    Ryanair changed my flight times and they don't suit me

    Not quite true. Ryanair offer on their website, hotels, transfers etc. as you go through the booking process.

    Ryanair changed my flight times and they don't suit me

    At least you got the notifications. I have also received notifications both from Ryanair and Aer Lingus about minor 5 minute changes. I don't mind getting these. I wonder why the OP never received any notification. I wonder is there some sort of glitch in Ryanair software where super...

    Chasing the sun and the perfect road for cycling

    Cervelo. Pity about the first family blanking you. They seem to be taking it personally. Maybe you provided them with a small income that they were now taking for granted. I understand that Mrs. Cervelo was visiting this time around and you need to be nearer the town for her needs. Your...

    Chasing the sun and the perfect road for cycling

    Hi Cervelo. Just reading your comments in your other post. They make very interesting reading. I often wonder what makes people return home after they have made the big move overseas. I know that you were only away for the winter months but what do you think changed this year to make you...

    Health Insurance Medical Card Is Expiring - What Are My Options?

    If I qualify for a medical card for over 70's, I understand that I can get prescribed drugs and medicines for free but sometimes with a dispensing charge? Do I have to get to a nominated pharmacist to get these or can I shop around each month at different pharmacies?

    Aviva don't insure Hearing Aids.

    My home insurance is with Aviva. I received a phone call from Aviva after complaining that I could not get insurance on hearing aids under their All Risks policy and was advised to search online for an insurance company to insure them or ask the shop where I bought them for a suggestion...

    Ireland to move to Level 5 for January

    During the last lockdown where we were required to stay 5 kms from home our local footpaths were pretty busy. Many people kept their distance when out and about, but many did not. We have all seen the unaware selfish person walking down the middle of the footpath, leaving others to get out of...

    Delays in rolling out vaccine

    No. As others have pointed out not every vaccine will require 2 doses to achieve the stated efficiency levels right now. Some will only require one dose. (The current vaccine requires two doses but others are on the way) These vaccines have been talked about for some time. Why is it that you...

    Delays in rolling out vaccine

    We delayed the roll out of the vaccine. Then we brought the rollout forward by one day, that actually turned out to be a half day. We saw "Annie" get her jab, how many other people got the jab yesterday? If they cannot get in to the nursing homes to vaccinate people because of consent problems...

    Chest Freezers any thoughts?

    Thanks. I know of someone who bought and bought stuff to put in their chest freezer. Then panicked because they thought the stored food was past it's use date and threw everything in the bin? I have this fear that I might become addicted to special offers and just buy for the sake of buying. I...

    Chest Freezers any thoughts?

    I am thinking of buying a chest freezer. If Covid-19 and Flu is bad over the coming winter I am happy to go in to hibernation. I will not panic buy but start building up some extra supplies now. I have found at the moment that I do not need to visit the supermarket that often except for bread...

    Motor Insurance Credits/Refunds - what about Motor Tax?

    At least some insurers are making an effort unlike Aviva who say they will give a good quote on renewal. It will be interesting to see what renewal quote I get compared to the others I will get a quote from.
