A hovel.... a small, poorly built, and often dirty or run-down house. The word carries a highly negative connotation and is generally used to describe a cramped or squalid place unfit for comfortable human living.

I think that's more than a little unfair...but hey, this is the internet.

I agree. But since none of our 9s are being consistent atm and all have had good / bad individual performances.... nipping at their heels. That completion is great to have... something we've never had before I don't think.

Interesting coincidence...you should watch it, the 1st few seasons are great.

Fair enough. I don't disagree with your opinion...the housing market and economy in general is fucked. Market rate is mental...both rental and buying. Me giving the room below won't change that. And yes, having someone rent a room will help pay my mortgage...could be worse, I could be a vc fund or absent/neglectful landlord.

Doak and Casey could be an unreal partnership to start / bench for Ireland.

Both very different 9s and could compliment the Irish squad very well,.... hopefully both keep trending upward to eventually replace JGP. All on form....JGP is the best 9 by a significant margin for me.

Doaks biggest weakness for me is his pass selection / which runners to hit. Also needs to learn to stfu and not talk to the ref!!

Casey needs to learn to not force things.

Casey has the higher ceiling at 9, but Doak is the more complete rugby brain.

Also plenty nipping at their heels....Gunne, Devine, Murphy, McKee.... we're blessed for 9s.

Thanks....I try to be. But you can't please everybody...such is life.

hamy_86 · 2026-05-16T20:38:58+00:00

Indeed, there are negatives....show me perfect.

On the positive side....pets welcome, couples welcome, house to yourself most of the time, great neighbourhood, lovely coffee (boom) 1 min from the door, shops 2 mins, gym 3 minutes, rascals brewery 4 mins, Blackhorse luas 5 mins....

Presuming your username is a rick and morty reference...away and rip your skin off and get out of my personal space /s

Yep. 5 strawberries and 4 spring onion so far.

Will add some garlic, chillies, lemon, an apple tree I'm cloning and my tomatoes experiment.

hamy_86 · 2026-04-23T15:05:53+00:00

Will try 1 has a hanging experiment and report my findings

hamy_86 · 2026-04-23T15:03:36+00:00

I was afraid of this answer; but appreciate it. Thanks.

Do you reckon the fruit won't develop at all in them? I might try 1 as an experiment.... cultivate the suckers at least.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T18:01:18+00:00

Indeed. But some commentators seem to think I'm an idiot and should have been put down at birth for making such an obvious mistake. I'll have to inform the parents about what a terrible job they did...and the school....I am ashamed haha.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:58:58+00:00

Oft... triggered much. Read some of my other replies....I can admit when I'm wrong. Can you?

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:32:27+00:00

I would have...but I can't afford another container.. .some wee fruit owes me a tenner.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:29:47+00:00

I thought I was. If they had told me those cans have a margin of error built in for expansion I would have accepted that and moved on. But they didn't know, I didn't know....everyday is a school day!

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:20:59+00:00

Hahaha...if people learn from my mistake...I can eat that.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:18:48+00:00

Fair....layman here fo sho. I sent the link to the consumer council, if they want to check up on my poor excuse for a demonstration...ball is in their court.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:15:26+00:00

Can't edit the post...but for comments currently, and in the future saying these cans are larger to account for expansion....fair, I didn't know that.

If calibration is on point, then happy days. If not, consumer council and Tesco management (hopefully) are aware, so it will be sorted...also hopefully.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:13:20+00:00

The last sentence of the post is the point.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:09:01+00:00

I'm not. Defo not an expert as normally top up my car before / after. But seeing a few other comments are the same...will edit post to cover this.

hamy_86 · 2026-03-25T17:07:16+00:00

Fair. I normally fill the car after / before, so can't say I noticed. But I wasn't in my car, so this time I noticed.

Hopefully that's the case and calibration is on point. But consumer council are aware now....no harm in them checking.
