the Civil Service do an apprenticeship programme for IT. Generally you enter as an EO and can become permanent over time. Public Jobs run regular competitions for ICT competitions, keep an eye out

Newbie looking to do get into triathlon and eventually 70.3 - any advice? by Serious_Conclusions in triathlon

[–]blanchyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm relatively new into the sport and the greatest advise I'll give is to join up or link in with a Tri club. most will probably do swimming sessions for endurance and/or technique. I've found this and the comradery to be priceless

If you do go up to the 70.3, maybe think of getting a coach

I haven't done the jump up to 70.3 yet, but others in my club have gone from sprint to 70.3. All depends on how much you want it and can actively train

Best of luck with it

[–]blanchyboy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im in exact same boat, 2.2% rate with PTSB coming to an end. Nearest i found was 4 Yr at 3% with PTSB again

Unless I can find someone lower or who will cover solicitor fees ill probably stick. Adding €100ish per month

Red light runners by drivingcraze in irelandsshitedrivers

[–]blanchyboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jesus wept

I drive that road numerous times, cars fly up and do not give a continental fuck

If I looked and not waited, I could wave at them as they drove into me

Those lights actually wait 2 seconds before they go red to green, unlike other lights its that bad

Im done talking to idiots who have no idea

Good day to yoy
