Quote from: tintin25 on February 14, 2024, 05:52:15 PMLooking for a new car at the moment and seen a car I liked at a dealership last weekend.  Looking to buy outright so appreciate less room to haggle although the dealer wasn't budging an inch.  Would he take £200 less - no, would he do 12 months warranty even instead of 6 - no.  I wouldn't mind but the car had a small key mark on it and scorch on the alloy yet he wasn't being flexible at all.

Business must be booming for them, and there's another lad coming behind you ready to take it. In my own industry at the moment we're offering all kind of concessions just to secure the business and revenue that will naturally grow a little with change orders and the like. In 16 years I've never seen a buyers market like it.

Quote from: Puckoon on February 12, 2024, 05:32:47 PMPearl Jam rumored for Morley Park June 22. Where would the best places to stay be if you were flying into Dublin for that venue?

Have been waiting to see when they're here. How strong is that rumour?
Spot all the lads in their late 40s 👀

Early 40s Tony. Relax Yourself FFS!

We've been following them around for the last few years and have had a superb experience at each show. Each one different, different opening song, different set list every night. Would love to do Dublin but the prices of accommodation are scandalous. Would be as cheap to go to Madison Square and stay in NYC so I've lumped my luck in for MSG, Wrigley, Seattle, and Montana. If I get 2 I'll be happy.

All the other rumors were right - and it was just confirmed today after the release of the new single. First Irish show since 2010

Game was won/lost on the blocked extra point. Chip shot that would have ended the game 20-19, most probably.

Quote from: Tony Baloney on February 05, 2024, 08:50:09 PMCommon People. 1995 was the year I started dating the now wife. Dropped a can of beer in The Crescent and got it over her shoes. It didn't put her off and had a wee dance to Common People.

She told you that her Dad was loaded?

Golly, great thread - but the missing years 91-94 are going to lose some showcasing!

Song 2 - A most unfortunate success from a band that was significantly better than that effort!

Maybe mentioned already, but wanting to follow in Arsenal, and Wrexham's footsteps and get on the documentary bandwagon

Folks - the parents are looking to sharpen up the budget a little bit and are interested in this EE internet as opposed to the BT they currently have. 49quid vs 27quid. 24 month contract with EE and they have a statement that the prices will go up every year in March by an amount equal to CPI (about 3.9%)

Any experience or red flags with the EE group? Would use it for the odd bit of streaming, general wifi around the house for the phones and maybe paying the bills online. No gaming or downloading needed.

The Premier League is going to be poorer without him, even though he's been a bit prickly this last year or two. Huge loss to Anfield, they need to be wise with their next appointment to build on what he did for them.
