Might just track down whatever TV that looks like a good advance on the current 42inch and is in or around €1k and hope whatever tech has caught up with our demands in a few years.
Come the World Cup, the thing will be mounted on the balcony with the lads round for beers watching evening games no doubt.
Originally posted by aidankk View PostThere is no need for 4k in a projector at all for any screen under about 150". The differance in picture is just about noticeable but i promise you if you watch films a projector in a room that can go reasonably dark it is a different experaince than any TV.
All that said if you can afford a big oled they are the total dogs boll*x for more or less every kind of viewing.
I think you need to see a projector in action in a darkened room to be sure.
I agree it is a totally different experience. I love it. I got it mainly for sports for Tony but have found we have used for movie watching. We used to have a large TV in our bedroom in Ireland. The new place in Malta means we couldn't do that, plus we got rid of 2 TV's when we moved. We now hang the screen from the wardrobe directly opposite the bed and watch away at it. It is class

Whether it says more about me than I care to admit i Dont know but when I heard an asylum seeker from the middle East indescriminately stabbed and murderer one man, then stabbed another then attacked another with a fence post (this was the last attack btw) I immediately thought terrorist attack.
Similar to when I heard about the car ploughing into people on London bridge and in Barcelona.
Sure they were only driving a car ffs.
And I agree with some of what sickpuppy is saying about security. You can be sure he wouldn't have got into France or Germany and if he did he would have been observed until his application was processed.

The next stage, if memory serves, is to mentally decide that they are all incapable of rational thought, but you'll pretend to play along with their crazy ways all the while knowing in your own mind that they are a highly dodgy lot who symbolise everything that is wrong groupthink.
Karl Pilkington would get my very clear but also well disguised point
Btw Now the wimmin are getting man flu too ffs.
Anyway thanks for listening I feel lighter.

We are planning to get rid of one toilet but 4 toilets/bathrooms for 6 bedrooms and an office is about right. Ignoring the fact that there are only 3 of us living here!!
I often look at my garage and think “the apt we lived in before was no bigger than this”.
The really gas thing is our house is only a little over the average size for houses around here. It’s all one 500sqm mansion after another from what I can see. 350sqm is basically entry level stuff!‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Originally posted by Sickpuppy View PostI think the fact he had no right to be here and had met the police but was allowed on his merry way is the most galling thing. What’s the point of a border immigration control etc? Being told sure make your way to Dublin to the immigration office is not good enough. I was in Lanzarote for 12 days over Christmas and only saw two beggars and very few black Africans even though it’s just across the water was a nice change from Dublin can’t go for a piss without some cunt asking for change or a cigarette.

But in Dundalk.
And against a Japanese chap.
and used a fence post.
I made the same assumption as Keane
Barcelona and London were different both in scale and intelligence from the outset.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.

If this type of information isnt available extensive psychological tests should be performed as part of the asylum application given the sudden uptick in “mentally disturbed” carrying out mass attacks. Australia uses this model.
Which islands off the Irish coast should tent camps be erected so we can keep them there indefinitely?

Originally posted by Sickpuppy View PostFuck then seeing as it’s proved the majority are chancers. Papua New Guinea is a tropical paradise. Any of the Aran islands few jobs for the locals. Australia’s policy has one good effect the messsage got through don’t bother trying guess what it worked .
A tropical paradise in looks only, so unless you have money and are not stuck in an overcrowded tent camp you're not enjoying it. Extremely high rates of rape on women of all ages too, homosexuality outlawed, sounds like paradise alright.

Originally posted by cardshark202 View PostYou do know that most "migrant refugee chancers" are not migrating by choice. Many are fleeing awful conditions in their home country and often have nowhere to go. They try to make a life for themselves somewhere else and then you have people wanting to chuck them in concentration camps for having the gall for wanting to try start a new life and try make a living for themselves and support their families. All because a tiny minority of them might commit a crime.

God I'm looking forward to getting home tomorrow, Austria is a beautiful place. Skiing is not for me after getting 5 bad falls from very top of blue slope.
Little tip for anyone going, don't buy a 6 day ski pass, I was lucky enough to get a refund of 500 quid ish as they wernt activated and swopped for a points pass ie pay as you go for alot less, like 60 quid for 150 points, each lift uses 5 /10 points.
Was an experience, but deffo would prefer a sun holiday. Mia had a great time and that was important. But also kinda wasn't mad on the skiing. Didn't help the rest that came with us were flying down black slopes on day 3 Inc the kids.
But hey another country marked off. An expensive hol but you gotta sample things in life
I feel I need a sun holiday next week I'm. That wrecked 🤣🤣Her sky-ness
