    Sort of, but not really. I've nothin to do with IADT - I teach in TU Dublin and the courses I'm involved in don't have portfolio-based submissions. Did some teaching in NCAD for a bit but it was on a photography course. For what's it's worth, I thought Egg's kids film was great. Really...

    Update: garage said they can fit a generic one on Wednesday so looks like we are getting our car back. By the way, I don't think it's ALL catalytic converters that are getting robbed. We have a pre-2010 Toyota hybrid and they are the ones getting ripped off left right and centre. Not sure if...

    Some pricks stole the catalytic converter from our car the other night. Apparently there is some weird metal in it which is worth lots of money. Will take until MAY to replace it.

    Sure. The cycling infrastructure is awful. Which makes it potentially dangerous to just cycle down the road in a lot of cases. Which is why I'm baffled as to why people would decide not to wear helmets. Surely all the more reason to do so. We shouldn't have to do this... I do get that. But given...

    Individual anecdotal evidence too but I was walking down James Street a year or two ago and a woman in front of me got her wheel stuck in the Luas track, came off the bike, and smacked her head off the ground. She was wearing a helmet but if she hadn't been it seems obvious she could have been...

    I try to use cash to I can keep track of how much I'm spending. Take out a chunk on a Friday and stick in the wallet. If I've run out by Tuesday then I need to stop spending money.

    Fair enough. I'm being a curmudgeon and good to hear it helps small/local record shops. I went in anyway and bought Young Americans (only 70s Bowie album I don't have on vinyl) for 16.99 so happy enough.

    I don't think so ...... but I could be wrong. Idiot is possibly a year or two older than me so I would have thought I would have known him but ... who knows. I got knocked down outside the school too. But not dead knocked down obviously. Minor complaint so back on topic.

    Ronda is a fabulous place. However if there is an English ex-army type still there who runs hot air balloon trips please punch him in the face for me.

    I agree. I disagree with huge amounts of stuff I see posted on social media. Except this of course.

    Yes, but surely this just redistributes a lot of the mud into your garden or on to your porch, or even the street outside, meanwhile leaving the entire area a bit of a damp, soggy mess?

    29.99 is scandalous but I still splashed out on it. The vinyl sounds great though.
