    No, once you download it, the downloaded copy is yours for as long as you keep it.

    Download the PDF and keep it somewhere handy i.e. local machine, or better again, upload to your Google Drive / OneDrive account for use while travelling

    It is but check out Bolivia (i absolutely loved the place). The Salt Flats are breathtakingly beautiful.

    As per hotukdeals, you can add as many books as you want at once, although reading the Ireland one now, not sure how accurate the information is in it.

    Apparently the Irish Independent is a right leaning newspaper? lol what????

    I picked Switzerland myself. Was always a bit out of my price range but I’ve decided to take the plunge next summer. Not spending much since lockdown and managing to save a bit even on lower income. Something to focus the mind on for the next 3 weeks.

    Anyone using PlayBooks like me for epub file or anyone short on storage might find this useful

    https://www.onlineconverter.com/compress-epub

    Compressed one epub for me by c.90%

    I think a lot of people would agree with that. Says leaning not full blown.

    Really? How so, I would have thought the opposite? Not disputing it, just curious by the way.

    There's a full blown politics forum on this site. This is bargain alerts.

    Im no expert now either but I would think it isn't an unfair categorisation. Look at its history on Wikipedia, its owned by denis o brien and some of its contributers have very heavy right leaning views.

    What are people using to read the epub files?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭PCeeeee


    Is the Irish one worth getting for an Irish person, will it tell me anything I don't know?

    i got the irish one - the last one i had was over 15 years old. mainly for updated guidance on attractions, family outings, restaurants pubs etc. i reckon it'll be staycation this year, if we're allowed travel at all....

    it keeps saying enter valid postcode/ZIP code


    I tried Eircode, with spaces, without spaces etc, any ideas?

    cheers

    My details are there from the previous order, I put in my Eircode without spaces. I just ordered another book and it didn't complain about the postcode, it isn't a mandatory field for me though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭PCeeeee


    Thanks Frank. Got one.

    As it's a ebook and free, you can make up any address/post code and it will work fine.
