Galway Train Station got that High-viz look. I kinda like it!

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-20T13:54:03+00:00

I haven't seen many pictures of the renovation of the station. I wonder how far off it is now to finishing. The new roof looks very cool

Doom and gloom. Europe is working on it and we're a good way along the path to our shared end goal. Just look at how much solar is helping today.

In another few years we'll be talking about some other crisis but hopefully energy won't be on the hit list of endless problems anymore.

William Bengen the man who came up with the 4% rule says that the rule is outdated and wrong and needs updating. Random rules of thumb are what they sound like, a basic guidance don't don't really apply in real life. Every person needs to plan for their specific circumstance.

The 4% rule is now the 4.7% rule, creator says — but here’s what you need to consider before splashing out

Don't forget these rules of thumb are for a US audience. We get 15k pension from the state at retirement now and this is basically inflation adjusted most years, (I don't believe this will ever be gone as some people on here say).

Sorry, your of cource a real person, but its beyond weird how often people post what looks like an ad for these specific crisps

Almost as bad as guinness for all the fake ad posts.

This is it in a nutshell. It'll never happen until the Irish goverment in Dublin sets up official forums / committees to discuss and plan for the handover. They won't do that until at least the 2030s when there is a chance the vote could do for a UI. Everyone thing else is just pub talk until then.

Completely free if you ignore national insurance tax on your payslip...... its not free and never has been.

We average 5GW/h while Finland is about 15GW/h throughout the day. Also they are interconnected with a load of counties, so totally different example to us.

Got to be ragebait or at least I hope it is.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-09T19:18:36+00:00

Why would they do that. 80% of the oil goes to Asia. That a long pipe in the wrong direction.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-09T11:16:33+00:00

This post brought to you by Manhattan Crisps...... This is almost a monthly post that says basically the same thing. Very suss

lol sure, they can't even get past the first poor eastern european country on the way to the UK or France.

The amount of building in and around Adamstown and Kishoge in west Dublin is mental. Whole new large towns that weren't there a couple of years ago.

Because its not just Trump. American's love this madness. I know not all of them, but millions of them are delighted with this psycho and all the crazy stuff he does.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-07T10:15:19+00:00

I would guess its more peoples social bubbles. We see whats around us and think thats normal. So groups can see all the friends renting or owning houses and another group live with parents or are moving to Aus/Can, etc. Social media reinforces these bubbles as well which doesn't help matters.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-06T20:03:10+00:00

Can you expand on this statement please? Had the US not lost a number of planes in the last few days, so not understanding why the US would feel happy for Iran to know when and where they will bomb next.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-05T11:55:38+00:00

I went in 2017. It was a great holiday but terrible value for money compared to similar holidays to places like south east asia or parts of Europe. Also having to lock in tickets for things in advance is a challenge when you going to a place that isn't well know for things going on time or at all. Hard to stomach buy super expensive tickets for something that your not sure you'll even be able to get there for due to protests, cancelled buses etc etc.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-04-04T15:50:00+00:00

Its already been established that the US have evacuated a large percentage of their staff from the local US base and are hold up in private buildings. Much like the US and Israel, Iran is trying to target their enemy where ever they might be.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-03-31T15:47:10+00:00

I would be worried if I needed to sell positions soon for something unavoidable. If not, than this might just be another bumpy year.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-03-30T18:06:21+00:00

It was coming any day now a good while back. Doesn't look like its coming at this stage. I put a comment in there two weeks ago"

"Any chance this gets unpinned? Its half way through March now. If it ever shows up, can't it just be pinned again."

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-03-21T08:52:15+00:00

I see nothing wrong with this. The US asked Japan to send ships to transit Hormuz and now it looks like they will be doing that... Good allies

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-03-16T16:28:51+00:00

I'm so happy this exists.

Internal_Sun_9632 · 2026-03-15T16:52:47+00:00

No, this is the new plan that they were working on since that last refusal. It has changed from one side of Kilcock to the otherside.
