    Every young person should get €100k tax credit instead of a lifetime CAT allowance

    But the people who "did the right thing" were your parents, not you. You're arguing against the state giving people money for not fending for themselves ('handouts') but arguing for you to receive a similar handout for doing nothing.

    Disclaim Inheritance

    They are trying to hide the assets so that the state/tax payer picks up more of the cost of the nursing home care than the inheriter.

    Velux window and front window

    I don't think that's possible. Are they not a sealed unit of two panes?

    Has the CCPC any clue about pensions?

    Sample size is not the issue. It's the sampling methodology. Depending on the confidence levels/margin of errors you're willing to accept, a sample size of 757 can be representative of the required population. But if the respondents are not selected appropriately then the research is of little...

    Is Maria Bailey trying to make a come-back?

    The swing was there for patrons to sit on for photo ops. It's not the same as people climbing up on tables & chairs. I think Bailey had cause for redress, if she incurred the injuries/expenses as stated. However, subsequent information suggested that the injury wasn't as described.

    Is Maria Bailey trying to make a come-back?

    A swing, in itself, is not a problem. A swing in a bar, which will only be used by adults and surrounded by hard surfaces is a problem. It wasn't an appropriate installation in the first instance.

    Is Maria Bailey trying to make a come-back?

    I disagree that she should have accepted responsibility for injury. The venue should be responsible for the swing. It's not an appropriate thing for that setting.

    Any idea why RTE Radio 1 is gone from Virgin cable?

    As it is on mine. The issue is specifically getting it in a first gen Google Nest Display. I can get it on my android device, Google Nest Display (2nd Gen) and Google Nest Speakers! Google say it's an RTÉ prob. Not that I take their word as gospel.

    Any idea why RTE Radio 1 is gone from Virgin cable?

    A tangential issue...Radio 1 has disappeared from the Google Nest Display/TuneIn interface. When I contacted Google they said it was a problem at RTE end. All other radio stations work fine...

    Considering moving to Westport

    Traffic is very bad in Westport. The new road might alleviate some of that. Getting from one side of the town to the other is very arduous for many hours of the day.
