here unfortunately. At least the bluebook pointed out a few hotels that look nice!

[gorrrr72]

Is there not something called a Redbook / Bluebook something like that? The thing that car dealers use to price cars. Might be just a US thing.

The US one is Kelly Blue Book and it's all online (and also in book for for dealers), it's a great tool which I use quite a bit.

Yeah I was looking for something like that but blue book Ireland seems to be about hotels

There is a book in Ireland but it's only for subscribers and you have to be a car dealer to subscribe.
We used to get a new book every month for each salesperson when I was working in a main dealer in Dublin a few years ago.
Have you tried CBG valuation?

https://www.cbg.ie/value-my-car

I still have contacts in the business if you really want a valuation but to be honest with you the book values are open to enough of a margin that you should be able to figure it out.
Why do you need such an accurate valuation? You selling or trading it in?

2 suicides in 2 days around me. Small place. Knew one of them.

The brain can get sick too. If you feel like shit, talk to a doctor m8s. Can be fixed.

[NewApproach]

I'm far from a Clare Daly fan but this judge seems like a power hungry prick. http://www.irishtimes.com/news/polit...kKKG2M.twitter

[NewApproach]

@keane, why do you need a valuation? If trying to sell it just pitch it a bit below what's on carzone and reduce the price weekly until it sells. Bear in mind 99%of stuff for sale on carzone is only still 'for sale' on the basis it's overpriced at present.

A very delicate subject but it's not always that simple Chad. Sometimes talking can seem like the hardest thing in the world to do even tho it's not. I've lost m8s to suicide and the only thing we hope is that whatever they were trying to deal with got so bad that they think they're in a better place now.
