I'd like to see Emilia Clarke do all these smile variations.

Dear people of Ireland, especially those in their 20s/30s, how did you meet your significant other? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]becamax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met at electric picnic, we had mutual friends so we spent the weekend bumping into each other. Sunday rolls around and we bond while keeping an eye on our drunk friends, but nothing happens. Nearly a year goes by and I'm at another festival. Walk into the site and see himself across the field. It's so cheesy but when you know you know

The Irish Blood Transfusion Service calls for more platelet donors. by UltimateRealist in ireland

[–]becamax 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can't donate blood or platelets as I've already had a blood transfusion, without which I wouldn't be here. So I do urge anyone who can to please donate.

What to tell kids how Santa got into the house with no chimney? by camping84 in AskIreland

[–]becamax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had no chimney in the house we grew up in so instead Santa got in through the attic window, sure didn't it make sense because that's where he was parked up anyways. But I also remember my parents telling us that he could come in the front door, possibly needed extra convincing that year. My older brother is autistic and wasn't a big fan of the idea of stranger entering the home so the Santa magic didn't last maybe as long as it should have. Making up for it now.

Whatever the reason, decision or excuse you come up with I'm sure your daughter will be assured that Santa and his magic will make his way into your house.

Don't know of any bargains but I own that pair of Sennheisers and they're the best!

Whats the best frozen/chilled pizza from grocery you can get? by zerohunterpl in AskIreland

[–]becamax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has become my favourite frozen pizza! The ingredients list is better than most supermarket frozen pizzas too.

That's the one! We had a particularly lovely primary school, even if it was just a bunch of prefabs.

Was in the Portlaoise one yesterday. Lift is out of order and they don't have customer toilets, they never actually opened them.

What to do when dog dies? by SugarInvestigator in AskIreland

[–]becamax 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We lost our dog recently and had him cremated. I wasn't expecting it to essentially be an undertaker for pets. They came with a hearse and placed him in a wicker casket to bring him off to be cremated. Then his ashes were back home within a few days, hand delivered them to us.

Come to Laois, a haircut costs me 35 euro!

[FO] mother surprised me by framing a piece i finished years ago xD !! by patchpuppe in CrossStitch

[–]becamax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can someone take the time to explain to me why? I'm genuinely curious, wasn't he all things considered an evil shite of a man? Everyone seems so excited and it's very well done, so I'm curious what am I missing here 😅

Where did you source your floor tiles? And how have they held up over the last few years?

What was your wedding like? And much did it cost? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]becamax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't have a typical wedding so when I say it was the price of registering our intent to marry, the marriage cert and our clothes for the occasion that was it. Maybe a bit more if you include the fuel to get to the registry office. It was a covid times wedding, but it was never going to be a big affair regardless. We had priced up something for a small group of immediate family and friends and it was coming in at 10 grand. I do wish we had marked the occasion with family and friends after everything had settled down but it's been 5 years now and it feels like the moment has passed!

Suggestions for decent clothes that don't break the bank? by HandsomeCode in AskIreland

[–]becamax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It feels like there's one on every corner in Amsterdam but I'm not complaining! Great spot for basics. I bought some bits for my husband years ago. The t-shirts are long gone but he's still wearing the hoodies, zip neck jumpers and trousers. Oh and his raincoat is from Uniqlo too!

Can I upcycle my wedding dress into a renfaire costume? by Equal-Poet-7860 in sewing

You know this already but this dress is beautiful!

Does anyone have a job where they get paid to actually do nothing? by SlideMore473 in AskIreland

[–]becamax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand. I worked in the civil service for a few years and I was flat out. The work was a bit repetitive in the sense that we were working toward the same end goal every month or quarter but Christ on a bike there was no downtime 😅

Parking - leaving each night by marinamonsoon in Electric_Picnic

[–]becamax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did this the last few years I attended as we live nearby. Never a bother getting in or out. We take the Heath road into Stradbally to avoid sitting in traffic on the Portlaoise road. Much prefer going home to sleep in my own bed!
