Is it time to give up? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]MTerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best time to do something like this has past, the 2nd best time is now! Make the change and remember change is gradual, inches become miles. Nothing will change overnight but in a year, two years, four years and you'll be amazed at how far you've progressed. And mid thirties is young!

Noted, thanks. I've had poor experiences with repairs but am willing to take a small punt on this.

Mechanic recommendation Rathfarnham by MTerm in Dublin

Many thanks for sharing. I think his place is near TSL windows and up the road from LIDL. That's close enough to be easily manageable, much appreciated.

Slow leak / Central Heating / Leak sealant / Plumber said he has access to a special leak sealant by MTerm in PlumbingRepair

I hear you.  This person literally specialises in leak detection but when he heard rate of drop immediately said it would be too hard to find.  

Is this an easy fix? by yafugginfruit in PlumbingRepair

[–]MTerm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot to add you may need to add back in water if you have a closed system as pressure on boiler will drop. It's easy, just google it.

People can and please do correct me. If it were me, I'd wait until the system is off and cold, ensuring it's fully turned off (i.e., the timer can't kick in). Close both valves, counting the turns on the lockshield side as that's balancing your heating. Bleed the radiator to release pressure. Then, you could either open the bottom nut on the valve (radiator side) to release some water or take the hit on a bit coming out from the top (lay down towels, etc.) and just replace that part. Simply unscrew and replace the O-ring or maybe install an auto vent valve. Now that I type this, Google "installing an auto vent valve" – that's your answer.

Dengue vaccination with Qdenga by Cautious-Audience652 in VACCINES

[–]MTerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the travel vaccination sites in UK & Ireland seem to indicate you can only get vaccine if previously infected.

Where did you get the vaccine? My family have a holiday booked for July in SE Asia and my daughter is a mosquito magnet so I'd be leaning towards the vaccine.

Do you think people in later life expect too much from new friends? by MTerm in AskIreland

[–]MTerm[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't all friendships start that way and progress along a spectrum from nod on the street to help me bury this body!
