We paid half that and were very pleased with our architect, drew up the plans, construction drawings, site visits, building regs etc. We didn't need planning though so maybe that made a difference

Thanks Thanks Dermot. I came across limestone slabs thati liked. What's your opinion on them? Cheers

I think you have to ask ' what does private education give (if anything) that state education doesn't ' Some people have an impression private school is 'better' but when you ask them why they can't articulate it. Many state schools have excellent teachers, send a high percentage to college and...

Which is exactly what I did :) thanks Decky

Buts its just him saying this...there is no objective person who can corroborate his view of whether or not the social workers had this attitude. Also where was his responsibility as a father? Do we know if he looked for custody ? How involved was he in his children's life ?

I posted a full weeks menu for 4 for 35 euro a while back but I can't seem to find the thread though :confused:

We always thought an architect would be a waste of money as our job was small and we knew what we wanted but we decided to get one in the end and it was definitely the right decision. He came up with new layouts we hadn't considered, advised on insulation, materials , building regs etc. you...

Ours was $350 ....we eloped too :)

Thanks for the link. I have read through it and am none the wiser ! It's all very vague. I was focussing on part one of schedule two that deals with excemptions and couldn't find anything to say that I can change it and nothing to say I can't . I have had discussions with a number of...

Resurrecting this thread rather than start a new one as we are currently in a similar situation although at the early stages and haven't touched the roof yet. How did you get on in the end OP ? Did you get your retention permission ? Where can I find out more about the exemptions if the...

Lidl and aldi are great. I used to do my shopping in Supervalu or tesco and I have changed to aldi and I save at least 50 euro a week. They do great Irish meat, lovely salmon, great cheeses and the offers on fruit and veg are brilliant.

That works out about 115 euro per week for a family of 4 - is that right ? Whatever about 35 per week you could definitely do it for a lot less than that. Even with 75 you could really up the fruit and veg in my above menu. Back in my day :-) we never had advocado, melon or blueberries or stuff...
