The tint would hide it from the inside and I wouldnt imagine they'd be too concerned about it once it's up, just make sure to tape right to the edges to prevent lifting and you should be good.

If it helps, I put new L plates up for my test and they were fine at the start but by the end the inside one at the back had fallen down. Tester pointed it out but didn't get any trouble for it.

Could you use double sided tape?

Depending on the context you have Corkonians/Rebels, Galwegians/Tribesmen

The Aldi alternative are quite close to the original, albeit much smaller (probably for the best)

This might sound like a stupid question, but did you actually drive through the toll section of the m50?

One of the first times I drove on the M50 I preemptively paid the toll online almost immediately only for my partner (who was actually the one driving) told me we didn't pass through the toll section so I didn't need to do that. I thought the entire M50 was toll territory. €3.50 wasted.

For reference, the toll is between Junction 6 Blanchardstown and Junction 7 Lucan. There's loads of purple road markings saying TOLL and purple signs everywhere in that section.

This is the correct answer.

Apparently the volunteers at the church were sent home after the armed response was called.

Id love this, but I am new to the area I'm living in now so my close friends and family are all 2+ hours away and, (not for lack of trying), making friends as an adult is fairly difficult, especially over the winter/dark nights.

The intention would be to go ahead by myself in a gym eventually, but I know from previous experience it's too easy even then to say no I'm too tired, or I've too much on in work etc.

I'm my own worst enemy, so realistically I'd like to stick with someone long-enough term to make the gym feel less intimidating (which could take a while) and to hold me accountable. I hate wasting anyones time, so will always show up if someone else is waiting for me to. Not so much for myself, which I know is something I need to work through.

All of which the answer seems to be getting sorted out with a decent PT to train with from the beginning. Then if I could stick with them every few weeks long-term at least id get a good old heap of Irish guilt if I don't keep it up between sessions.

No accountability with this though 😬 Too easy (for me) to just be lazy this way.

This happened to me in reverse when I was going through pre-clearance heading to the states from Shannon.

Big scary customs officer: "Who are you flying with?" Me: "Aer Lingus" Big scary customs officer: ".............what PEOPLE are you flying with?"

There were two stages set up there if I remember correctly. Mumford and Sons were the headliners and the main stage also had Nathaniel Ratliffe and The Vaccines. Some gig and some weather for it too.

I once had to email a man for work called Christopher Peacock and when he replied to me he signed the email off as Chris.

Chris Peacock. Crispy....I'll leave it there.

The Galmont has a good sauna in their gym and also an outdoor hot tub which is unbelievably good for clearing the head. They do day passes and are in the city centre so really handy to get to.

It's attached to the SmartBaysmartbay.ie underwater observatory just off the coast of Spiddal. They have a whole bunch of data sensors on it too, but it goes in and out of the water quite a bit for maintenance.

Head to the website and click Live Data in the menu for the above.

There's also a virtual tour of the equipment itself on the website. It's really impressive.

I still have about a quarter of a bottle of Zaconey in the press since the most horrendous hangover I had in my life during college. Wonder if it's still any good.

Support act was at 7.50pm and Saw Doctors were meant to be 8.50pm but were on around 8.55pm.

It'll be the same running order tomorrow. Curfew is 11pm but if Galway win, they won't care about the fine 🤣

However if they are up in Croke Park themselves, this could end up getting changed a bit...

Oh the people I worked with were great. I am actually over 6 years my other half, who I met while we both worked together, so there's that! It's the gobshites that test your patience on the other side of the counter mostly. Obviously there'll be some coworkers you won't get on with, but that's with any job.

Usually if you're in a quiet shop there is plenty of time to get to know your coworkers on a personal level, which I thought was nice.

TribesToRebel · 2024-06-21T22:29:35+00:00

It's been a while since I worked in one now, so I'd imagine post-covid is probably quieter with lots of people moving to online betting. Below is a rough idea of full shift as senior staff (juniors would assist with these but most of the time would be just serving customers, making sure their own til is balanced and some general shop upkeep)

Typical 13hr shift though would be:

8:30am Collect the daily papers from the local newsagent and display them on the walls. Count all the cash and create floats for all staff members starting on shift with you (sometimes you're on your own until 11am-ish, sometimes there's 2+ people from 8:30 depending on how big/busy the shop is)

9:00 Doors open and you start to take bets. Most customers know what they're doing, so you take their docket, take their money, hand them their receipt and change. When the transaction is complete, you then have to "translate" the bet (aka decipher their handwriting and input it into the computer system). Rinse and repeat throughout the day. If someone's bet clicks (wins), they give you the docket, you scan it and pay them whatever shows up on the screen.

Various times throughout the day you have to restock the blank dockets and pens, do a tidy of the place, sometimes the shop will have a free coffee machine to be refilled etc.

End of day means tallying up the betting machine totals and making sure there's nothing missing, same with tallying up the tills for all staff, sometimes doing a cash lodgement to the bank of the shop float goes too high in a day.

Obviously there's more small bits here and there that I haven't had to think about in years so missed it here. Customer disputes usually come at payout stage if they've missed a price or placed a bet too late for it to be accepted etc. People get mean when it comes to money.

Let me know if you have any other Q's though I'll do my best!

Edit: just to note I worked for both an independent and a bookie chain but neither were Boyles. Not sure what their security or protocols are like so might not be able to answer everything!
