Yeah I'm on a tracker, and I won't give that up... Think I'll be saving up so, think a personal loan would cost too much as I need about 50k.

Looking for advice on financing an extension on my home. Have our mortgage currently with BOS, remaining mortgage is 150k and value of house is approx 285k. Presumably BOS won't lend to me as they have pulled out, is my only option a large home improvement loan with AIB or similar....? Have I...

Thanks for that. Was just looking at their stuff today. Am redoing a small bathroom in a couple of weeks so will definitely look into them, how much was delivery in total for you?

Point taken techni-fan, thanks for that. You are right I need to have a think about things before I go in to see them.

The reason I left is that I would have been paying 140euro per month for the privilege of working and sending my children to creche. My employer knows this but was not in a position to increase my salary so therefore leaving was my only option. I am available for work (albeit a slightly higher...

I was due to return to work in June after maternity leave and unpaid leave however my current salary wont cover the creche fees I would be paying for my 2 children. I have since handed in my notice but am wondering will I be entitled to JSA. I would like to find a job that at least pays me...

Re: Advice on "Combined Insurance Company"? Pushy "hard sell" sales tactics? A guy from this crowd knocked on my door at 8pm last night, looking to speak to the man that used to own my house (now deceased). This chap basically barged his way in, which was actually a little scary as my husband...

Sandtex Ivory Stone is nice, not very creamy more of a off white.

Also I think that the house in Lorcan Road (the Omni side of the M1) and Shanrath Road would suit you too, they are bigger than the Shanliss area with much bigger gardens. We settled around here and love the area, had looked at Shanliss houses but they were far too small, lots of pokey rooms...

Any idea of the costs of replacing flat roofs per sq m?

Am searching for window boxes like the glossy black pots the garden centres sell, have tried all the usual Homebase, B an Q, Woodies etc and a few garden centres with no joy Has anyone spotted them anywhere?

I have used them in the past and also found that the stuff didnt grow. Have been thinking of using www.dyg.ie which looks like a great site. Wondering if anyone has used them before.

Another Holles St patient here. Went semi-private last time with a consultant who I saw each time (but only received one scan - the big one!) I paid for a private scan myself in the early weeks in Charlemont Clinic by the canal. This time I changed consultant to Declan Keane, who although...

I recommend Templeogue Windows, actually got a recommendation from a few people on this site. They were by far the best price I received for 9 windows and a door. Were fast, friendly and very reliable - and they did a great job. Ph is 4935318 No affilation to them other than being a...

Totally worth a shot, I know 2 people who did these (albeit in boomier times) and it worked a treat. Especially if you are really after a specific house in a specific area. A lot of people might be interesting in selling but didnt want the hassle of putting their house on the market, especially...

I have used a guy a good few times John Murphy, based North Dublin but travels around I think - ph 087 400 4552. Excellent and reliable and cleans up too - a rare mythical creature indeed!

Yeah I think Bedroom Elegance are coming out the most competitive, will check out Town & Country too though. Ikea dont have what I want unfortunately. Went to the Panelling Centre today and its 2000 for the materials, without fitting. There is a sale of but even still it would probably work out...

Went to Cawleys Furniture today and to say I was shocked at the prices is an understatment. I want an ivory high-gloss 3 metre wardrobe(so 3 doubles) with just basic rails and shelves in two of them and 5 drawers in the middle one - nothing fancy, no lights, no gadgets etc. Was quoted...

30x40cm is the average I put up, you need about 4 for this size, more if larger. If it is very big I would go with the usual method of drilling the wall. They specify the weight on the packets so you can judge how many strips are needed.

I have used them in the past few weeks and highly recommend them. Very easy to use and really hold to the wall...no pics have fallen off yet!
