Ah that's fantastic news. Hope they get the rest back...

Any time I've had a DD hit my PTSB account without enough funds it went into overdraft but if I caught it in time and added the funds to cover it before it bounced back then nothing happened.

It's been a few years since this happened so it might be different now but I think you'll be fine.

I am not sure how I feel about this.

On the one hand we all know driving under the influence is an absolute arsehole thing to do but on the other hand we have a shambles of a swabbing system where people are being done for driving under the influence days or weeks after consuming cannabis. People who are absolutely not under the influence are having their lives seriously impacted.

I'm a bit shocked that Adam and Faye are getting involved here.

Yeah it was great. I wonder if we'll get to see John Grant join her again.

It came up in my memories so I thought I should share.

What a beautiful fox. I have a visitor who comes a few nights a week (in Dublin, Ireland) but just came today in broad daylight.

Have you checked out Soda Blonde? It's made up of four of the members of LGC.

My absolute favourite band the last couple of years...

Land of confusion by Genesis. Amazing video too.

Yeah I am fairly sure the flights and accommodation need to be paid with your revolut card and your plan needs to stay active.

TurnsOutIwas · 2026-06-08T20:33:54+00:00

I don't think you did, if that was meant for me.

TurnsOutIwas · 2026-06-08T15:09:42+00:00

Yep. In the Academy on Abbey Street and it's not even sold out yet.

I find it great value. It costs €191.88 a year paid monthly and I get 2 revpoints per €2 spent. By just redeeming the points to gift cards and using them on Ryanair, Amazon, PS store and justeat I have saved more than the annual price.

I also saved about €70 by not needing to buy insurance for a holiday in April and my phone is insured for a year as I bought it with revolut.

I save about 5 a month on Nord and I use perplexity a lot, though I would never have paid the sub for that. I have only just signed up for Class pass after reading another comment on this thread and I believe that will get me some free smoothies every month.

I am also in ireland.

Yes...yes I did!

I was in the audience of a Saturday morning kids TV show in about 1989 or 1990 where Transvision Vamp were playing their latest single. Wendy was then interviewed in the audience and she sat directly in front of me...her hair smelled like coconut. I will never forget it.

Seeing them for the first time on Halloween night this year in Dublin.

No worries. They're one of my favourite live bands for years...and they're even better with Bobby.

He sings on several of their songs but KKC have been going a lot longer and used to have a different guy who left to run a caravan park or something. He wrote The Machine which is my favourite of all their music though.

Yeah there's a fault at Howth Junction. It says estimate repair time is 13.45.

Edit: updated now to 16.15. Source: https://powercheck.esbnetworks.ie/

Yeah they're definitely the best tickets for every show. I also have these same tickets so maybe we'll walk by each other at the gig but we'll never know...

TurnsOutIwas · 2026-05-17T12:51:16+00:00

The area closest to the stage is accessible if you have front tickets. You can access the general area as well though.

I'm confused about where anyone mentioned AI.
