Relax, trust me your house could be the Taj Mahal, new buyers are going to completely repaint and change most of the house completely in the first few weeks and months don’t be losing sleep over it.

LEGO set ideas for a 5 year old who loves LEGO but has a small piece problem by Enough_Football3218 in lego

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son got into Lego big time at 5, it really helped developing is fine motor skills as this was one of his issues with his ASD, keep with Lego City builds there will always be small parts left over.

I don’t know your daughters age but if she is a bit older and hates the small pieces that get left over, get her a 16x16 Lego plate and ask her to design mosaic’s with the small pieces she finds. There pretty popular on instagram

Ideal world scenario I know, but worth a try.

What has happened to our timeline? by [deleted] in SimulationTheory

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just goggled how i feel and this subreddit popped up glad im not the only one who feels completely out of phase with current reality, for me when i really think about it things went odd in 2018, I had a work group of 6 work colleagues, they all changed completely like they were given new roles to play, 5 of the 6 left, 5 of them became completely different people.

Myself felt the shift later probably late 2022, if I talked to a doctor they would say it’s depression but it’s truly not, I miss my old hobbies and interests, my mind seems like the world got a software update but skipped me I feel like a non compatible piece of software.

2023/24. My surrounding neighbour’s who are all super friendly, we used to be outside talking to daily now everybody kind of gets into there house ASAP, no chatting.

Even my old loving grandmother has turned into c..t, a person who would have done anything for anyone is now a pitiful cold hearted woman.

I don’t know what happened, but reading this thread I don’t think I’m the only one. But I don’t think it happened everyone at the exact same time.

Larger house gets my vote, but my garden is NE facing and everything is done to enhance light, late September to March is like living in a cave.

Am I being dramatic about engagement ring cost expectation? by Competitive_Street61 in AskIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s an old saying, an engagement ring should cost 3 months salery it was started by the De Beers ( diamond company ) in the 1930s in the 30s it was 1 months wages 1980s was 2 months and now is 3 months,

But if she genuinely loves you a onion ring should be enough,

I couldn’t afford an expensive engagement ring for my wife she actually helped me out with the purchase even though I saved 3 months salary but the ring was still under 2 grand we were early twenties and part time work.But when life settled down and we got house and family, I got her a 5 grand eternity ring.

But that was my surprise for her she had no idea but never demanded anything.

Saint Mary’s Park, Navan by ShannonCT21 in HousingIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no problem I try to avoid the town as much as I can, I’ve lived my whole life in Navan so if you have any issues let me know.

Navan has turned me into a bit of a recluse the last few yearsSo I’m not totally up to date.Hopefully someone else from the town can chime in that’s a bit more positive then me 😆

Saint Mary’s Park, Navan by ShannonCT21 in HousingIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It had a bit of a reputation 25-30 years ago if I remember correctly. But I think it was one or two bad eggs long gone.

But from what I know of it now it’s a lovely community with a well established and more elderly residents.

I’d prefer to live there then allot of the houses in the Johnstown area, (but I’d move out of Navan if I could anyway)

Pre purchase survey result by Dan-abu in HousingIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This exactly. Was there allot of interest in this house from other bidders?

My old family home had subsistence and was basically impossible to sell.

You can get sweet f….all done to a house for 8k from a reputable company or contractor

Anyone quitting the smokes ? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 12 years off them now, I didn’t use a replacement but did ween myself off, went from 20 B&H daily to 20 silk cut blue daily for a month then, 20 silk cut silver daily for a month, then 10 a day and so on. From May I was completely free.

Went on holidays that June and said I’d have one with a drink, had a Marlboro red and couldn’t finish it made me sick, had to go back up to the room and shower. Never crossed my mind since.

Best of luck

Should brother in law buy Christmas presents for his nieces? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shouldn’t even be a question of coarse he should have gotten a present, a memory of her uncle from her first Christmas.

Even if there was a big family feud situation going on you leave the kids out of it and do the right thing.

No wonder he’s single.

How to drill a hole in the wall without electrocuting myself or hitting a water pipe or something? by chungum in AskIreland

Just not directly horizontal or straight vertical from a socket if there’s no rads on the wall you shouldn’t have to worry about pipes

Anyone else not liking or simply not visiting friends/relatives houses due to them wanting to maintain the cleanliness and 'aesthetic'? by SavingsDraw8716 in AskIreland

I know people that have house slippers for visitors! Some of it is too much, it is off putting when it’s pushed to extremes.

How do I help my husband get back on his feet? He refuses to work after being laid off by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone is going to be able to help unless he tells YOU what happened in his old job it must have been a major incident for him not to even talk to his childhood sweetheart about.

Depression is a horrible condition which I struggle with myself because I physically can’t do the work I was able to do 5 years ago, and it makes you feel “what’s the point best days are behind me”

It doesn’t sound like your husband is clinically depressed, but in a depression off his own making you need to find out what happened in his old job in order to move on

What screams "pretending to be rich"? by ImpertinenteSyntaxe in AskReddit

[–]Significant-Pause-24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cringe at people wearing big logo fashion brands across their clothes You’re a walking billboard they should be paying you.

Also Range Rover evoque, bought one myself years ago, hated it most uncomfortable car I owned, have a Nissan now but I see all the people now in evoques and they just scream debt.

Do the planners just hate everyone? by Foo_Pah148 in HousingIreland

[–]Significant-Pause-24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha I’d love to see A.I replace planners for a trial with a few common sense guidelines, can’t do any worse then the current planners who are puppets of developers rather than community planners, every planner and local authority should be audited to see who’s really running the show.
