I think you'd need to clarify if this is really a party wall i.e. right down the centre of the boundary line, or is it on the neighbour's side only? If it's on their side, I believe there's nothing you can do except put up something on your own side. If it's shared, then I understand they'd...

So, I brought the plank to the shop, shop guy got what I was saying but neither he nor their fitter had an idea unless the wall or the floor was out of shape. Despite the builder cutting corners elsewhere in this 25 year old house, that room is remarkably square and floor level. In any case, I...

The cut edge just looks like solid MDF particle board but perhaps there's a material core that's getting affected like you say. Any full planks click together just fine. I'm gonna bring it to the shop tomorrow and see if they or their fitter have any advice. I tried locking in the second row...

I'm trying to do the first row of laminate flooring which is coming out wonky. I'm cutting it down by 7cm, almost half the width, to account for rad pipes and other fixtures in the room. After putting down the first narrow row, when I try to put a second row plank in place if I push it in at one...

Have this just today. I don't think there's any more credit checks but you have to make sure you have: - The property valuation done through AIB (takes 7 - 10 days to arrange) - Life insurance set up - House insurance set up - Direct Debit mandate signed and uploaded to them in the mortgage...

Power showers use far less electricity than electric showers. If you have gas, almost certainly it's cheapest to heat the water with that. You could experiment with using the immersion during the night on the cheap rate. Gas or night rate are going to be a lot cheaper than 7kW showers usually...

We got this guy to do ours, was cheaper and still a very good job 5+ years later: http://storagemaster.ie/

Interesting one. Whether you're self employed or PAYE, you should use Revenue MyAccount to update your tax credits for this year and onwards. However, if there was a mistake and last year's credits were incorrect, then it's different for two cases: - If you fill out a Form 11 every year, I...

Not necessarily where Ireland would put it, but offshore nuclear plants are possible. I heard Sarah Cullen from 18for0 mention that there's at least one of these in production use already: https://www.iaea.org/sites/default/files/21/07/iaea_webinar_marine-based_smrs_ofnp_m_golay_18may2021.pdf...

A bit off-topic but for anyone interested the EC published an interactive map of all the power plants in the EU: https://energy-industry-geolab.jrc.ec.europa.eu/

Good point, didn't realise it was within 90 minutes. Makes it very unlikely so! #imwiththebank ;)

To use the app, at least on Android, yes you'd presumably need password, fingerprint, etc. But if I got someone's Android phone, brought it home and plugged it in via USB to my PC, I could make a reasonable stab at using tutorials on unlocking the phone first. Whether the application data is...

Vast majority of the time, the victim is taken in one way or another, usually a phishing site or they read out the OTP to a scammer but I read that Twitter thread and some people contributed that several UK banking apps do allow you to view the current PIN...

Really like this Brendan. Reusing an existing mechanism rather than a new complicated one involving a lot more administration. Getting people into the habit of pension contributions as a method of saving for their first house would also be an easier habit to continue after the homeloan is paid...

I don't know is this a common attitude in the banks - if the business fights back at all then refuse the chargeback. I had an experience with AIB, where I was charged more than quoted by Patreon (they don't quote VAT correctly and admitted the wrong price was a "visual glitch"). AIB initially...

I was a PD too once upon a time.... until last November that is, when I renewed online with no bother. There's gotta be some good Harney or O'Malley jokes here...

It's capped at 50k alright but rather than just being gone altogether, it's being scaled down over three years and only gone altogether from 2026. Additionally, if you do low mileage the maximum BIK rate of 30% will be dropping to 22.5% for Class A emissions vehicles. This site has a very...

Agreed, although I usually agree with what you post in this thread (sorry Duke). I think I've only disagreed on a couple of things but I have not kept up to date with the technology and the various projects. Leaving altcoins and compute coins like Ethereum aside, I envision the main use case of...

I think his point is that he can keep his wealth in crypto and only at the point in time where he wants to spend it in his local Centra, then it gets converted at whatever the going rate is. If you had no faith in the Euro because you felt it was totally unstable, it would be akin to keeping...

I had Cuala security install a GSD-based system that came with an app for self-monitoring the place. No subscription fee, I just use the app to get alerts and turn on/off the alarm remotely. Quite happy with that system and the service I got. I don't see much added benefit to paying a third...
