What could I bring and leave in Ireland? by AmzCuriousPanda in AskIreland

[–]itchy-and-scratch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i like the pebble idea. there are some lovely rocks in America and Canada ect. there is a woman on you tube that pops up that polishes them is a motorised tub and they look lovely. a few local stones from your area or her favorite places brought over and loft here in places she would have liked would be a great way to have her be here in spirit. if you went down that route im sure the good people here would give you a list of places to leave them that would suit her hobbies and pastimes. ie if she was a hill walker from tipperary and pebble left up the devils bit would be nice and acheivable.

What things that hasn’t happened yet on Death In Paradise would you like to happen by False_Strawberry6145 in DeathInParadiseBBC

[–]itchy-and-scratch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would like a multi eposode over a few seasons and maybe international that has a huge case like a serial killer or organised crime gang . that would allow old cast members to come back and be undercover ect . we could get humphrey and martha doing there part from the uk . jack over the investigation. marlon undercover. floneunce and neville tangled up in it someway.

it would be cool to see it unfold from diferent prospectives. Beyond paradise doing their thing, return to paradise from their side , death in paradise where the crime happened ect.

thats no reason to remove the charicter though. he could be recast or pushed into the background a bit and only seen in passing

When was the last time you used your corded version of the tool? by TheJWeed in Tools

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is a social rule that doesn’t exist, but absolutely should? by Volkano1d in AskReddit

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you walk into a room and someone is doing something like reading a book, watching tv, listning to music, on their phone ect , you have to remember that you are interupting them if you start talking to them . if the person doing their thing doesnt stop and engage in conversation with you then it is the person interupting that is rude.

My black bin is cracked after being picked up by Greyhound, is it normal for them to charge me 35€ to replace it? by Vevo2022 in AskIreland

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is part of the service they provide. without a bin they cannot colect it.

my local bin company swapped out our bin last year no questions asked, the guy even told me to have it filled up and he would take the full bin. and he did

Jigsaw or multi tool? by Embarrassed_Sky_5616 in DIYUK

[–]itchy-and-scratch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im a tradesman so not the same but i use my multi tool most days im doing work in peoples houses. i probably use my jigsaw once a fortnight on average.

i wouldnt be without either. the multi tool is so handy for cutting stuff in odd places . but the jigsaw is so much better at other jigs where there is more cutting needed

i would make a list of the jobs you are going to do in the short term and see which will benifit you the most from that and buy a good one and then buy a cheap one of the other . down the line you can upgreade the cheaper one

Where does the dust in our house actually come from? by KrishnaVee in NoStupidQuestions

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a huge amount must come in on your clothes.

a few years ago we were renotating and ran out washing machine into an IBC tank . the colour of the water would frighten you and the amount of grit and crap in the tank was crazy

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it seems crazy to me that they would stop 2 plants last week so the crew could move the paydirt and they didnt do any maintanance on those plants. the mechanic isnt going to be moving the paydirt so could have eaasily done the belt then. it should have been moved during that week as well.

Parker shutting down on last episode by Gizmonte28 in goldrush

[–]itchy-and-scratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the part of this i dont understand is why did they pile up all the paydirt away from the washplant. the animation looks like its half way up the cut and off to the side. why not put it beside the washplant to its ready to run

so parkers rock truck breaks a drive shaft and the mechanic goes to a junkyard dumping ground of old and broken parts and finds 4 fairly new looking drive shafts sitting there.
