I use Parcel Motel frequently enough

You can use whatever means necessary to get the parcel to their Dublin or N.Ireland sorting office. They'll then deliver the parcel to the dropbox linked to the PMID and notify the account holder of the delivery

Cheers

Al Capwned

Just make sure that they put the PMID in the first line of the address.

i.e

Niallo27
PMxxxx
Parcel Motel,
Unit 5 Mygan Park
Jamestown Road
Finglas East
Dublin 11.

It's then re-directed to your selected location for you to collect - I use it fairly regularly, it's a brilliant service.

Dempsey

Its absolutely brilliant for getting around UK only delivery services or taking advantage of free UK deliveries.

I got parcel through PM this morning, it was from a company that dont deliver to Ireland. Expecting 2 more deliveries using it before the week is out.

I would assume very few people reading this will remember Luke Kelly's death 30 years ago today. It's a vague one for me!

Anyway, I love this tribute to him.

Lionel Messi insured both his legs for €550m. According to reports, Messi is paying around 300 to 400 thousand Euros every year for this

Did he go with Layla Healthcare?

His missus must be thinking....

They don't get paid per week. They also only play 16 regular season games a season.

Anyone interested in The Walking Dead, season 4, Part 2 starts tonight on Fox.

The premier aired last night in America.

Yup. I have this, the last two episodes of Oz and the last episode of Arrow season one to finish. Yay.

Get back in the house, Carl.

Season 4 hasn't really gripped me. I haven't watched the mid season finale yet but after seeing the promo posters I knew what was going to happen.

If they had done that at the end of season 3 it would have worked but now it's just like they are saying 'yeah we f*cked up the last season so let's do it over.'

Apparently AMC have picked up Preacher which should be amazing if the don't neuter it.

True Detective from HBO is very good. Harrelson and McConaughey are on top form in it.

I thought it was just me, I haven't been arsed with season 4 either and it's been tough to put the finger on why, I still havent seen the last two episodes from before the break.

True Detective is amazing as googled eyes says, two stunning performances from Woody and McConaughey

There is just no structure or coherence to the season. I love when shows don't spoonfeed stuff to the audience but TWD has gone so far in the other direction that it's hard to follow.

Rick's arc is a perfect example...

one episode he is a pacifist and doesn't want Karl using weapons..then he does a complete 180 for no reason.

I am also sick of

The Governor.

Ya, there was a few episodes that the 2nd part of Series 3 didnt need and they could have ended the middle part of series 4 as the end of Series 3.

I'll still watch it though, being watching it since it was on RTE. :pac:

Turtyturd

I didn't mind season 3 until the final episode...and with episode 6 and 7 of season 4 I just completely lost interest. I will still watch though...just to make comparisons to the comic.

Have to say I still love The Walking Dead yea it's a bit up and down but on the most part I still find it gripping.

Team shape compared :P

Useless fact of the day:

After scoring his 1st penalty in the 7th minute last night, Ronaldo has now scored in every single minute of a match.

For a guy wearing no 7 to have the 7th minute as the last one to scratch of the bingo ticket is a bit weird...
