@CWeston_Indo .. if they keep this up then there won’t even be an incentive to work any more - many will just do the bare minimum and get the State to pay for the rest - FG/FF must understand by now that they can’t buy votes at this stage but, they can certainly lose them !
@patphelan Pat, the best option always is Mahon or Bantry - Bantry is a drive I know, but it’s an amazing facility - CUH is beyond capacity and has been for years I’m afraid .. great staff, but swamped ..
I really like this ! It’s one thing understanding what intellectual property is or what commercial clauses are, but it’s another thing to make them work for you ! That’s the fun bit !

These are pilot whales photographed at the Porcupine Seabight (SW of Ireland) in 2013. They are deep diving specialist. They use a form of sonar to hunt. It’s also a hotspot for deep diving sperm whales.
Missile tests carried out in this area would be an ecological distaster.
I have to say that the absolute and complete viciousness of EIR chasing €33.14 on my late mother’s telephone account (which they are aware has been cancelled because of her passing) is beyond reasonable - never again will I use them or recommend them #disgraceful#EIR
@BarberHey@13sarahmurphy Oh my, you are spot on here 🤣 - so many new Irish-passport holders who used to not previously speak so loudly of their Irish grandparents and parents walking through EU departure gates @ Gatwick and Heathrow these days !!
@sheilaoflanagan Can be for very many reasons - many times it depends on which siblings are not working or which are living closest - I attended all my parents visits as my sister worked in the UK - I took the time off work when it was needed.

@cooper_m It’s a tale of the jabs and the jabs-not at this point - if we control inward migration into the country we should be able to open - many will head to the North either way - if we open, then people can decide what they want to do -if the numbers rise, then we pull back again.
I've being driven demented by the number of 'this is open in Europe why isn't it here' takes I'm seeing. We have one of the lowest deaths per 100k in Europe precisely because we haven't taken those risks. The exception was xmas and it doubled our total deaths.
When he’s not building rockets, boring tunnels beneath Los Angeles, or sending cars into space, Elon Musk reads a lot. Here are 9 nonfiction books he thinks we should all read.
