    I know it's been said more than once, and not only by me, but... A CURSE ON PEOPLE WHO AREN'T PUNCTUAL AND DON'T EVEN TRY TO MAKE AN EFFORT TO BE SO. Especially after they pick the time in the first place.

    Took me a second to realise you meant the store and not the country.

    Why wouldnt 100mb of another provider be enough?
    I think a good chunk of people who pay Virgin for 240 or 360mb dont get more than 100mb because of their network card being just that, 100mb.

    You're probably correct. Vodafone is offering 100mb at €25pm/€300 per year, Eir is offering 100mb for €30 pm/€360 per year, versus €50 pm/€600 per year with Virgin for 240mb. If it is too slow, I could change back to Virgin and get a much better deal as a new customer. Seeing as Virgin is going to screw me over for the next month anyway, I might as well give a 100mb alternative supplier a try and see if it's sufficient (I can cancel in the first 14 days, apparently).

    According to that Switcher article:'Fastest Broadband Explained. What is fast broadband? Fast broadband would generally be considered to be a reliable broadband connection with speeds at or above 30Mbps. This is also the minimum target speed as set out by the National Broadband Plan.'

    In case you're stuck again, go to a public library - my local one, for instance, lets you print for 30c a page - expensive enough, but still cheaper than what you had to pay.

    I’m annoyed that I can’t log in to my usual boards account and I have no idea why. I’m pretty sure I wasn’t banned, seems to be some kind of technical glitch where the system gets caught in a loop every time I try to log in.

    It was a fairly new account though and I didn’t like the username I chose, so I think I’ll just use this one...

    I can't be the only person to think that a 5pm finish time means that you're ready to leave the office at 5pm? So you start to tidy up and close stuff down at about 4.55pm. It doesn't mean that you start at 5pm and leave your wife in the pouring rain waiting for you for 5-10 minutes does it?

    Depends which side of the table you are.

    If you're the worker you're paid 9-5 and off premises by 5.

    if your the boss, you're to work till 5, then off premises.

    You'll only find out by doing it your way......once, as you'll find out pretty quick.

    Couples having little arguments or snapping at each other in other people’s company. Nobody want to hear this! Have some self-control, people!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 632 ✭✭✭Sorry about that


    Slightly annoyed that Eldon Maxbank is gone. Loved his posts, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not.

    The writers on Fair City trying to appear woke when writing for the young cast. The other day one of the teens had an apocalyptic melter because someone deleted an app on her phone. Like a normal person would just redownload the app and log in again. There’s also various cringe references to Snapchat streaks and Pokemon. Clearly written by dinosaurs who have never used an app.

    Scarleh for myself outing myself for watching this ****e.

    Went to the gym, then got a horrible pain in my stomach. Working out was such a struggle, although I got a decent amount done considering.

    I was talking to an almost 16 y.o. today: she had never heard of King Kong. Seriously, what are they teaching kids these days?
