Any white van men on here?

Do all "normal" vans have a height under 2metres?

Some of the "bigger" vans are under 2 metres (transits, transporters etc)... You'd want to check it first though...You'll see some of those vans in underground car parks. The higher roof models like Sprinters, Crafters, Luton Box vans are a good bit bigger.

Even with the Transits you'd need to check, because they've got SWB which is shorter than the LWB by nearly two foot.

What are the in between rounds changes like in fantasy leagues other than the Irish times one? Myself and a few mates have always done the times one for a casual laugh but every one of us has ended up with more players dropped/injured than there are trades available this year after round 1...

Discriminating against African American van men.

You have to switch to the desktop site. Buttons down the bottom of the mobile one.

Sadly you can't ignore yourself though...

The Denver Broncos have just traded for Joe Flacco.

Which now means that they have two ****ty Quarterbacks on the roster for a combined salary of just under $50m. Unbelievable.

Between the Declan Rice debacle and John Delaney in general, I can't understand why anyone in Ireland follows soccer.

It's very good. It's no Bunsen. Wow Burger is not good.

It's a spin off of a republic of telly skit, supposed to be an exaggeration of a typical Irish family in the 80s.

But like republic of telly, and most RTE comedy stuff, it's absolutely sh1te.

CatFromHue

The sketches on Republic of Telly were good, I enjoyed them.

The first series was grand. Not brilliant, not terrible, had a few laughs, and justified them getting a series.

The second series wasn't good though and had no laughs from what I remember. They should have ended it then but it's somehow made it to series 4.

If you look at the television forum on here though you can see no one is talking about it, not even to call it bad. So I can't imagine the viewer numbers are any good at all.

Bunsen is ok-good. It's got a decent burger, not top notch, but decent - but it's customer policy of not accepting reservations means they can go **** themselves. I walk in, be told to **** off for 40 minutes while a table clears, after having called 40 minutes earlier and being told no I can't reserve a table? I get why they do it, but my time is more important than their money, so they can go and ****e.

No problem there, man.

The conference dinner I'm going to in a few weeks is on in the Generator. I was baffled when I read that. The conference is in UCD. Who books a hostel for a conference dinner?

It’s a very cheap venue

I get Bridget and Eamon more than I get Bunsen. The burger is bang average, like something you’d get on a chip van in the RDS, the menu choice is similar too. The BS about making people queue, even when there are clearly empty tables inside, emperors new clothes.

thomond2006

I definitely wouldn't consider Bunsen something you'd get from a chipper van. That title goes to Five Guys. Completely overpriced rubbish.

I can’t believe you went to a real Bunsen!

Yeah I'm with you on this one. Went a while back and it was grand. I've genuinely had nicer burgers from chip vans in years gone by. Couldn't understand what all the fuss was about.

arsebiscuits1

There is loads of places in Dublin to get a nice Burger.

Bunsen would personally be my favourite

Wowburger is good not great.

The Counter is one of the best in my opinion also. Brilliant burgers in there.

Eddie Rockets is also one I always have a soft spot for

Five Guys is home to the most awful ****e. Seriously overpriced for the Burger you get and a fiver for a handful of truly awful chips.

Another soulless American corporation trying to shoehorn out some Irish owned businesses. I hope they don't last.
