    random question, anyone know how much a double bed would cost? nothing big and fancy to sleep in for years just...a bed lol am moving and the place I'm moving to has two single beds in what will be my room, and well the hell with that lol


    You'll get a base for next to nothing. A mattress will cost you anything from €150-€1000

    Doing a rotation in emergency medicine at the moment so don't unspoil if you're easily squeamish.

    I think the tiredness has finally begun to get to me a bit, my stomach's not as strong as it usually is. But only in a weird way,
    removing a nail that's gone all the way through a man's foot
    , and I'm fine. Likewise for
    kid attacked by dog or guy who caught his finger in a motorbike wheel and has had the nail and tip ripped to shreds
    .

    But eat a spoonful of yoghurt with a lumpy bit in it and I feel that if I don't spit it out, I'm going to get sick. :(

    Sense, this makes very little. :/

    You sound just like my son. Obviously, he's not doing a medical rotation, but apart from that bit, he's just like you:p

    I wouldn't be so sure about how great UPC are... Been having serious problems with the internet in my apartment and yet the eircom at home is working perfectly...
    My boyfriend has UPC in his house and the only time he had a problem is when he didn't pay his bill on time and which was his own fault.

    The only other problem he had was when his UPC box broke and it took a couple of weeks to be fixed, mainly cause my boyfriend and his housemate work five days a week, so they had to wait for a day when one of them would be at home for UPC to come and fix the box.

    tried it but they're big wooden frames not flat beds that sit flush next to each other, so there'd be a big divide in the middle, although I do only tend to sleep on either the far left or right of my own bed so it'd do for a short while I guess.

    rang the landlord and let her know, she wants to put the deposit as the last months rent, which means I can stay here till the end of April, can I do anything about that? if I wanted the deposit back, the house is spotless like

    To be fair there's alot of people that use their children for sh*tty reasons.

    I was working somewhere came in, in the evening to find one of the jewellery counters empty and broken. Earlier that day there was a guy with a baby in a buggy that managed to rob thousands of euro worth of jewellery because he used is child as cover and a way to hide all that jewellery without getting caught. Also seen grown 'adults' making there children shoplift. I wouldn't put it past anyone to use there children to smuggle stuff.

    My sister used to work in an office in Dublin city centre that had smoked glass windows, so they could see out, but nobody could see in. Every day at 10.30/11, the local methadone clinic spewed out its patients, and the entire office would be treated to the sight of the mothers digging inside their babies nappies for the methadone jellies they had hidden, to sell or swap for hard drugs. Very sad, and upsetting to think that any childs life would start out that way.


    Krudler, I had two single beds bolted together to make a superhuge double, t'was epic!! I got a mattress topper so I didn't feel the seam between the two mattress's at all.

    She can't really do that. Have you told her you'd rather get it back I stead?

    You should be able to pick up a crappy bed for €200.

    Thirty-fcuking-eight.

    The other story off the top of my head was when he wanted to be shown how to use the internet, so I was explaining to him how to use a mouse and the click/double-click thing. I gently reminded him to doubleclick to open the browser and he yanked the computer off the table then slammed the door so hard behind him that it broke a mirror. That was about ten years ago, but still.

    well my rent gets taken on the 1st (direct debit) but the place I'm moving into theirs is paid on the 7th, so I said if I moved on/by the 7th of april she could take a weeks rent out of it, seemed fair I thought, thats still 3 weeks notice and a months rent to her. I dont really want to stay here til the end of next month, thats still 6 weeks away like.

    she can't keep your deposit if you leave the house in an acceptable manner,she has to give it back to you,my sister and her friends had a similar problem when they were moving out,they told the landlord they'd be getting onto threshold I think there called and they gave it back fairly quick :D

    Nearly, but my eyes aren't quite so moony and my cheekbones are less defined.

    Maybe we're the anti-Corrs, there are three slightly loopy brothers and one long-suffering sister in my family.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,842 ✭✭✭shinikins


    Mattress toppers are great, they can turn an uncomfortable bed into a really nice one. They can be expensive though, if you go for the really plush one's. Head on over to Homestore and More and get one for less than €50!!

    Why don't you pay your last rent by DD as you normally do, and lodge the weeks rent into the bank yourself, that way your landlord will give you all the deposit back as she is supposed to.

    even if I dont give the full months notice? from today to the 1st is only 13 days

    Do you have a contract? Cancel the DD and give her one weeks rent. She might be a bitch tho and not give your deposit back. Sounds like she doesn't have it.

    Tbh cupcakes are wasted on kids, if you do get them for kids just buy some from a bakery or something and put them on plates for them to grab, no point paying for custom decorated/baked ones just for kids, they just eat the icing off! I love good cupcakes, but for adults who appreciate them, kids'll eat anything!

    thats what I was thinking, I think she spent it and just doesnt want to give it back as its coming out of her pocket.

    It's a real tricky one. You need to cancel the dd now anyway. No way she's gonna get an extra month from you.

    ah yeah thats a given , its not a major loss to me to stay here for free for another month, just I'd rather get out of here and all that, least I have an extra 700 bucks in my bank account regardless. Ideally what I'd like to do is cancel the DD, pay her a weeks rent into the bank and then leave on the 7th, will sort something out.

    Ours is constantly acting up. Always turning off for no reason or being exceptionally slow after being fine for ages. It's quite annoying.

    And I live in the centre of Dublin so it has nothing to do with location

    It's a horrible story. So cold.

    One of my friends from working in Edinburgh was on tv during an ad break earlier. I got such a fright when I glanced up at the tv and saw him sitting there next to the giant M&M guys!

    Sorry, wasn't thinking of what date it was today!! Just pay her the extra week, she's not entitled to keep your deposit except if she needs to retain some of it for damage.

    nope, no damage, the oven needs a clean but aside from that the place is fine, I'll clean and stuff before I got anyway, the only thing wrong with the place is one of the taps in the ensuite doesnt work but thats been like that day one, she never bothered to fix it.

    She hasn't a leg to stand on then Krudler. My BF was living with some friends when we first met, they moved out of the house they were living in, and the landlord tried to keep their deposit because "the microwave was dirty"! I happened to drop over to the house when the landlord was chatting to the boys, and mentioned to him that keeping a deposit or part of, was illegal and the boys would be more than entitled to lodge a complaint with PRTB and I've never seen money handed over so quickly!!
