Re: And to all a good night.

When boards originally imploded this could have become one of the finest little sites in Ireland, but unfortunately it has turned into a petty little circle jerk of smug arseholes, albeit with one or two notable exceptions. Good luck all, I want no f...

Aldi - Is there somewhere to report price gouging?
Is there a trading standards department in Ireland, or something similar? I noticed today that Aldi are selling pawpaw ointment for £1.49 (€1.74) in the UK, but €2.99 here for the exact same item. That's just wrong.

What about something like a Royal Enfield? The Himalaya is a great yoke, and the Continental is drop-dead gorgeous.

Re: Range Rover Classic - Electric Vehicle Conversion
Nice wan, never thought of the 4 wheel drive.
Numpty question number 2:
Why do you need the 4 wheel drive if you're just using it as a local runabout?

Most lads would kill for this opportunity. Buy again, but FGS buy a less boring bike.

Love the motor btw, personally I'd look for an original engine.

Re: Ash Dieback disease
Countless amounts of healthy ash at ours, in fact I can't remember ever having seen any diseased trees. Is it only affecting certain areas? South Kerry for reference.

Fuckers driving in lanes 2 and 3 on the Naas rd, and nobody in lane 1. On the same subject, i watched a woman last week driving in lane one, nothing in front of her for at least a km. As she approached a car that was in lane 2 (grrr) she moved out to lane 2, on to lane 3, overtook the car in lane 2 ...

Re: What's the oldest car you've seen on the road lately?
I've done a bit of digging, and it turns out that there were only three vehicles in that figaro group, the Pau, the Figaro and the S-cargo. The jag based Micra was a different company, Mitsuoka, and the model is a Viewt. They're all fetching massive money now.
