    I thought it was generally accepted Kerrygold is the best in the land? Never have i thought of the need for an artisan butter! Im sure if you go to Fresh or Donnybrook fair or the likes theyll wrap the Kerrygold in a diff wrapper and charge you a few quid extra if it makes ya feel better haha!

          I didn't just say goodbye to the playlists, I learnt python last year and was working on a custom media player built around google play


          Spotify has likes which work the same as thumbs up.

            Not to concerned about the content but that screen reading audio widget is really good. Pronunciations are very accurate.

              When i was living there, the big dunnes store in cabinteely sold President butter which is head and shoulders above kerrygold. It's been a while but the proximity of the French school seemed to push them to sell lots of French products not usually available elsewhere, so doubtful that's changed too much, and you might find some things you'd want.

              Just back from France, and spent the last week in St malo, which is such a great place. Brought back kilos of sarasin flour, and kilos of bordier butter (probably one of the best baratte butters in the world) which is ridic good

                  On the topic of whiskey - I have bought 2 x Irish Whiskey lately that are trying to break into the aged/premium. 17yo O'Connell and 18yo Teeling. Both fall well below expectations. Seems buying aged casks and finishing them for 6 months in madeira casks is the approach du jour. It isn't working and the whiskey is being totally overpowered.
                  Didn't even look at the SA wines. Those prices look to be ~25% cheaper than buying local.

You start by introducing cultures to the milk similar to cheese and yogurt before making the butter, adds a ridic depth of flavour that's not like any ordinary butter. I don't know what the Kerrygold process is, but it tastes like paper compared to proper butter.
                        You have me intrigued! Im assuming this is just for bread uses?

                        Reminds me of the seaweed butter they serve/served in asador. Man that was good

                          I don't disagree but the EU rightly resisted the new Polish government's attempt to recall their Commissioner, they won't be able to do that next time if we are able to force Hogan out.

                          There has to be some level at which question how much are we willing to pay to have the high moral ground. Gove and Johnson must be laughing their holes off at the prospect of seeing someone else across the table next week.

                                      Finding myself goosed by the property market. Moving in with my gf, we found a place we really liked so agreed to take it. I'm meant to give 3months notice on my place since I've been here so long. But it was hoped the landlord would get someone new in sooner and that would be the end of my liabilities. New place was looking for 3 months up front , agreed to two. Multiple months rent + deposit out the door. My place hasn't moved in the last few weeks. Getting funked by the tech market moving home.

                                      Anyone looking for a place in D2?

                                            Isnt the Kerrygold brand just a marketing ploy ? Mass produced factory butter from all over the country, must seek out more artisan styles.

                                              I've a Teeling 17 yeat old, here, finished in Australian Red wine cask (Armagh Shiraz). The spicy red does a much better job that sweet maderia imo.
                                              The best stuff in Ireland is still coming out of Sherry casks though.

                                              One thing that at first glance I thought was weird; I ordered 18 bottles and indeed, 18 bottles I received. However they all arrived in one big box which was awkward to lug onto the kitchen table. Once I opened it though, I found that the wine was actually packed in these kind of yokes:
                                              images?q=tbn%3AANd9GcT3cZFbEgG2FvZf9jqjWSYtJqDfrZszk0GnVQ&amp;usqp=CAU.jpg

                                              which might actually be really handy for future storage requirements (although bulky). Seems on balance though to be really terrible for the environment to be sending things unnecessarily packaged like this? Why not just send the wine in the usual wine boxes?
                                              I've a couple of them. Singles and doubles. Really handy for travelling with wine/whiskey if your luggage doesn't offer much protection.

                                                It's considered artisan in the States. Which probably says it all really

                                                  Hitch how do you get the time/energy to post so much?

                                                  I just made maybe 6 phone calls and sent off 3 contracts by email so far and needed to take a lie down with the stress of it all!!


                                                  Actually could ask RD the same Q but think HH is more in the prolific category.

                                                        So then why was one government website saying if you have a close contact with someone with the virus and test negative then you can go on your way. (if you haven't been abroad apartmently. A footnote not actually included on the web page).

                                                        Says here under 'test results'. : https://www.citizensinformation.ie/e...r_covid19.html
                                                        But it doesn't actually say that in one sentence as you've wrote it.

                                                        That page is mainly about people who have developed systems, or think that have COVID. GP sends them for testing. They isolate while waiting results, in case they have it.
                                                        If it comes back negative, they are good to go. As if they were incubating, they wouldn't have symptoms.

                                                        The only time it mentions close contact is when it defers to contact tracing. Presumably the people on the contact tracing team know their processes and give people clear instructions. In that case they probably have to isolate for variable times depending on what they were in contact with the diseased person. I can see why somebody might infer the above, however...

                                                        People arriving on a plane have nothing to do with the above. They have to isolate for two weeks. That's pretty straight forward. Hogan hasn't a leg to stand on.

                                                          With my GP I just asked for a test, they gave me one, no questions asked. I didn't mentioned anything but I wanted a test.
                                                          This will vary from person to person ofc.
                                                          That's interesting, it seems that GPs are varying right across the board.

                                                          We have two people out of work at the minute as a precaution both with different GPs.

                                                          1st person had headache and sort throat which is low on the HSE's list of symptoms, marked as 'Sometimes' - GP told him they weren't Covid symptoms, no test to be given but he was to isolate for 14 days. This makes no sense to me, I get the idea of isolating as a precaution but if that's the case, just do a bloody test. I now have to get this guy set up to work from home when part of his job requires him to be on site which means I have to re-jig stuff around. I went through it with HR and as the doctor instructed to isolate, we can't overrule that from a liability point of view.

                                                          2nd person said they had a bit of cold flushes/fever yesterday. GP advised the symptoms weren't strong enough to warrant a test and if they persisted or got worse, then to isolate. Otherwise, no need to do anything. So this now put us in a position where we, as his employer, have to make a judgement call on what we do with him based on if he says he's feeling better. As it tuned out, he didn't feel much better today so we gently pushed him to get onto the GP again and say symptoms still there, ahem...maybe worse and now he is getting a test today/tomorrow.

                                                          I hope (definitely funking) that neither of them have Covid as both symptoms are very mild at best but we can't take the risk of bringing them back into work and potentially infecting everybody in the place. We also need them on site as some of their job can't be done remotely. It puts us in a very tough spot of trying to make sure all staff are safe and still operate as a business. I doubt we're alone in this regard.

                                                              It's definitely a lot more difficult when some of the job demands physicality and instructions are so unclear across the board, leaving workplaces like yours in a very tough spot. It's easy for people to tell me to isolate, I can work from anywhere.

                                                              GPs ranging from me going: hey I want a test - ok, to somebody else in my class being told they had no symptoms so they don't get tested, even as a close contact (which is also wrong). The close contact teams clearly not doing a good job, none of us contacted at all. They didn't even contact my friend who was living with somebody that tested positive.

                                                              Another annoying thing would be telling people false negatives and infecting your work too.
                                                              It's a tough situation if everybody with the most common symptoms for anything (I mean I get a cough randomly sometimes, or a sore head, or any of the symptoms) means staying at home for 14 days, and I guess on the opposite side the centres would be overrun if they took everybody they should. Before this kicked off I met my brother for dinner, now he is isolating in my family home as my father is due a hip operation and just had a pacemaker put in, if I wasn't given a test, that would probably be another 10 days he'd have to stay in a room as an unknown, and everybody he's been around since (a teacher, gard appearing in court each day) would also be waiting around, a big chain of uncertainty. Not to mention all the other people I have seen and that they have seen and so on.

                                                              Now even when I expect mine to come back negative, what does it really mean? I didn't have the virus at that point in time, or it wasn't in the sample collected, or the test went wrong. Since it is a 14 day incubation, I could easily not have been active then but am now and so on. Best guessing will have to do for everybody. Also people often have to take a bus or a taxi to the centre seeing as the closedt to me is out past the airport (croke park being closed due to lack of demand?) it's such a mess.

In Germany it will usually be the lactic and in France the unsalted here the salted etc.

So throughout his stay he remained within that House - luckily the bar and restaurant are also within the original house. At no time enter the 90s Smurfit addition - not even to use the pool. A simply misunderstanding.

                                                                        Mine was due to be delivered in August, at some point it slipped to late August. Then the website changed on 15th to give the impression that orders due in August had been shipped but I got no email so tried to contact them then just to see get an update, I'd been completely relaxed and happy to wait up till whenever until then.

                                                                        11 days later I'm tearing my hair out trying to just get any reply from them , absolute horrorshow of customer non service.

                                                                        Finally after taking to twitter this morning I got a reply that basically amounts to 'Hi you're awesome abut not as awesome as us. Poor us we are growing so fast we can't cope', some part was hard to get so there was a delay and maybe we are ready to ship now (or maybe not ???) Oh lets see well if your order is gone to the warehouse then maybe they will send it sometime next week but thats not the kind of detail you could possibly expect us to know or to want to share with you, Hey you're an awesome person for buying off us and maybe if you don't hear from us next week we will get back to you Oh and have we told you how awesome you are '

                                                                        GTFO, so pissed off with them I not sure if I really want to go ahead anymore, I suppose I might as well give them another week but fuck them and their platitude laden bullshit.

                                                                        Turning millions into thousands

Then the website changed on 15th to give the impression that orders due in August had been shipped but I got no email so tried to contact them then just to see get an update, I'd been completely relaxed and happy to wait up till whenever until then.

                                                                                            11 days later I'm tearing my hair out trying to just get any reply from them , absolute horrorshow of customer non service.

                                                                                            Finally after taking to twitter this morning I got a reply that basically amounts to 'Hi you're awesome abut not as awesome as us. Poor us we are growing so fast we can't cope', some part was hard to get so there was a delay and maybe we are ready to ship now (or maybe not ???) Oh lets see well if your order is gone to the warehouse then maybe they will send it sometime next week but thats not the kind of detail you could possibly expect us to know or to want to share with you, Hey you're an awesome person for buying off us and maybe if you don't hear from us next week we will get back to you Oh and have we told you how awesome you are '

                                                                                            GTFO, so pissed off with them I not sure if I really want to go ahead anymore, I suppose I might as well give them another week but fuck them and their platitude laden bullshit.
