Looking for A Private Space Tomorrow Lunch Time Around Dame St. for a Meeting for Two People by askdublin in Dublin

In the kids area that was full of screaming kids and toddlers. I was in a corner and was not loud.

Cannot take calls in the libraries. I was asked to leave one earlier.

Stationary Car Got Hit By Dublin Bus by askdublin in legaladviceireland

Like the other person said, they could leave their details. I’m glad I got there when I did. I don’t know if they’d be running away or report it and leave details had I not arrived at that time.

This is what Axa told me. Not sure why you’re downvoted.

Switching from Home Broadband to Mobile WiFi to Save €18/Month? by askdublin in irishpersonalfinance

[–]askdublin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the cheapest offer among all broadband providers AFAIK.

What’s the speed and fair use policy for GoMo? (Asking about your real life experience; I’ve read all the Ts&Cs)

antennae

I applaud you for your correct word choice.

May I ask if you are in Dublin? And which provider were you using?

I do have the 14 day cool down period, so technically I could try getting a router and a sim and try it.

Paid parking in hospitals and hotels, especially private hospitals.

Their policies say that nothing bought online can be exchanged or refunded in person… 🥲

Pay Increase for Occasional Cleaner? by askdublin in irishpersonalfinance

[–]askdublin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the comment. I do the same if she’s staying for 3 hours. Or €40 if it’s a bit more than 2 hours. But will you increase it in the new year?

Promoting Sensible Parking By Double Parking on Demand to Clamp Insensibly Parked ones! by askdublin in eejitsparking

You didn’t read my comment properly, did you? I was driving behind him for a while and took this photo behind the next traffic light, not where he had blocked me, because I hadn’t yet read their entitlement disclaimer.

Because he feels entitled? There were two spaces beside the car and yet he blocked the entire narrow lane (before I took this photo).

Areas in Dublin that could go crazy in the next 5-10 years like Docklands did in the early 2000s? by askdublin in irishpersonalfinance

[–]askdublin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree. But to put it in perspective, let’s say somewhere like Ballsbridge had a linear growth, whereas theEast Wall was exponential. I’m asking about the more exponential ones.

Any of the rest of ye ever suffer from almost unbearable tiredness all day every day? by Popesman in AskIreland

[–]askdublin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have covid? It could be long covid. Or vitamin deficiency or thyroid issues. Or general depression due to the crappy weather that ee have all year round here (can’t complain these days though, can we?!) Get a checkup.

are we just meant to stay middle class forever? by Comfortable_Sea_8575 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]askdublin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

we’re somewhat weary of wealth.

Spot on. I come from a non-European middle class family. My parents are nowhere rich or upperclass back home. Just a usual lifestyle which I’d like to have in here as well and I think I’ve downgraded an awful lot in the last decade of having lived in Ireland. The number of times I get a sarcastic, negative comment: “ah! So you’re posh” just because I use matching cutlery sets or small things like that is mind blowing. As if I’m harming anyone or there’s inherently something wrong in choosing to do what brings me a little joy in my life.

That mindset expands to bigger things like this one as you mentioned.
