    To sleep or not to sleep, that is the question.
    Wanna watch Mayweather v Mosley and my only option is tonight, but I have to be up for 9 in the morning so I'm considering going to sleep now and waking up at 3 and go back asleep after, but there's the chance that I won't wake up or just stay up, decisions, decisions.

    I got "Birdeye (Devil) Chillies", can't notice much difference between them and jalapenos though. Online ordering is great for throwing these random things on

    We stayed around the ground ontill about midnight,then went into oneills we were the last people to leave there at around 2am.We then hit a club ontill about 5am and then out to the airport.

    When you lose a big game it always helps to be with sound lads who will have a good time regardless.

    Have any of you's seen the new ad for Paddy Powers?? A load of lads playing football blindfolded and there's a bell in the ball so they can hear where it is. The ball runs out of play and a cat runs on the pitch, with a bell on his collar. One of the players runs over and boots the cat up a tree!!!:pac:

    Ticketmaster or the FAI. I know you can apply in advance for tickets from the FAI by putting yourself on a list as I did it before

    TicketMaster don't seem to have them.

    I wouldnt be confident of any going onsale because only 18,000 at the RDS.

    About 25,000 - 30,000 blockbockers who are forced to take the tickets or else they are kicked off the list.

    30,000 into 18,000 doest go! so not sure what happening.

    ugh my laptop is pissing me off

    windows is telling me I should consider replacing my battery and firefox as usual is freezing all the time (remember the days when firefox was actually good, god damn i miss those days)

    how much is a battery for a Dell XPS M1530

    looks like some of my bet winnings are down the drain already (didnt last a day)

    I have seen unofficial ones for between $60-$80 not including shipping.

    I would guess if you call Dell Ireland it will be closer to €100.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,640 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    ugh smart headshot didnt check dell.ie first.
    Its 130 incl shipping.

    When it comes to batteries i would never buy off ebay, just to dodgy when it comes to that stuff.

    Dell are pretty poor for laptops from what I've heard. I've Acer myself, cheap but does the job.

    I have had one Dell desktop and three laptops and never any major problems. Different strokes and all, some people prefer a custom made machine as opposed to one off the shelf.

    Loving the sig ScienceNerd, incredibly witty!!!:D

    Just tried to help out in a situation but obv that's not wanted or encouraged so I will leave it alone again......before I become the butt of fun around here as seems to be happening already.

    Tbh, the only words I can use are disappointed and quite frankly upset :(
    Really clouded my high opinion of this place

    Again, I only tried to help the situation but as I said in another post that doesn't seem likely at all....

    As much as I love my sig, I now feel I must change it which is kinda shi*ty in fairness
