    Pre Approved Gold Cards back in the day.

    I received a pre approved Bank of Ireland Gold card back sometime in the 1990's and an MBNA pre approved Gold card in the early 2000's. With 20/20 hindsight I probably should have cut them up when I got them, but I didn't. The Bank of Ireland card had a £3000 Punt limit on the first card to...

    What next for Ryan Tubridy?

    Over the years Ryan Tubridy as a radio and TV presenter has grown on me, especially the radio show. Starting a channel on YouTube might be a way forward for him to keep broadcasting if other avenues are now forever shut.

    Lights in the sky, similar to northern lights.

    Is anyone else noticing lights in the night sky at the moment, something like the Northern lights but maybe not as colourful? For example white light on some of the night horizon in the countryside away from towns and cities. And also light in the clouds everywhere. I have seen it on a few...

    Buy Cans of Tuna as the best Investment at the moment.

    Just after watching a video that was suggested to me by Google or YouTube and basically it said to buy cans of Tuna as an alternative investment. I was buying cans of Tuna earlier in the year as they were very prominent in Lidl at the time. But there is only so much Tuna you can comfortably eat.

    Getting replacement key for Diahatsu Fourtrack 1999 with transponder?

    A question for any of the petrol (or diesel) heads here. A friend of mine has lost the key for a Diahatsu Fourtrack 1999. He got a key cut from the Reg or VIN number but it won't start the engine. I am assuming the key has either no transponder or has a transponder not coded to the engine. Is...

    I haven't been able to access Statements on the "new" Bank of Ireland App. There is a button saying statements but it just logs me out if I press it. It has been like this since I first started using the App in 2021 I think. I had signed up for PDF statements a few years previous so I don't...

    Should Card "Tap" limit be increased to account for inflation?

    I used to able to fill my fuel tank by tapping but now I have to put in my Pin most of the time. It is a bit of a nuisance. Maybe it's time to revisit the €50 limit for tapping your card and make it more inflation friendly. Maybe €100 limit?

    Driving at 88.5 KMPH for maximum fuel efficiency.

    In the face of rising fuel prices and energy prices driving at 88.51 kilometres per hour can save you money. It can take a bit longer to get from A to B but you have a more relaxed journey. As well as saving you money it is better for the environment than driving like a blaggard.

    M7/M8 Motorway Junction 19 seems to be incomplete.

    I was studying the map tonight for a journey in the early morning. I was looking to get on the M7 towards Limerick coming from the Cork direction on the M8. It seems to be an impossible journey without carrying onto Junction 18 Portlaoise West. Which is a fair bit of an extra drive and 2 Toll...
