            Managed to get them to remove the cap, but the offer currently still stands at a derisory 3 weeks per year.

            As for my own situation, amazingly despite the announcement being made 4 ago tomorrow I still havent gotten job descriptions or salary details for the 2 roles I may be able to apply for

                    Especially considering the company is coining it at the moment. Other companies in similar situations recently have been offering 8 weeks per year.

                    And the fukkers had the cheek to cap at €600 per week initally.

                    When the whole thing is over I may do a trip report on it all, the process has been handled so terribly, and the HR chimps making error after error. Their ineptness knows no bounds

                        Flannery has appealed his ban, resulting in a cross appeal which in all likelihood will see his ban lengthened.

                        What an idiot





                        Apparently IRFU appealing it, have they no sense? He was lucky to get as small a ban as he did

                              Does this Israel assassination thing remind anyone else of the West Wing storyline that was somewhat similar to this?

                              I bet Bartlett would have had this wrapped up in no time though.

                                              Yeah we murdered him when he won his bumper. He was very promising alright.They were offered 150k after he won the bumper but they refused all offers.
                                              Hindsight would be great but theres 10 of them in the syndicate. They are only getting a clear run with him now.


                                              Yeah most of the guys are from the gorey area.They have one more promising lad who who a P2P a forthnight ago in punchestown.

                                              Dam he folded up badly there.Sorry guys the loots were well and truly done.

                                                                        Not sure if this has been answered yet, but the 'Rent a Room Relief' has an exemption below 10k. This is only applicable to this scheme though. There are some conditions to this too, it has to be in a "Qualifying Residence" (Basically your home for the tax year). Also bear in mind that if the rental income from this goes above €10k, you will be assessable for tax on the whole amount, not just the excess.

                                                                        It doesn't apply when letting out a property, this will be taxed as Case V income. But you can deduct expenses on the property against the rental income.

                                                                        Link (includes allowable expenses): http://www.revenue.ie/en/tax/it/rental-income.html

                                                                            Its just like the page stops loading and it appears white. Have only noticed it on this thread too FWIW. PM me if necessary...

                                                                            Comment

This is only applicable to this scheme though. There are some conditions to this too, it has to be in a "Qualifying Residence" (Basically your home for the tax year). Also bear in mind that if the rental income from this goes above €10k, you will be assessable for tax on the whole amount, not just the excess.

                                                                              It doesn't apply when letting out a property, this will be taxed as Case V income. But you can deduct expenses on the property against the rental income.

I was also wondering about the mozilla not being included with FF, but there you go.

                                                                                                              Yep. In my stats post there were images for the browsers, and the place I cut and paste from was that url that was coming up for you. Obviously the images were still linke to there and to be seen you needed to log in or something. Who knows. I wasn't getting the popup, presumably as I was logged into that page at the time.
                                                                                                              I havent read to the end but the explanation for this is the images are hosted on the members area of whomever you are hosting with (too lazy to do a half decent whois) It's a dangerous thing to show the door Dom never mind present the keyhole.

Can't even upload most pdf's to it. Their website talks some crazy foreign language about what this all means and the support guy is even more useless.

                                                                                                                    Now that makes no sense to me at all. Surely if i upload a new file called php.ini to this folder and with just this code, then i'll be overwriting the existing very large php.ini file with a text file with just two lines?


                                                                                                                    EDIT: actually sorted now! That was majorly headache inducing.

The cunts all have free bus passes too which means they basically live on public transport.

I have serious concerns about anybody that has this words in his vocab. I'd consider myself quite open minded when it comes to sex, but WTF?????

Hopefully I'll block them out again this time too.
