    Good Dublin pub to bring an American to

    Meeting an old workmate (and his husband) in town for a pint the night before Paddy's day. Was thinking The Oval, cos it's near where my bus arrives/departs and serves adequate food. Any other suggestions?

    Out out in Belfast

    Gonna be out in Belfast on Sat night. What I'd really like is to go dancing someplace where the music is good and the dancefloor will be full before midnight and they won't turn me away for being ancient (or any other reason, really) All the tripadvisor reviews of Belfast nightclubs are...

    Thread for songs you used to like, but in hindsight realise they're not very good

    Was trawling through 90s music with the kids while driving the other day, and realised that Parklife wasn't very good after all. Nothing really much to it, like - just some geezer rabbiting on, and a fairly generic britpop chorus. Girls and Boys is similar - I'd probably dance to it if it was in...

    Illness benefit in work

    I'm at the age when a few people in my circle have had to deal with long-term illness, and as as result I've gotten nervous and am campaigning to get better long-term illness cover in work ATM Irish staff get 9 days sick leave, then you're on social welfare. The yanks, by contrast, get 66% of...

    A great bunch of lads

    I always thought "The Chinese - a great bunch of lads" was a thumped thing, but then I heard someone my age saying it down my local. And then I said it at home and the kids had never heard it before. Is it some kind of middle-aged Irish man meme?

    Tenor guitars?

    My ukulele has kinda become my go-to instrument for jamming and open mics. It sounds lovely when you play it quietly, but for livelier songs when you're strumming it hard it's not so pleasant. For example Was thinking of maybe getting a tenor guitar and tuning it like a uke. Anyone any...

    How do small record labels work these days?

    ... and how do they make any money? For example KEELEY (who maybe used to post here?) is on Dimple Discs in London, with only 300-odd monthly listeners on Spotify. She's getting some decent support slots in Dublin, and a bit of press, which I guess is the label's doing, but how on earth are...
