Thank you so much noproblem and dereko1969 - recommendations much appreciated. Will investigate further.

We are going to Spain in September (probably will have to be southern Spain to ensure good weather at that time) and are looking for an area that we will have nice leisurely cycles to surrounding towns/villages on quiet safe roads and where we will not require car rental. Dont mind if its not...

Thank you for that. Would u think purchasing a property in Ireland at the moment wit savings therefore would be a good idea .

Just looking for thoughts on the following. We are wondering whether we would be better off buying a second home in ireland or spain. Basically the "plan" is to relocate for 6months of the year to spain starting in about 4-5 years time. We would take a long term let for the 6mths in spain. One...

Thank you grizzly and Rayn. Much appreciated

Anybody recommend reasonably priced apartment within walking distance of centre of La Rochelle for 3 adults.

Many thanks for that asdfg. So although I will not be working in Ireland and will be living in Spain for the majority of the time do I still get tax credits to write off against my tax liability on the rental income?

Trying to do a bit of research and a bit confused to say the least. We are looking at relocating to Spain in a couple of years (living there for 8-9mths of the year) and the plan is to rent out our house here in Ireland to generate an income to live on in Spain. We envisage that we will not be...

Many thanks Ravima. We are just back but we found the Banana Tree on the Paseo Maritimo and were eating well every night for €50-€55 per night (including drinks) without having to live on chips/pizza etc. Would recommend it to anybody heading that direction as some of the places along these can...

Any recommendations for restaurants in marbella which won't break the bank. Looking for nice good quality plain food - lasagna/baked potatoes/pizzas/chicken/etc. Two adults and two "adult" kids. Ideally would like to eat out most evenings but without breaking the bank over a 9 day period.

Thank you DirectDevil for going to the trouble with such a detailed response. My friend has been with his solicitor who advised that proceedings have just been served on the company itself and they have to be given a reasonable time to respond (4-5wks). After that they will be given a 21 day...

If the company is a limited company does that not mean that the owners cannot be held liable?

It would appear to be pretty clear cut then for him. It seems terrible and dreadfully unfair that his employer cannot be held responsible for the dreadful accident that happened my friend and that it is the injured party who is the only one who loses out.

Under what circumstance might an insurance company "decline indemnity" in personal injuries claims such as this.

Thank you so much to everybody for replies. Just to clarify it was the insurance company who stated that they are "declining indemnity". The ex employer has not responded to any correspondence sent by my friend's solicitor and have not nominated a solicitor either as was requested.

Thank you for that Brendan. If he were awarded a claim by the courts would he be deemed a creditor of the company if it were to be wound up

A friend of mine has a personal injury claim against an ex employer for a pretty serious accident at work some time back. He went through the PIAB system and as his ex employer would not respond to any PIAB correspondence over a period of almost 12 months he was advised that they (PIAB) were...

:):) Thanks for all suggestions folks. Keep them coming. We are confined to the bank holiday weekend in June i'm afraid.

Any suggestion for somewhere to go within Ireland for the bank holiday with two 16 year old girls and recommendations on what to do. Somewhere with nice walks, pool, bit of life for the girls in hotel in evenings, any good musical shows in the area, etc. etc. Any recommendations much appreciated.

Stayed in quality hotel Youghal and can recommend. Stayed in apartment which was lovely and extremely spacious. Had pool and hotel on beachfront.
