    Not sure if this is the right thread.

    I am looking to to get a 'hideaway' home office desk. Saw a few on Amazon but won't deliver to Ireland.

    Looking to conceal an Apple Mac for use during the day.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks for that.

    I am actually looking for something a bit larger, and something that would store a pc, basically hiding it away when not it use, keeping kids away.

    Ideally deliver direct. Are you suggesting Amazon or something similar?

    addresspal will deliver directly to your home for a calculated fee,
    if you can find the estimated weight and size of the delivery, addresspal have a price list on there website,
    be sure to use the home delivery uk address and not the post office address when using the service for the desired results.

    Was looking for some suggestions/ideas of hideaway office desks that might be from an Irish based company. If I cannot find something I am prepared to use Amazon and at least now I have the info to have it delivered.

    AddressPal kept my car on the road during the countries full lockdown, I'm sure everyone has a story but I've never felt such relief;
    The battery in my car decided to stop holding charge three weeks in to full restrictions around the country; and I'm a skilled essential worker in the medical industry.

    I couldn't find anywhere in Ireland to provide a replacement car battery in Ireland and there wouldn't be anyone else on the road to take the other end of my jump leads to get me started when the battery deteriorated slightly further.

    Thankfully i managed to purchase a Bosch S5 car battery from a supplier in London on Amazon; shipping via AddressPal it arrived within a week and i fitted it myself;
    I'd have given anything at the time to keep my car on the road and my self isolated as much as possible; it was 17.5kg and only cost me €7.50 shipping to my local post office,

    Brought my old battery to the recycle centre when restrictions eased.
