Hi Folks, There is now a free "Planning Viewer" App from Cork County Council which was mentioned recently in the Irish Examiner and may come in very handy for those people building or going through the planning process in County Cork. The App shows all recent planning application...

I like your thinking Palerider but I have *slightly* come to my senses and just bought a car at the weekend. The New Dacia Duster 4x4. It's its first time in the UK/Irish market having been a massive success across Europe the last few years. Its extremely competitive pricing, highly...

Hi eirefinq, I had a Opel Insignia Turbo SRi 4x4. Haven't decided what to get yet but with kiddies (hence bike is not an option) will have to finally be sensible (kinda :) )in my old age! Will see what this budget hits us all with first! Cheers.

Thanks for the advice folks. I'm going to go and get the bike instead after all that! :) @SarahMc just because I can't afford 20k up front it doesn't mean I can't however afford €96 repayments per week(based on an APR being of 9.4% with some institutions) and still have enough to pay for...

I just want it :) My car is the only thing in life I ever treat myself to so yes €20k is needed to get what I would like and at 412/month I can afford to pay it if required but just wondering could I save myself some dosh any other way with what I currently have left from my last car.

Thanks pc7, Yes this is what I was thinking of doing but I don't want to go down the Hire Purchase route and if I have €13k sitting in my account now and only two years to clear my o/s balance with AIB then this sounds attractive also. All i need to do come March is get a personal loan for...

Hi Folks, First of all a breakdown of my current situation. Car was just sold for €13,000 In order to clear my AIB Car Loan would be €11,450 (this was a 5 year fixed loan with only 2 years remaining - non Hire Purchase) I then hope to buy another car in Feb/March next year and will require a...

Cheers! Why would you recommend this one over the others?

Hi Folks, Can any camera experts out there help me decide which camera to purchase: FujiFilm FinePix HS20 EXR (€369.95) OR Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ100 (€355.95) OR Nikon Coolpix L120 (€199) If you can recommend anything better than these for around the same price let me know also. My minimum...

Thanks for the advice folks.

Hi folks, I was watching this post with interest as I'm in a similar situation except I'm currently on a tracker mortgage. Was looking at paying off a 100k on a remaining 160k mortgage (19 yrs to go). Bank has informed me if I do this my repayments will drop from €920 to €325 per month...

I wouldn't want to say. Anyway I rang the store in question and they said it should be ok to get a replacement as long as there is a definite problem (fair enough). They have never heard of thisi tv having any problems and wondered was it something to do with sky rather than the tv. So I...

Had a different problem with a previous tv and when they took it away and fixed (€300) the problem then one problem lead to another. Definitely don't want to go that route again and will be requesting a new replacement straight away.

Hi Folks, Well my new Sony "Turbo Charged" TV (10 days old!!!) is starting to go on the blink. There have been clicking noises coming from the back of the unit when watching the tv and when in standby mode. The screen is now appearing to show a strobe light effect(which seems to be...

Hi Folks, Haven't purchased a tv in 5 years and unfortunately my latest one has packed it in. Now I'm into a world of the unknown. Plasma, LCD, Series 6's, Contrast Ratios, Bravia Engines, Sync this, Dynamic that!!!! Could someone perhaps give me a highly recommended tv within this price range...

Yeah, we've decided just to purchase a new one (hopefully with 3+ year guarantee!) Noticed that this problem is intermittent however although still a pain in the a**!! I was reading in the room yesterday and whilst doing so kept switching it on just to see if it would kick start itself and after...

Ouch! Sounds nasty alright. I doubt those lovely people at Sony would give me a new tv. Yeah right! I might ring an engineer with the description and see how much it is to replace a high voltage generator! Sounds like it might be best to buy a new tv howvever i don't think I'll be going for a...

Hi Folks, I tried turning my tv (SONY KV32FQ86) on this morning and it keeps shutting itself down into stanby mode. (Red light blinks 16 times, pauses, etc, etc). The TV switches on and just as the sound comes on and the TV screen is about to launch it pops off. Then i get the 16 flashes...

Right folks, I'm now confused. Just rang a main ford dealer and having waited 24 hours on them getting back to me been told that they could install something for the isofix seat but wouldn't recommend it as the seat may not be stable!!!!:confused: Does anyone out there have a "Stable" isofix...
