Their site has changed now so the uk vat is taken off and the Irish vat is put on so you see the exact price you are going to be charged ( this was done before but it was shown properly or easily or something that i can't think of the word for ) . I have noticed lettle to no difference between now and last year . Latest purchase was an Amazon Fire HD 8 , arrived within the week , no extra charges no dealing with couriers or customs .

Fair enough the laws are ****e and need to be changed, but if they laws are there they need to be enforced for everyone until they are. A young lad was shut down in Mungret recently in his rig, if he is to be shut down then hook & ladder should be shut down. If hook and ladder are that concerned go and get permission from the HSE to park up on site and offer free drinks to hse staff only And ill say it once more before someone jumps down my throat. yes the laws are ****e.

I wholeheartedly agree that laws should be enforced evenly, however giving stuff away doesn't require a licence for trading as no trade has taken place.
but the Council claimed it had evidence they had been trading. On February 15th, a representative of Hook & Ladder received an email from a council official which stated, “if you are giving out free coffees/teas etc to all customers then you are not in breach of the Casual Trading Act, and the Council will not be pursuing you under this legislation”.

The reason being that water pockets are created under the surface and when they evaporate then evaporate and the surface can crack creating potholes on the newer surface. Now, I've not been out there(outside my 5kms) so don't know what stage they're at. If still digging holes and whatnot then ignore what I said as only applies to surfacing.
