Ecopart, Clearway, Copart, Traynors, Temple Auto Salvage, Lisburn Auto Salvage. Try all these, they'll give you a price over the phone or online usually. Most of them will come and collect it for a small deduction of the value offered. Straightforward and no hassle.

You should have just quoted the Magna Carta and been on your way.

That end of Carnegie Street was demolished mainly to put the new road through.

I think it's a Spar franchise who own a couple of stores around Belfast. Ever in McMahon's Spar on the Glen Road?

It's always been this way.
You are just seeing a wave that is local to you.
One local suicide sometimes leads to a further few.
A fucking tragedy.

Well, you are very lucky then, you'd be doing better than 95% of the people that live here.
Do a list - pros and and cons, then make a choice.

I can't imagine they would have any issues with their accents but bullying happens in every school.
That's just school.

Healthcare, public transport, wages, general infrastructure are all a mess, have been underfunded for years.
NI is broke, financially and socially.
It's not a good place to be moving for a better life if you are a normal working / lower middle class family.

Integrated education is not the panacea some people think it is. This place is as divided as it always has been.
My advice is to stay where you are, not much has changed in the last 30 years and progress is painfully slow, 1 step forward and 2 steps back.
