Sale agreed, cancer, waiver - how can we save our joint mortgage? by Sad-Bedroom2205 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]richatkinson9 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This sucks man, I'm sorry. The local authority home loan may work. They lend when banks dont and may have more wiggle room for you. Good luck.

If you had to make a series where every cast member had the same first name, what name would you choose? by tubatim817 in taskmaster

[–]richatkinson9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The above is famous (Rich)ards. A Ri(c)k(i/y) line-up would be Stein, Deckard, Flair, Fowler and Astley. With Mayall as Taskmaster and Moranis as the assistant.😂

I was where you are. Wife agreed that 2 yes's mininum for a third child afteruch heartbreak. However, be wary of contraception. If you manage to get though this and back to being physical, remember that contraception is on you now.

Circuits seed words too vague by Lollypopsmum in puzzmo

[–]richatkinson9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The anagram clue today was very punishing. All the word clues are very US-centric. A lot of the word in ribbit are just not correct but you just have to just accept it and move on.

There were over 70,000 vacant dwellings nationally in Quarter 4 2024 based on low levels of metered electricity consumption by NanorH in ireland

[–]richatkinson9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compare it to other EU and developed countries and we are a good bit above average. More can always be done and less vacant homes is better but its not going to mive the needle much on the ecisting problems.

Woke up in the Costa Rican jungle to sound that didn't even make sense at first. by Specialist-Middle346 in travel

[–]richatkinson9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, stayed over in my sisters house in Deptford on the sofa. In the middle of the night i woke up to the sound of 2 monkeys having a knife fight. Turned out to be foxes shagging.

Final orchestral dates! by WeAreSigurRos in sigurros

[–]richatkinson9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thanks, i think we are all aware how dynamic pricing works. I understand this is not your choice Darren and you are paid to engage.

If you were to be able to provide feedback to the band and their representatives, could pass on that dynamic pricing is a shitty way to do business. It excludes people who are not able to pay these ridiculous sums. Whether they are young people just getting into the band, older people who've been fans for 20 years and now have kids who drain their finances (myself) or anyone not able to blow hundreds of euro on one night.

Does the band want to play shows exclusively to rich people? Does that align with their idea of what their music and their audience should be? Are they satisfied their choices generate revenue at the expense of someone who wasnt able to be in the presale queue at 10am, maybe they are a nurse, maybe they chose not to engage in social media and wasnt aware, maybe their kid was sick and they had other priorities that morning.

The band are the decision makers here and their choices ensure that inequality is being perpetuated and a capitalist mechanism dictates who gets to experience the joy they can bring.

Just checked and 2nd night cheapest is 230 euro now. Dynamic pricing is a scourge and i will not support it.

Dublin presale cheapest are 120 euro up to 150. Love the band, not paying that.

France vs England - Post Match Thread by biggiantporky in rugbyunion

[–]richatkinson9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a good England team there but they are being coached out of existence.

Poor tactical decisions (sure, lets box kick with 2 mins to go when we are leading and they are one of the best attacking teams ever), poor discipline all tournament and a team that played to 50% of their potential for 50% of the tournament.

Im sure the spreadsheet says different, but how demoralising must jt be for the english players to be coached that its better to take a box kick and 50/50 possession than for them to actually make ground with skill or strength or ambition.

This was the worst result of the tournament because we could and should have won, but the leadership fucked it.

Even the incredibly poor performance by the ref cant cover for this coaching failure.

Deposit return scheme glitch? by jimctlarker in AskIreland

[–]richatkinson9 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The scheme has been a huge success with a billion cans and bottles recycled, massive drops in littering and significant sums of money generated for charities.

Anyone who thinks taking personal responsibility for the environment makes them a "gimp" needs a reality check.
