    Worth giving animal control a shout if thats the case so! They might be able to help?

    They can get around so it could be he travelled cross country to find a nice shaded wooded area. I reckon he is an ambush predator, so would need the trees and leave and such. So unless the wood is surrounded on 4 sides by roads, he could have come in via a field.

    Ugh... I hate this time of year.

    Car insurance renewal time. Where I have to make up a fake number and email address so I don't get inundated by pushy car insurance salespeople...

    So folks, how do those of you who drive deal with this time of year? Stick with the current company or twist and shop for options, therefore opening yourself to calls from several companies...?

    Ring current guy, ask for quote. Ring chill.ie, tell them current quote. Get better one. Ask original company to match, if they dont, go with chill.

    Chill got me fully comp on any car for about 25% less the previous insurer, so i was happy out.

    I think i moved into a newer safer bracket so thats how they managed it, but they checked with mutliple companies, so it was relatively hassle free.

    Looking at a place called Token to meet?

    Meh, Chill offered me 30 euros better, with my current company - than the offer they sent me in the post.

    Rang current company, told them Chill's offer - they knocked 60 quid off the price for me to stay with them :pac::pac:

    Result!

    Chill are only a means to an end. But useful!

    I find it funny though. Chill's best offer was through my current insurance company....

    I ring up current insurance company and they better their own offer :pac::pac::pac:

    (Well not really, but that's how it looks)

    Argh I hate insurance time of year! I ring around though.

    Was looking at getting a newer car (have a 141) but that pcp stuff has flooded the market. Was not happy with the trade in deals I was offered. The price I’d paid for mine had seriously deprecated so gonna keep hold of it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    What kinda car is it SM?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Insignia. Looked at the new ones they are really bad in comparison.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,217 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I jumped 10 years this year from an 03 to a 132, so insurance is way down anyways. Got the sum total of frig all for my own car of course.

    Oooh though... upgrading from a 141 Strawbs? Fancy ain't we :P

    :pac:

    Im waiting for an abriged version of the Hobbit with all the ****e cut out, similar to the Jarjar-less versions of the Star Wars Prequels.

    LOTR is 3x the length of The Hobbit but the trilogies runtimes are only about 90 minutes different, there's no respectable way to make a 200 page book into almost 8 hours of screen time so they shat all over it.
