GAA fans still integrate at games.....don't have to be kept apart. Football fans.....a very different breed altogether.

Jaysus, next we'll see Arlene serving communion at the Pope's mass in Knock.

The 0.99% is the rate you pay which is a discount of standard variable:

1 Lender could increase their standard variable rate or
2 Bank of England could put up base rate

I don't think the SVR will rise by more than 1% in next two years

From Markethill no less.

Not the first one, Seamas Mallon was in the Seanad a while.

And they don't make them like him anymore

A bloke is rushed to the new A&E at UHL, with a Morphy Richards steam iron up his backside,
"Good grief, " said the doctor, "I thought I'd seen it all, how on Earth did you manage that?"
"Well, " said the bloke, "it happened just after my wife opened her birthday present. "

Saw a statistic that said of the near €2 million prize money on offer over first 3 days at Punchestown, Willie Mullins has won €1.25 million, with 12 winners, 12 different owners and 8 different jockeys

Amazing achievement 😎

Apologies if this has been told before....

Young Catholic lad 16 years old living on Falls Road in Belfast at height of the troubles decides to run away....gets to England, joins the Merchant Navy and is at sea for 35 years...retires and decides he will visit Belfast as the GFA has been in force for years. Goes for a pint down Titanic Quarter and as he raises his glass he starts to take in his surroundings.....pictures of the Queen, Rangers etc....gulps, then drinks up and goes to leave....2 bouncers at the door stop him.....and he explains his situation....one of bouncers pulls out a dice and gives it to the man....he says "what do I do with this?"
Bouncer says roll it....and if you roll between 1-5 me and my mate take you outside and give you a kicking....guy is flustered and says " what happens if I get a six?"

Bouncer winks and says "you get another go"

What's the thoughts on this one considering potential interest rates increases and Brexit impact etc?

2 options:

0.99% variable for 2 years (discount off standard variable)

Or

1.89% fixed for 2 years

If the SVR is 3% then I would think going with the fixed is best....i.e. the 3% - 0.99 discount is still higher than the fixed 1.89......or am I missing something.

The decision by the medical professionals hasn't been taken lightly, and yes as a parent you would do anything for your child. For anyone who has been faced with the decision to turn off life support it is very difficult but in my own experience we made our decision based on the medical evidence and what was best for our family member. Had he survived he may have been able to communicate by fluttering his eyelids, and for me that is not living.

I had an online account and was placing a large single bet £5000 at 11/10 and three times the site crashed....eventually had to ring them and they offered me 10/11 so I told them stuff it and closed the account. They hate paying out.
