The man hole was the problem its one of those old type grid ones and meal etc was going down through it, was able to use power hose from parlour too to try and flush it. no, no bay wipes or anything like that go down toilet here . Had a lad working here a few years ago and he put blue towels down workers toilet,there was plenty of bog roll, ffs blocked everything up, i told him the next time he put blue towels in toilet he would have to fix it himself

Pity I didn't think of buying a place in Galway city for youngest who is in NUIG which would be a lot cheaper than properties here.
OH, I did think of it but didn't have the available reddies :rolleyes:

That's because she has moved to a ********. Dublin and Galway the two best cities to live in in Ireland, unfortunately you pay for them.

Youngest informed me last week that the rent on the house that they have in Galway will be going up by €200 a month from Sept - divided by 4.

Other than hearing about it on Saturday night in the local, seeing it here, on Facebook/Twitter and on the news this evening haven't heard any more.
Didn't even see it on Agriland and I was surprised.

Sure it was a chiropractor you were at? Was it a little extra extensive?

Ingrown toenail? I've been that soldier. On both of my big toes. I eventually got the sides bits that were cutting in surgically removed. Great relief. Never bothered me after that.

Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine, under the belief that these disorders affect general health via the nervous system

A chiropodist was originally a hand and foot doctor, but in many parts of the world today chiropodist is used instead of podiatrist to designate a foot doctor.

if ya went to a chiropractor and showed him your big toe he'd give you the boot

Our rent for the house has gone up 200 p.m. in Dublin.
Job gone last Friday - out of the blue.

Guy I work with, married with a 3 yo child, got a months warning from his landlord that the rent on their 1 bed apartment in Swords was going up by €200 a month

Sorry to hear that, hope things look up for ya soon.

If it was me I'd get out of Dublin, don't know how people make ends meet there with the cost of everything. Flipping hell, 200 per month is an extra €2400 per year increase, who can sustain that?

We have a house rented out here, changing tenants during July and were increasing rent by €100 a month which seemed to be no bother. Didn't have to advertise or anything, rentals are scarse.
Now, it's the first increase in five years and since then the property tax has come in and with the poor structure of the water charge I have to cover the option of me as landlord gets saddled with the charge after tenants leave.
Hate being a landlord.
