Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

Soon to be defunct in what is a complete waste of tax payers money and a pointless exercise where CEO, Padraig McManus is trying to justify his abnormal 750k annual salary.
If you knew what you were talking about you would realise that ESB never in its history got a penny / cent of taxpayers money as it raised all its own financial requirements and was a net contributor to the state coffers by way of Tax, Rates and Dividend, and was a major contributor to employment in Bord na Mona in the midlands , when there were next to no jobs available during 60's and 70's.0 -

I was at a closed down train station last week and found the below.
That brings back memories of JMOB home bread deliveries by Gerry the Baker and then his son who took over the round when his dad retired.
Deliveries Tuesday - Saturday and bread left on the doorstep except on Saturdays when the bill was paid0 -

i recognise the contribution they made in terms of employment but im not on about the 60s or 70s but the pointless re branding exercise and the crazy salary their ceo is on so get off your high horse. anyhow this site is for old brands. if you want to discuss esb fair enough im sure there is a thread somewhere on boards for that but for now we'll talk old logos.0 -

I remember the last Kimberley box in that photo.
About the ESB/Electric Ireland rebrand, they were required to rebrand by the CER as a condition of allowing them to set their own prices. I agree it's pointless, and to be honest they probably didn't want to do it themselves.0 -
