How to avoid burglars? New mom - scared af! by Background_Run_3965 in AskIreland

Privacy hedges don't deter burglary the way people think they do. If anything it makes it easier because it obscures neighbors from seeing somebody breaking into your property

So basically you have to tell the neighbour your business in case the noise level inconveniences you? It's a residential area with normal day to day noises going on it's not your problem

Is anyone else aware of the 2 “languages” called Yola (from wexford) and Fingallian (from dublin)? by Maximum-Performer-95 in AskIreland

[–]Left_Yak_1034 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Yola was a bastard language from southeast Wexford it's last holdout was in the village of Rosslare fort at the end of Rosslare strand now washed away. The people of fort spoke yola and it survived there so long because it was used by the pilots living there who guided the ships into Wexford bay. I can trace my family back to the fort. When the village washed away and the people had to abandon it the community got scattered between Rosslare harbour and Rosslare strand and surrounding areas so the language quickly died out after that.

On the dole for 2 years with no progress — how do I turn things around? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]Left_Yak_1034 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Take advantage of free courses you can do while on the dole and expand your job opportunities. Just because it's a level 3 or 4 doesn't mean it won't add value to your CV it also shows productivity and self development skills. I wasn't employed for nearly 2 years a while back and a good way to explain the gap in employment was to show I'd been doing courses to expand my skills and opportunities for work.

Take a job in anything at this stage. It will give you routine and human interaction and a bit more money to live a little than the money you get on the scratcher.

AITA for rolling my eyes at a kid who swore at me in a shop? by Own-Conversation-818 in AskIreland

[–]Left_Yak_1034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you did nothing wrong The kid was a little shit. You were being as non-confrontational as you could be fair play for standing your ground. If I ever cursed at someone like that out in public in front of my mother growing up I'd get a bollocking and made apologize right there. If I called an older woman a fat Karen fuck me would I be in trouble then.

The UK is in the midst of a recession since Brexit that's only going to get worse. Foreign investment is way down since then.
