    "We're not f*cking Burundi" - Big Phil

    Comment


      Think that kiosk went for £400k in the boom. Also can the Times not manage to get through the first sentence without a typo/shit grammar these days?

        Was that not the one on Leeson street?

          Nope, because I'm totally wrong! It was in fact £132,000 in 1989 and was Ireland's most expensive land per square foot at the time.

            No idea. I just remember the news bite at the time of it being Ireland's most expensive property per square foot, but didn't do so well on remembering the price

              According to here its about €26k per year for a decent sized billboard. For €330k they get this prominent billboard with a coffee shop attached. Must be close to €50k value per year from the billboard alone. I can't imagine they'd have any problem extracting another €50k profit from the location as well. So using admittedly made-up numbers, for €330k they could be getting €100k per year in value. Bargain of a lifetime so.
              If it cost €50k for a billboard there doesn't mean it's worth €50k. I'm not sure a billboard adds much to their brand given they are already everywhere. Similar to McDonalds, the sign is only useful if there's a shop nearby. But I'd say they clear 50k profit easy. That's probably only 100 cups a day.

                  Since I met wife I have lost Mum, Dad, neice, 3 Uncles and one Aunt whilst no one has passed away on her side in all that time.
                  Today she got news that her mother has cancer at 89 yrs old and now needing MRI scan to see extent and if she is able to cope with surgery.
                  Empathy and words feel useless.

                    An initial £46.5m is the price. Just need to hold on to Sanchez and Ozil, and bring in another big name or 2 and then we can battle it out for 4th spot again!

                      Yeah and it runs on OxygenOS as well.

                                The last week I've had a bunch of Operational Excellence/Improvement/Efficiency/Whateveryourcompanycallsit roles come up in the various sites I subscribe to for jobs in Dublin. Seems to be the in thing given the abundance of them.

                                Raoul you are kinda in that industry aren't you? Whats happening? Any insight?
                                This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
                                All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

                                    Hopefully this mastes degree in lean will be worth something for this type of position.

                                                  can have a look over that thesis if you want btw. There's a lot of standard stuff thats universal to all MSc dissertations in business like:
                                                  - does the literature review lead to a valid research question
                                                  - is the methodology likely to answer the research question
                                                  - is the methodology appropriately supported and applied
                                                  - is the analysis of the tests carried out well
                                                  Cheers Hitch, will look to take you up on that if dont end up putting it in the bin.

                                                        Been a while since we talked about towels.

I did it in like 10 days instead of 6 months with the primary research focused on Gimmeabreak(my thesis was on boylesports).I didn't help myself either with my grading lecturer. After 6 months she had to ask a few students who I was as I never went to the weekly meeting which was worth 5% I really didn't like my college choice and never tried

I would have thought it would be difficult to maximise the return on your educational and experience investment staying where you are. Or maybe you're on the MD path where you are and don't need to make any external moves...

                                                                                            Canggu for 5 days has been the best to this point, cool cafes, nice beaches and the hotel; Sedasa Lodge has 10 rooms, super clean, they cleaned the room at any time in case you wanted a lie in and drove you most places within a few miles, would recommend.

                                                                                            Ubud was good, climbed Mt Batur at 2am for the sunrise, 400-500 people do it every day, lots of Julia Roberts Eat Pray Love types around so was as expected, drove past the Monkey Forest, seen a few monkeys which was enough for me. We visited the Green school https://www.greenschool.org which was cool to see, every donor has their name/organisation etched somewhere in the school. 75% international and 25% local scholarships which is what the tour fees cover which was nice.

                                                                                            We've just arrived in Seminyak which is very westernized, more than I expected tbh, we're here for another 5 nights, I'd probably prefer Canggu more on first impressions at least, quieter beach and more relaxed with lots of great food too, Seminyak for shopping, eating, clubbing and Ubud for activities and finding yourself etc.

                                                                                            We've gone way over budget but you could definitely do it very cheap, worth a visit for definite.
