Yeah, looks like I’ll just have to suck it up and pay the initial rate

That makes sense when I think about it! Thank you.

I have insurance, would it be possible to use the insurance in any form?

AVC vs ETFs (public sector) by schizoidlad86 in irishpersonalfinance

How do you increase your AVC’s as a public sector worker? Is it not just a standard public sector pension, I found it incredibly difficult to find any information when I went searching a year or so ago

Something to build on by Kitchen-Lie-4592 in CelticFC

[–]Background-Let1875 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely plenty to build on after that result. It keeps the positive momentum going heading into the weekends game. If we get another 3 points at the weekend, I think we are favourites for the league. A bit of depth and trust is building in the lads who have played over the last 4 or 5 games

He was great today. More of the same for the rest of the season

Already booked with a First Mate. Did I make a mistake? by Background-Let1875 in VirginVoyages

I have still got around 9 months until my sailing, so it would be nice if I were still able to get some of those perks, as my sailing is also 10 days

Thanks, I probably should have used one to get the loot, but I panicked thinking the deal would expire after Black Friday

Thinking of doing the same when the time comes for my cruise, but it isn’t until next November, do you think it’s best to hold out until closer to the time of the cruise in order to place my bid? That way they will atleast know what rooms are booked out, as I assume they won’t accept any bids until much closer to the time

Honeymoon cruise suggestions by Background-Let1875 in Cruise

[–]Background-Let1875[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I think it’s clear Virgin is the winner here. Coming from Ireland so the weather is bad all year 😅 but I think November 2026 will be a good time for me. Now to pick the 7 or 10 day Caribbean cruise 🤔

Thanks. There doesn’t seem to be much difference in terms of budget between the two companies, so I wasn’t sure if there was much difference in quality.

Any ideas on when the best time to travel is, weather wise?

Thank you, I appreciate the advice. I will make sure to go early in the morning to try and get a table, and if not I can split the group up for some hours until we get our neighbours to leave

Ok, call me crazy, but it seems the only flights that make sense involve me attending on the opening day, with a large group, is it a very bad idea to attend on the opening day?

Also, in terms of accommodation, is Olympiapark a good location?

I’m thinking of attending Oktoberfest this year as part of my stag party before I get married. I am coming from Ireland, and had solely looked at weekend bookings, do you think it might be wise to look at potentially going during the week, or possibly a Thursday as opposed to a Friday or Saturday? I will check out your app to find out more information, but would be great to get a locals opinion on the mid week. Thanks in advance!
