    A family member had just got a job there after a few years outta work. He is as delighted. Makes your heart sink it does. Management didn't care about the law though unfortunately.

    Really thinking of the families of Debenhams staff and Homesavers in particular this Christmas. My cousin lost his job from homesavers after being unemployed for a number of years. Very hard situation.

    It was neither and that crowd should be shunned if only to remind other potential retailers to play by the rules.

    I agree. The owner should be behind bars for the amount of times he has tried to pull a fast one of council throughout Ireland.

    Terraced house always a bad idea, smell travels through the party walls... or so I've been told.

    the infra red camera on the rescue helicopter 117 would have the abilities to detect these kind of grow houses, as a large amount of heat is required for growing, no idea if it is used in this manner though, and a previous poster could be right, the gardai may have been in fact informed about it, possible from odor's, who knows

    edit: or i should say, the uv lamps used to grow, give off a lot of heat, but if the house is well insulated, its probably pointless using an ir cam

    If all the neighbours have frost on the roof and you don't then you're either growing weed or you need to insulate the attic.

    If that is the case then it was rather foolish.
    In these times any strange smell will be noticed due to so many being at home.

    I really cannot imagine anyone, who is serious about growing, as this set up seems to be, depending on ventilation out a window.

    Does not compute for me ...

    leave.eu are coming to Waterford! Watexit is on!! ;)

    https://whois.eurid.eu/en/search/?domain=leave.eu

    The cheeky so and so's have got their way in the UK but are still refusing to leave the EU for good, so they have registered here with BSG (Durands Court, 7 Parnell St, Waterford) to keep an .eu web address.
