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

    Comment


      Well I don't yet have one yet, but wondering if it's worth a purchase. I didn't realise that masturbation would continue to be such a large part of life, mainly due to the increased imagination that's possible with masturbation vs the real alternatives.

          What percentage of women would actually know what a fleshlight is?

                    Weighed myself today sans clothing (must remember to this indoors next time) and was an Adonis like 14S & 4 and a bit LBs. Was definitely over 15 at one stage maybe 15 4

                    Was finished physio waiting for bus near the Mater on Fri and just said ..feck it may as well walk home (5 miles)
                    Saved myself 3.30, got some exercise and was only circa 40/ 45 mins longer timewise and hardly felt tired at all. Mountain walking really is a great fitness routine and top class feel good factor.
                    Probably an age thing but i cant get enough of 'new hikes '

                    Plenty lined up for upcoming Iceland trip.

                        Had a vague idea what it was, but googled anyway, then quickly Xd the fuck out of there.

                        My wife also added to the never heard of it group.

                        I said to her, it's like a dildo except for blokes.

                        'Wha? Do you stick it up your hole?'

                        'No, it's a fake fanny'

                          You can get an occulus quest linked one also. So when you are virtually fucking your hotties the fleshlight is linked to it and reacts. I feel its almost a solved problem - interesting masturbation.

                                It's usually the washing of them that I've heard people complaining about. Sticking it in the dishwasher isn't acceptable in most households apparently.

                                          Malta is very cool lots of stuff to do.

                                          Did have a fellow IPB member stop me once while out walking along the seafront which was a pleasant surprise, wasn't Flushdraw.

                                            I see the government is finally about to unveil the big retrofitting scheme. Not sure how far €25k gets you these days but better than a kick in the bollix.

                                            Although as ever in these weird times, it's the supply side that will be the problem. It'll take years to scale up to the level required.

                                                Heard that on the radio this morning going to the gym. Was interested in hearing about as I was wondering would it cover the cost of say getting solar panels on your house? We got our house insulated on the outside and get extra insulation in the attic & new windows/door and heating system a couple years back and it's definitely made a difference but in the kitchen where our extension is they put in an extractor fan but it's basically just a big fucking hole out the back of the house and it does be crazy cold because of it probably not ideal after getting all the other work done.

Pity the SF spokesman wasnt strong enough to pick the minister up on his apprentice number lies, think he said we have 10k+ ready to rock and help with construction. My understanding is there are currently around 3k, the 10k figure is an overall one the govt want to hit by 2025

                                                                                        Personally, i dont think its right for the govt to just let private companies build apartments, pay above the odds for them and then rent use that stock to say we are dealing with the housing crisis, thats my money at the end of the day and i want it spent more efficiently.

                                                                                        Cant understand why they cant have a 30 or 50 year plan wrt housing. Borrow the fuck out of it, build build build, metros, subways, new purpose build cities, its not as if it all has to be paid back.

                                                                                        We dont have money for that...yeah, no worries handing out money hand over fist to publicans, some even claimed they were better off, no wonder they werent as vocal as they usually were.

                                                                                        Same with the PUP...just apply online...oh you have an old PPs number and no longer live in the state ? Not a bother, we wont even check it.

                                                                                        Doing a great job ? Sure...you can see that in the polls.

                                                                                            Is it worth consulting with a financial planner as an ordinary Joe Soap? I'm likely to be in fairly decent shape in terms of retirement, even if I won't be able to retire much sooner than I'd like, but I suspect there are a few things I could be doing that would make things better, even within my current financial limits. If a consultation with a financial planner is a worthwhile thing, then what level engagement should be sufficient? I'm not looking for someone to 'manage my affairs' as sadly I'm not that well off, but I don't want to pay 200 quid an hour for multiple sessions either when there may be a better way to do it.

                                                                                            I'm sure there is a lot of 'it depends' in any answer, but no harm asking either. Anyone gone to someone like this recently who would feel comfortable recommending the person they talked to?
                                                                                            I've been busy the past few weeks so just catching up now Dom. The ordinary Joe Soap is poorly served by financial advisers. If you have a work based pension and life cover/income protection the Qualified Financial adviser (QFAs) or broker can't sell you much and earn commision. As the work based products are in general much better value.

                                                                                            The generally higher quality Certified Financial planners (CFPs) really only want to deal with folk either due to retire or with signficant net worth so the middle class future wealthy don't get a lot of love. In fact the CFPs are so busy these days that the good ones are often moving on clients who don't fit their specialist niche. And the ones who aren't are either poor at business development or at financial planning or both.

                                                                                            Fintech and roboadvice may solve some of this problem over time but it's not a very enticing market so the stuff I've seen to date is really only linked to flogging you product by a bank or investment manager which takes you back to the QFA/broker model but with less people.

                                                                                            You can get an independent financial plan and discuss it with a paraplanner and an independent financial adviser for about €1,500 and not have it linked to a specific product sale. I still think that's a loss leader price and the real price should be closer to 3k. If that's of interest to you drop me a pm and I'll give you some contacts to follow up with. Most people won't pay anything like that much for that service and those that do are in general very comfortable.

The combined wishes of this largely middle-class country is that it continues to be run by middle-class parties. They make up the majority of the population's expressed voting desires.

Not sure what the screens cost, but cant imagine its more than 1k.

                                                                                                                        2/3rds of salary less the state disability benefit plus pension contributions is pretty good for income protection. In general, the insurers cap it at around 75% of salary from memory as they want there to be some motivation to return to work. The benefit in work would generally increase if you've received a salary increase as inter renewal pay increase are normally covered so I'd suggest you could just confirm that with HR or the benefits consultant.

                                                                                                                        Critical illness is a different product and easier to get as it's more definitive. You have a named illness/issue or you don't. The payments are normally lump sums and aren't a great match for the risk so i prefer IP if you can get it but if you are self employed or have a very variable income then you may only be able to get critical illness cover.

                                                                                                                        In your case where you are considering topping up a work policy make sure that you'll get paid in the event that something were to happen. If you are over insured from the two insurance companies persepctive they may pay you upto a max amount and split the costs of the claim between them.

Anybody on here new to driving that can point me in the direction of resources to look up on for my test and anything else I need to do?

                                                                                                                          Any and all help greatly appreciated BBV.
