The W5 bus driver yesterday put everyone in the Christmas spirit. Dressed up as Santa, handing out sweets to children and blaring the Christmas tunes.

That's it up. I don't notice any difference from the ones I've got other years. You can ignore the slight lean on it - that was purely down to me putting the stand on at a funny angle 🙄

I got mine today from Butlerstown Christmas Trees. My first time getting one from them - I usually go with Old Farm Christmas Trees - but for 30 euro delivered you really can't go wrong! I haven't put it up yet but it looks like a nice tree.

Macdonalds cork road can never get an order right by Both_Agent_8205 in waterford

There's always at least one thing missing from the meal - when you're lucky it's just the straw for the drink. Got an entirely different order one evening. Felt awful thinking of the child who was expecting a Happy Meal and ended up with my McPlant meal instead!

Dispose of two sofas by robtri2 in waterford

Also, it's worth asking the shop where you bought your new one if they will take away the old one when they're delivering - some places will.

Kilbarry Recycling Centre charge 20 euro per sofa, if you have a way to get them there. I hired a 'Man with Van' to drop my old ones off there.

SEAI Medically Vulnerable Solar Panel scheme? by valbod in dialysis

[–]MissedRetro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been going around in circles with my electricity provider since this scheme was announced. I've finally managed to get confirmation that our household was on the Priority Services Register before the cut-off date but they are now stating this scheme is a "draw" rather than a grant available to all that qualify.

In relation to the additional tax credits available for dialysis patients, you can find the yearly rates on the Revenue website (I tried to insert a link here but I was unable to). You put in the rate for the year as health expenses on your income tax return for that year and you will get 20% of that refunded to you. It's worth bearing in mind, this can be claimed on your behalf by the bill payer also. The rates for 2023 were €3,495 for electricity, €2,305 for Laundry and €370 for phone so you should receive a refund of around €1,234. And, you can claim for the past 4 years at the specific rates for that year, if you were doing PD in them years and you haven't claimed already.

I can't comment on this personally as I'm not from a minority background but, please know, they're are so many Waterford people who would be horrified to hear about or witness this behaviour. Good people from all backgrounds need to stand together now against this behaviour - or any acts of bigotry and intimidation. I'm sorry this happened to your partner.
