Well, guys, no need to worry about the immigration anymore: First of all, the ferry service will cover Rosslare / Gijon, and not Cork, and then, it won't carry any passengers as the route won't be direct between Ireland and Spain (it does a stopover in Nantes)...

I have a Malm bed from Ikea that falls exactly into your description. It's like this one: http://www.ikea.com/ie/en/catalog/products/S89887642/ I also got the bedside tables that go with it and it looks great, I have to admit.

You can ask at Brown Thomas. They sell them there, so they might also handle the repairs.

I got mine for 90€ at Brown Thomas in Cork. EDIT: It's actually this one: [broken link removed]

It was possibly this duck: http://failblog.org/2011/10/10/epic-fail-photos-probably-classic-news-what-a-quack/

You can check at Halfords.ie. When I bought the new radio for my car, I was suggested what else I would need to install it properly. You can search for the model of the Blaupunkt radio you got, and use the online "Will this fit my car" option. It will tell you what kind of adaptor you'll need.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I'm sure they have triple-checked everything ever since, but still...

In my experience, about three days. I don't know if there's something wrong with my kitchen, though. After that, they start shrinking. What I do to avoid it is to cut and freeze the peppers as soon as I buy them. Same with leeks. It's nice to have that job done when you feel a bit lazy for...

Blend it and it should be ok. If it's still too runny, you can re-cook it with some rice or some noodles and that will absorb as much as you require.

I found that a bit offensive. I would like to know which hotels you manage not to book those by mistake, honestly.

Incidentally, this is what I was listening to while driving to work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceX71za3GhY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdF1Rqet9E8&ob=av2n I didn't specially like Pearl Jam in the nineties, but that one, I like. I watched Donnie Darko yesterday, so I also had the...

Thanks Firefly! :D

I was at my faculty's library studying for an exam the next day. I went to pick some documents to the secretary's office and saw a lot of teachers and students gathered around a small tv set. They were all quiet, until one of the janitor's said we'd rather all go home. I asked him what was going...

Ahhhh... If only that was true... I have private insurance and had a surgery a few weeks ago. I was put in a room with a woman that would turn on her radio at 6 in the morning and turn it off again at about 2am (and that wasn't the worst thing about her). My husband asked if they wouldn't put me...

If someone is into The Beatles, I would highly recommend The Rutles (even George Harrison played a small part, which is amazing). Zoolander is a must for absolutely everyone. And then, an old-time favorite of mine that people tend not to appreciate: Dude, where's my car?

I've had some problems with Sky recently. Some channels give me a signal error, while some work, etc. I called them and they asked for 100€ to have that repaired. I declined the offer and asked them to put me through with the cancellation team. They passed me with the manager instead who...

I passed the test a few months ago. One thing that I learnt is that everything depends on the test center, so the instructors generally tell you what the testers want to see you doing in that specific town (I tried first in Little Island and then in Mallow and there was a huge difference on...

Not to mention that the Tigra is lime-green on top of all the rest... :D But it was cheaper and smaller. And now that everything's fixed, I have to admit that I quite like driving it.

I've been renting through carhire3000.ie a lot lately for rentals in the US mainly. They use different rental companies. I've seen that for one week rental picking up in Toronto and dropping off in Vancouver, they have a number of options under 300 euro, so maybe that could be of help :)

My husband and I generally get to Gerona on day 1, provided the ferry arrives to France at around 7am or so. We (obviously) arrive at around 10pm or a bit later. Then it's another 7-8 hours to Alicante for the next day. It's ok-ish on the way there, but once you have arrived and think that you...
