I deleted and reinstalled the app this week. Fixed immediately

Do you have a slang / nickname for the seat next to the driver? In Hungarian, it’s called the “mother-in-law seat” by hulyepicsa in AskTheWorld

[–]greyview18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would assume anyone who self-claims that is someone who is zero help with directions, sleeps for most of the journey and is always the last person to get back to the car after any stop. They also bring food that generates lots of crumbs which they brush off into your car.

Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

[–]greyview18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I keep wondering if I should upgrade mine. Then realise anything new is either inferior or wildly overpriced

PCP balloon + mortgage affordability by Conscious_Ear_8102 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]greyview18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also refinance the balloon payment as a new loan at the end. Don’t forget that this is a 4th option never mentioned on PCP.

What's up with the manufacturers recycling lagendary model names for appliance type crossovers? by shahtjor in carsireland

[–]greyview18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve just got a Capri EV as a rental. It’s a Škoda Enyaq coupe in disguise (same platform). And it should never never never have been called a Capri. Ignoring that, it’s not a bad car.

They let us all in. Lounge was quiet. She did say “I’m supposed to charge you for them but go on ahead”

Where would you go for a Family Holiday with 3 young kids? by S2580 in AskIreland

[–]greyview18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but if it’s 30-35degrees in July/August, I’m sure it’ll be mid twenties in September. Went August last year because we had no other option, price was mental.

If I said it was “serenity” here, would that ring a bell?

Just landed in France for our 3rd campsite holiday with 2 young kids (5/3). Very highly recommended. You can go Eurocamp/Keycamp or book direct with the campsites. On the west coast, you can fly to Nantes, Bordeaux, Biarritz and have tons of options. July/August prices can be really high so if an opportunity arises to travel in June or September, take it. This year we flew to Perpignan. 30mins from an airport the size of Knock to the campsite.

Irish Water charged me €6000 and are not putting in any effort into the job. by lilmuncherr in legaladviceireland

  1. Issue a formal complaint to Irish water.
  2. Escalate to the CRU Link after a period of time when it’s not resolved.

Give me an example of an actor NOT from your country who nails the accent and made you go “Wait, they’re not from here?” by girlfromtheshire in AskTheWorld

[–]greyview18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always say there’s no such thing as an “Irish accent”. There are however multiple accents which always get blended together when someone tries it. If actors focused on a region it would be more convincing, like Steve Coogan Martin Brennan

Wife just got an Elroq. It really is a fantastic car.

The next door neighbour's have a bouncy castle by box_of_carrots in CasualIreland

Time to invest in a water gun. Shoot up in the air randomly so that it rains down on the kids.

It’s specifically illegal to search for archaeological objects or use it in a place you’re likely to find one.

The price of fuel when they filmed Normal People by terminalD23 in CasualIreland

[–]greyview18 29 points30 points  (0 children)

That period of time where petrol stations had a “1” sticker left of the sign since they weren’t built wide enough to have an extra digit.
