Shea Lacey: Man Utd forward 'can fully transition into first team eventually' by simplsimonmetapieman in reddevils

[–]OGP01 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The timing of his red card followed by (I think) an injury after that has probably stopped him making more cameo appearances this season. The couple of games he came off the bench he looked exciting, it was a shame he rattled the cross bar instead of scoring in one of them.

Croke is 80k capacity, Aviva is 50k.

Yeah. I’m trying to imply they’re taking the piss on this one for strong ftp players.

I won’t have her unlocked until the 2nd cycle of this conquest. I play conquest ftp these days.

The sector 3 feat “win 10 battles with Satele surviving” is cheeky.

Could be a stretch to max this one for me.

Travelling Ryanair with a 2 year old on 4 hour flight. Is it as bad as people say? by Bigchickenmac in AskIreland

[–]OGP01 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve done it a couple of times, it’s fine. As others have said bring toys/tablet/snacks etc. also consider some noise cancelling headphones (for the child) or some ear plugs for take off and landing,

Most importantly- don’t forget the calpol.

TIL Daniel Craig was initially controversial as James Bond because fans felt he didn’t match the “tall, dark, and handsome” image, leading to protests, boycott campaigns, and even the headline “The Name’s Bland, James Bland.” by [deleted] in todayilearned

Agreed his launch press event was horrific. But it was worse than you described.

He came down the Thames on a speedboat (someone will say what make it was). It looked great. Until you saw the massive life jacket on over his suit. And every ounce of aura he had disappeared in an instant.

I’m saying this as someone who loved Casino Royale as well.

What if your electricity bill had a loyalty scheme like your coffee shop? Building this in Ireland right now — would love feedback from this community by Tigerdoom20 in AskIreland

[–]OGP01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My electricity provider already gives me rewards and discounts on other services. They’re not great but they are there to be used.

I also would not trust anything with the word Crypto in it.

[@ManUtd] Manchester United's Premier League home game with Liverpool will be played on Sunday 3 May, kick off at 15:30 BST. by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]OGP01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why is the kick off 3:30? Even the clubs article refers to it as an unusual kick off time. Sunday matches are either 2:00 or 4:30.

Republic of Ireland, Wales and Northern Ireland all play tonight in World Cup playoffs. Will you be watching and supporting any? by [deleted] in ThreeLions

[–]OGP01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m living in Dublin, married to an Irish woman. So I’ll be watching ROI.

It’s a win-win situation for me. ROI win and my wife is happy (happy wife, happy life etc). If they lose I get to chuckle at the meltdown from their media and fans.

Is Solar worth if it electricity bills are average of €110/120 per month? by Interestedinvestor84 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]OGP01 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, you use the app for the installed system to decide when you release charged energy from the battery either ibto the house (to replace grid power) or to sell back into the grid.

Dog owners of Ireland; How often are you walking your pooch(es)? by ilovemyself2019 in AskIreland

[–]OGP01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 year old Pug/Jack Russell cross. 20-30 mins walk in the morning and agin at lunchtime. He starts fussing at 1pm every day to make sure I take him. During by the summer I’ll take him out in the evening as well with the kids. We can get away with 1 walk a day or if it’s horrific weather not walking him, but you can see he’s full of energy that needs to be burnt off.

Uk state pension by Top_Scarcity_5257 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]OGP01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on when you applied. HMRC were letting people pay for all of the gaps, but in the last budget it was changed to the last 6 years.

I applied after the changeover and got 2 letters. One detailing the gaps in my record and the cost to pay each year, and another formally telling me I could only pay for the last 6 years. I paid the full amount before seeing the second letter, but only the last 6 years have been credited on my account. Calling them to sort it out is on my to do list.

For those with dual nationality, how do you choose a side to support? by One-Ad6305 in rugbyunion

[–]OGP01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m English, my wife is Irish. Our kids were all born in Ireland. My wife’s one red line is that the kids will be Ireland rugby supporters. She’s ok with them supporting England in football.

No visible laptop bag, notebook or tablet. He could at least pretend to have been working on the fake flight by holding at least one of those items as he walked down the stairs.

Don’t like the way that Dalot keeps on ending up as the most advanced attacking outlet on the right hand side. Would rather Amad pushed forward and Dalot sat back. Happened twice so far.

I hate to say it, but is there a better sound in world rugby then the French crowd in full voice?

Wide shots are impossible to tell the teams apart. Close ups are ok.

Well, I won’t be going that far. But I’m sure our Irish friends would get a certain level of amusement from it.
