10 litres is 4.5 cent, hardly worth messing around with, if you did it every day for a year you would save €16.42, the price of a good bucket.

And if you slip on route to the toilet from the shower with your bucket of water, are you covered under your house inshurdance... awaits numerous calls to Joe in the future on this subject blaming Irish Water

Or a visit to your GP if you do your back in carrying the 10 litres.

What colour would the bucket be?








From reading the thread I'm glad I avoided the show this week, looks like it was an awful snoozefest

somesoldiers

are we going to run out of space on the thread today?....so to speak

It's the basics, spend one of the largest health budgets in the modern world per person but have it run by idiots and you can expect the health system to be rubbish no matter what additional billions are put in.

I got two stents aged 29, mater private, "yes I have insurance", job done... until insurance company sent me a bill two weeks later saying they wouldn't pay the 12.5K bill. I brought it in to the next insurance clinic in work and their representative told me to forget about it..

He'll get his operation date when he's 6 feet under.

At this stage if I was his kids I'd put the money together and get it done.

50k or die

somesoldiers

They will send out a letter in 6 months asking "do you still need the heart surgery", at that stage the poor man may be dead

baldbear

You're too old! Now be a good man and just die. Jesus that stinks.

they want him to pass away get the numbers on the list down

Atlantic Dawn

Sometimes these Liveline slots can mess up other patients lives where the HSE will try to PR spin it by getting him jumped up the list and drop others at the top off it to accommodate him.

vicwatson

I've a feeling that caller's da is "on the list" then?

Atlantic Dawn

Joe would love todays show, trying to get Ireland's sickest patient who is on the waiting list, I suppose it could be made like a gameshow where the viewers vote for who should get treated next week, the funding could be from the premium text line.

I remember that test we did in school she must have slipped through the net

vicwatson

Katie Taylor?

Atlantic Dawn

Private health insurance but can't get a bed? What's the point of private health insurance?

somesoldiers

yes there are other people on the list 399,999 unfortunately

Atlantic Dawn

Those countries don't have unions messing things up.

More a case of funding rather than unions in all fairness.........

€200k to refurbish? Some people bought actual 3 bedroom houses for half that.

Mike Guide 69

Is it a "bog standard house"??

the_monkey

Down 12k between them, 2 public servants ... poor people, now they are only on 170k a year ...

somesoldiers

I plan on building a 5 bed house in Meath later this year- my entire budget is 200K including site
