I'm also not sure what to do I logged on online to vote. Despite there being two voting forms, I only seem to be required to vote online once. Fair enough...whatever. But I'm not sure which option I should opt for when it comes to the sale of Vernizon shares. I don't reside in Ireland...

Thanks Emerald, that's what I woudl be afraid of. But I'm such a scaredy cat sometimes, that I wanted to check to see was it reasonable and/or necessary to have such proof. Gerry, we are the landlords :) We do of course have insurance, landlord insurance, but I need to check to see what it...

Hi there, I did a quick search, but could not find anything specific to this question. We are looking to hire someone to remove a tree from our front garden. The tree is probably about 2 meters high and 2 meters wide...not very pretty! It's an evergreen - started off as a tiny Christmas tree...

Hey, I just wanted to say we also put in a lump sum against our mortgage with KBC with the belief that we could re-draw it again at a future date. Earlier this year, we did withdraw a sum of money from this re-draw facility with no problems whatsoever. KBC came back to us quickly and handled...

What about the money going to pay minister's spouses pensions and gratuities to their children until the age of 21? No-one annoyed about that? I'm bloody horrified and I'm not even living in the country anymore!

Learn online here...www.ranganna.com. They may not have the absolute beginners up and running yet...as in A1 level, but they are working on it. You could email them and see when they expect to have it ready.

Hi Jo, Thanks for that. So there is no benefit from making separate payments to the tenant for each expense in this case? I thought we might have to prove to Revenue that although the receipt is in our tenants name, we then repaid our tenant the exact same amount direct to their bank account...

Hi, I have a question on this. Our tenant has asked us to pay for a dishwasher and since we were told by our letting agent, this expense would probably crop up, we were agreeable. The tenant paid for it on his visa card and he sent us a copy of the receipt. We were going to make a transfer to...

"Romantic Ireland's dead and gone, It's with O'Leary in the grave." Some patriot Bertie is :mad:

I'm just sick after reading about this. What a disgusting person he is. It's hard to believe he was called the 'Man of the People'. I can think of a fair few choice terms which would suit him a hell of a lot better :mad: And why are taxpayers still paying for his outrageous expenses...how...

Hi there, Thanks for the replies. I suppose I am more inclined to agree with SparkRite as he agreed with me :) And backed it up with some scientific theory. It may sound unbelievable, but when the dryer is on in the kitchen, there is a noticeable change in temperature and humidity, and the...

Hi there, I'm just looking for some advice. I have a feeling I know the answer, but my husband wants to be sure. If we were to move our condenser tumble dryer into a small utility room (very small) where it would sit next to the fridge freezer and somehow on top of our washing machine, I...

5 But I always planned to leave Ireland. I've shared a house with people who grew up in mainland Europe and maybe it opened my horizons a bit. I like many things about where we live...gorgeous German town, weather is much better without being too hot, Germans are nice and cheerful here. I work...

I've just watched yet another news report about the surprise that the Central Bank has pumped more money into the six Irish banks than expected this month. It seems that there has been nothing but endless amounts of money pumped into these Irish banks. Where is it going and why is it not coming...

Hi Ciaran, that's what I was looking for - brief and concise. Thanks for that. mica

I agree with Bob, families often give the strongest opinions on what you should do, but it is often not the best advice. That's my experience anyway. You can listen to all the advice, but you don't have to act on it. Only you can know what makes you happy and what makes you miserable and where...

[broken link removed] I know that the Irish banks are in the stew, but what about KBC Ireland? What is their latest credit-rating and can someone explains what it means? All I know is that AAA+ is good and everything else varies from less good to very bad!! Would be grateful for some economic...

I disagree. George has a wonderful way with words both on radio and on tv. I think he has great presence on the radio. Much warmer than Pat the Plank and Pat is good on radio.

I have flown and paid for priority twice in last month. I don't usually bother. Both times it was a bit of a farce, as the plane was late landing, so we did not get any priority other than having our boarding passes checked first. Then all the other passengers had theirs done immediately and...

Our cat likes cottage cheese and sometimes blueberry yogurt...or petit filous...but not too much, as they're not so healthy for their digestion. She likes butter of course, but then what cat doesn't. Boy have we gone off topic here. Anyway, I just collected my princess from our cattery today...
