    A tracker mortgage is similar to a standard variable rate mortgage, with one main difference - it 'tracks' the European Central Bank (ECB) rates. The benefit is that it commits the lender to keeping their 'margin' (the markup they charge on top of the wholesale rate) under a certain level. Tracker mortgages are not available in Ireland at present.

    The hatton part of my username was caused by me punching my friend in the face in coppers when I saw him cheating on his pregnant girlfriend.

    I deliberately delay George R.R Martin from finishing his A Song of Ice and Fire series by calling him on the phone, pretending to be close friends or relatives of his and engaging him in long, meandering conversations.
    I'll usually finish by giving him a suggestion for something he can change in the TV series to delay and distract him even more.

    WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

    I live in an one off house in the countryside and not in house type b in some celtic era housing estate.
    In a few years time,when my kids are reared,I fully expect to leave this mortal coil and I don't care whether 'tis nobler in the mind or not.
    I doubt that conscience will make a coward of me.

    I think that nothing really matters in the long run.-

    "And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
    The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
    Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
    And then is heard no more. It is a tale
    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
    Signifying nothing".

    In case the end doesn't live up to the rest of it. This way, I can never be disappointed by the end if he doesn't finish it. :pac:

    "Oh by the way George, I think you need more elaborate descriptions of lavish feasts in the books. Maybe have the whole next novel can be all about one feast, told from the points-of-view of those organising, making, and eating it. You should devote 100 pages just to describing the food. The prologue can be from the point-of-view of a boar before it's slaughtered for the feast."

    I'm not of this planet you all call 'Earth'. Alpha Centauri is lovely in the summertime, but I haven't been back there for quite a while.

    When I read feast descriptions I always wanna drink red wine and eat chicken legs. So if he'd leave those out a bit, it's probably healthier...

    I drove for over 5 years with no tax on my car.
    Just got lazy & the longer it went on the less I worried about it.
    Work commute, busy national route door to door, too busy for guards to mount checkpoints.

    Even thought my weighing scale is probably accurate, I always subtract two pounds from whatever reading I get. Three if I am having a bad day.

    Dublin has grown on me and now I freak out when I think how quickly time has passed and very soon I will have to move again. :(

    I have just learned that a very close family member has been talking sh1t about me to various random people over the last number of years :eek::mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 684 ✭✭✭CL7


    I cried my eyes out at the start of UP. I was inconsolable. I rarely watch sad movies/shows with my fiance because they don't affect her much while I cry like a little girl.

    I know all procrastinators aren't afraid of doing the thing in question, they just subconsciously don't want to do it. Other gems of pop psychology to follow!

    Just imagine how the people, who are believing this sh1t, are going to feel like the most gullible fools when the truth comes out. You'll probably feel sorry for them.

    I joined Plenty of Fish the other week because I'm dissatisfied with my current partner, but don't want to dump him. Keeping options open....

    I deleted the profile after 24 hours - you're not allowed to delete it any sooner.

    Think I'm happier just dissatisfied.

    I hate myself.

    I don't know what to do.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭grindle


    I walk across pedestrian crossings at a snail's pace because I presume all drivers would splash me in the rain, given the chance.
    Don't bother beeping at me!
    Every beep is like a round of applause, savoured and committed to memory.

    I keep hoping that my husband will grow out of his ps3 games.
    He's 29 now

    My 45 year old mother still plays playstation games. In the past 2 weeks she has completed Dead Space 1 and is now onto Dead Space 2. However, she's fairly shíte at them all.


    I'm from Kerry and hate football...

    Im from Kilkenny and hate hurling.

    Im from Kilkenny and prefer Waterford.
