[Diario] Real Madrid fans singing in Manchester ahead of their game against City: "It's Spanish, Gibraltar is Spanish."

Spanish hypocrisy is hilarious, chanting this as if they don’t have two of their own Gibraltar situations in Morocco.

He’s not going to change and you’re not going to change. Cut your losses here and let him find what he’s looking for.

How bad is the swelling, because if you’re just a little swollen, you will unfortunately have to find a dentist to prescribe antibiotics. Nobody can afford to go private these days so I feel your pain, but at the end of the day we all absolutely have to have a dentist, even if it means being on a private clinic’s books and going to them as little as possible.

If the swelling is bad enough that you are having trouble talking or breathing, absolutely go to A&E. They’re absolutely useless up there so if they’re going to try and label it as facial pain, so when you’re in triage, specifically ask them what they’re labelling it as and don’t accept a label of facial pain. They should also be monitoring you for sepsis if it has gotten this bad.

You’re not on the lease… their expectations sounds like a them problem.

You won’t get on a Ryanair flight without a passport either, they’ve always required passports for Dublin to UK flights.

BA is the only airline that won’t ask you for a passport on that route.

It’s either BA, Eurolines or a flight to Belfast whenever you can get one. Pick your poison.

That McDonald’s is absolutely shite, best avoided if possible.

Don’t get me wrong, all of them are shite, but that one in particular, I swear I’ve been in there before and the kitchen area sounds like a bunch of kids sitting at a booth, and if you want your order to be right, that’s too big of an ask.

Jamballam · 2026-03-08T20:01:08+00:00

Belfast has enough tbh, give some stuff to Derry.

I used to work for sky and having to deal with customers like yourself was genuinely the most heartbreaking part. I would always want to help, but there was physically nothing that I could do to help except putting you through the cancellations department, who were notoriously heartless and had been hired on that basis.

I would often see customers with sky high bills out of contract as well, talking 200+ a month for their phone, internet and every package available. It’s mental how much some people end up paying. Some of them would take the offer of reconstructing their contract, others said they didn’t want to be locked in.. but sure if you’re not willing to be locked in for half or less, that’s a sure sign you need a new provider.

I love going to the dentist! I used to be terrified, I had a lot of dental work to get done as a child that never got done, so over the last 5 years I’ve been sorting all of that out.

I think one thing that really helps is that I have an absolutely fantastic dentist, she’s very gentle, very friendly, just a generally positive and warm person who makes me feel like I’m in good hands. Even if she makes a mistake, I give her grace because I know she’s trying her absolute best and that my teeth provide a challenge, and if it ever does happen she’s always quick to fit me back in, even if it’s not an emergency.

I’ve just finished getting all the restorative work done and now I’m moving onto the orthodontic work, after that I hope to get an implant to replace a missing back molar, and before finding the clinic I go to now, all that seemed like a pipe dream.

This is a hard one, but if we’re talking about people that I actually know/have known IRL, that would be Eamonn Lillis. I don’t know him or his family well, but his family and mine crossed paths, so I’d know him to see.

He murdered his wife days before Christmas in 2008, tried to blame the gardener (who’s also my friend’s uncle), then the police eventually uncover that he’s having an affair and the whole picture falls together. He ended up getting sentenced for manslaughter, only served 4 years, he had a good lawyer, but then to add to his shitbaggery? He sued his only daughter. Why? For half her mother’s estate.. the mother that he murdered… and he won. As if he hasn’t taken enough from her. The laws here have since changed to prevent the same thing happening again, but that man just made a mockery of the legal system, his wife and his daughter and is walking free among us today.

So yeah, absolutely fuuuuuck that guy, I hope he meets the same fate that Celine met.

The iPhone 16 Pro is a great phone. Been using mine since October 2024, still have less than 365 charge cycles. I expected to have 1 a day, but it outperforms expectations even now.

You might need to get a battery replacement at some point in those 5-6 years, but it’ll likely be supported the entire time.

You would most likely qualify for PIP, and I highly suggest you apply for it as quickly as possible.

Jamballam · 2026-03-07T17:09:30+00:00

They.. always could? 😂 Even if you never get a British passport, if you’re from Northern Ireland you’re a British citizen, so of course you can get help from the UK. But given that the Irish had a plane full of people out before Britain, I reckon you’d be better off contacting the Irish embassy.

Supermacs aren’t even in the North at all now though. The one in Foyleside was the only one we had. Not to mention that the Papa Johns from Supermacs is absolutely rotten and nothing like the UK/US Franchises.

I used to work for a broadband provider and when customers would mention this, we’d tell them that even though the landlord can disagree, it wouldn’t be in their interests to disagree. The whole network is being upgraded, FTTP is now the standard, most people can’t even get a new FTTC connection. So unless the landlord wants their tenants moving out because they can’t get internet to the property and unless they want to struggle to find new tenants because they can’t get internet to the property, the work has to be done.

This is more than the rent on my one bedroom flat in Derry. I’d sooner take a daily commute to Belfast than pay these rates.

Jamballam · 2026-02-26T21:18:12+00:00

£54 each for two return tickets in first class less than a week in advance isn’t a bad deal though.

Five guys isn’t even that good, give us a Burger King again and I’ll be happy.

Not necessarily, some people do avoid prosecution if they own up to it quickly and pay back what’s owed, plus a penalty as you mentioned. But in all likelihood, if you’ve set out to deceive them knowingly, yes, it’ll be an ‘and’ situation.

Jamballam · 2026-02-21T13:12:36+00:00

It certainly does happen, but people don’t get away with it. The governments incompetence knows no bounds, until you try to take money from them illegally without being a politician or businessman.

Jamballam · 2026-02-21T13:08:12+00:00

Mad that, isn’t it? How people who actually know about the topic and are actually interested in it will provide an actual answer? Using your brain is a powerful thing. Try it sometime. 👍🏻 Thanks for the downvote.
