Mdf mold in a new build house.
Is it normal? Moldy mdf was used in a few places in the house. Should I be mentioning it or is it easy enough to clean off? Have already tried a little bleach and water with little success, should I just paint over it or get it replaced?

Sounds like you have a moisture issue which you need to address first. When did you first notice the mould?

The mdf used by the joiner was moldy before he put it on.

I'd replace the MDF first before investing in ventilation. If it was mouldy it would spread, MDF can hold a lot of moisture and unlike natural timber wont doesn't dry out fully. If its a new build house It shouldn't need additional ventilation, should have been designed in. Is any of the paint on the walls bubbling or flaky in the area the MDF is mouldy, if not I don't think you have damp issues.

The most ridiculous comment on here was Derry by 10+.

Jesus I don't envy his job, but somebody let the Derry PRO out of the broom closet in
Owenbeg and say something.

Story on the Irish News website now without naming RG. Can't understand Derry's silence, as someone mentioned at least try get a holding statement out.

Heard a clip on BBC news last night the correspondent reckoned George will never make king. Surprised to hear that, very surprised to hear it on the BBC. Tide must be changing on the main land.

Surely De Gea should have been removed for a HIA?

Anyone care to give a prediction for their own local area.

Slieve Gullion (South Armagh) 7 Seater
2019 Result - 5 SF, 1 SDLP, 1 UUP

The shinners are running 6 candidates this time to target the UUP seat.  It is very difficult to balance 6 candidates but they just might do it.  The Unionist population is elderly and dwindling and they really don't have the numbers anymore.  Older people are much more likely to vote than younger people, so that might save them this time.  The SDLP have an outside chance of getting two seats, they have an existing councillor in Pete Byrne and a good new candidate Killian Feehan.  Alliance are putting up a paper candidate and Aontu are represented by native New Yorker Reichenberg.  Neither will not put up much of a showing and there are no Independent Candidates

Prediction SF 6, SDLP 1

Hope Pete Byrne gets in, he's a more helpful on local issues than some of the SF around here. Unless your in the SF inner circle no point contacting them. I had a planning issue a few years ago, emailed SF, SDLP and UU. Pete Byrne came and met me on site and helped sort it, UU responded with some helpful links and numbers. SF yet to respond.

With the draw so early it leaves teams with options of throwing games. Not saying it would happen but it is potentially now in Kerry's interest to lose the Munster Final and finish up in a group with Monaghan and Donegal and leave Mayo for a rattle later in the year.

I don't get the rush with everything from draws to games on top of each other.

Selby. 147. First in a final

#scenes 😃😃

Cliff Thorburn, AKA the Grinder, was the first to get a break of 147 at the world championships, but what was his final points tally in that frame?

Was it not 151, Terry fouled early doors and the Grinder done the rest.

Delighted for him, he plays a good brand of snooker and seems a nice lad. Selby just dour

That was a great read. He died of cancer shortly afterwards if I recall correctly.

Was he the same lad that wrote "Around Ireland with a Fridge"?

Possible 12 frames tonight, the rate the frames are been played it will be mid morning before its over. Selby looks rattles but Allen cant punish, but he's in with every chance.
