Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostI suspect you might be going a bit too Sherlock Holmes on this. The builder you saw going into their house was probably asked to go in to check out the damage. A renter is hardly having a builder going into the house to do work. And even if a builder did cause the damage why would they not claim from him rather than going to all the hassle of getting a neighbour involved and making a criminally false claim.
The renter hardly cares enough to engage in a silly scam for the benefit of her landlady, but presumably she is worried about losing her deposit over something that isn't her fault.
I'd say anyway that's the most likely thing that happened. That the damage was caused by your builders. Not that I know anything about the situation apart from what you've said. And its clearly IKEAs fault, not yours. So their insurance will have to sort it out.Is that how you crash a wedding? yes it is, Bionic Barry, yes it is.

I quite like the front 5 (bar my hate for Walcott) so we could score, but i don't expect us to keep a clean sheet. Small punt on Red Star win both teams to score at 13/2. I honestly have no idea about RSB other than they won 12 of their last 16, and 5 of their last 6 (actually kept clean sheets in those last 5 wins) so yeah, i have no idea

Sound for all the help/advice. This shit wrecks my head. Looks like I could be in Kerry this weekend so may hit Tralee if things work out and I have the time.

business cards with a foiled qr code are the newest thing..go for gold

Out a qr code on that you can swipe when people come on to you ...makes them think it does something or something is happening. Or you can actually store info on a client account ...it's what you say to the person you are selling the card to.Last edited by Guest; 20-10-17, 06:48.

While the BBV is giving out suit advice to dobby, I need to buy 6 white french cuff shirts for me and my groomsmen.
Since I havent worn suits to work in 5 years I am a bit out of the loop but where would people recommend to buy in bulk - since its a week away brick and mortar rather than online.
I obv want to avoid cheap see pretty much see through shirts but also would ideally not drop a fortune on them either.

Is €5.5k a fair/realistic asking price for this car:
A colleague is selling it, bought it for €6k a few months ago and willing to take €5k. Trying to give him advice, my normal strategy when getting rid of something is to price it low to ensure a quick sale, less hassle, less waste of your valuable free time. Not sure if pricing it above the number you're willing to take is good in a circumstance when you want rid pretty quickly.

People in Ireland generally dislike lots of things about that car. Convertible, tax and petrol.
Car finance is so easy to get right now. There are lots of really nice pre 2008 cars that are undervalued because of the tax costs.
If I was to guess they will get approx 3k.
Gorrr would probably give you a good estimate
Just to add I'd probably tell him to put it through the NCT as it's a hard sell with that amount remaining.
Also check has it had a timing chain done that was number one question I was askedLast edited by Guest; 20-10-17, 10:11.

Sorted my Groomsmen out in there. Great quality and good value.
I bought much more expensive elsewhere and regretted it. Thing got fucking destroyed.

Nothing like a George monbiot article to send you to the abyss when going quietly about your day
The shocking collapse of insect populations hints at a global ecological meltdown, writes Guardian columnist George Monbiot
Must say it rings true with me,remember being out on good days during the summer and noticing the lack of bees etc flying around compared to when I was a kid

Was at a rather plush IT jolly in london this week, in County Hall looking over at parliament. Got taken to https://www.thened.com/for lunch, then out on the lash after. Seems that GDPR and IT training in general are licences for snake oil salesmen in suits to charge astronomical daily rates. Signed up for my seat on the gravy train v quickly indeed.Low fee Euro/UK money transfer, 1st transfer free through my referral
