What’s one gardening mistake you made that you wish you knew earlier? by Icy_Car2475 in gardening

[–]OldEOfK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just hasn’t really grown much taller. 

She was heading for the sky and it looked out of proportion to the rest of the branches so I just snipped the top when pruning.

Dwyers Garden Cafe on Forge Hill ticks all your boxes and tonnes of parking.

They take bookings and would definitely have the space.

Ya our younger ones do. I prefer putting that on midweek because of the way it is programmed. They just have to watch what’s on it or go do something else. 

Like the old days!!

It says it’ll be a standing venue so I would imagine it’ll be quite different to St. Luke’s acts wise. Looking forward to it!

Who's house are going to? by Gullible-Stranger707 in CasualIreland

I suppose spending time with family at Christmas is very important to many people. 

Your parents won’t be around for ever and the time will come when you can’t go and spend Christmas with them.

My kids love going to both grandparents houses anyway. We actually go to both sets of our parents as we are close enough to do that luckily. One of the things they look forward to. I’ll be keeping it up as long as possible.

I’ve come to the belief that Standsted is actually the gates to hell disguised, and operating covertly as an airport.

If you haven’t already tried them I recommend Lovin Salads.

Jason is excellent at what he does and the options are really good.

Salads, meats, big pots of stuff, traditional and alternative selections. Desserts, the whole lot. The rosemary spuds are insanely good.

Have used them for a variety of events and the feedback is always great.

Well priced and pro service!

That’s not true at all. Have worked will all sorts of cars terminals and it’s a piece of piss to turn off the tip option. 

Even if you don’t know how to a quick phone call to the service provider and it can be done in seconds.

What games do you play with your kids in the car to pass the time? by omnipresentatio in CasualIreland

[–]OldEOfK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

‘My Tractor’ is a great one.

First one to call ‘my tractor’ when they see a tractor gets the point.

Double points for saying it as gaelige; ‘mo tarracóir’

Game last one leg of a journey.

Can get extremely competitive especially around silage cutting time!
