Library books?

Mayo is really improving, isn't it?

To answer your question, no, I've no idea. If it's a really popular book, they definitely won't be happy. Most of the librarians in my local library would probably let me get away with not returning books for months but I've never tried.

Nah, Mayo is still ****e, the library is a half an hour way, by car

They'd be quite popular books tbh, most of them revision books. :P

I could have renewed them online but I went to do that today and my library card has been out of date since the 4th of June :pac:

Yeah revision books are very popular during the LC period.

You couldn't have renewed them if they were already overdue.

Wait, library cards go out of date?

I hate using the CAO website so much.

"Looks like you were idle for 30 seconds, we have logged you out due to this, please type in your massive ass cao number and password AND birthday again."

"We're sorry, you took too long to type in your password, your account is locked. Please send us a vial of your blood to unlock it."

If you have google chrome it can just remember all this stuff for you. All I have to do is click log in, same for this, facebook, twitter etc.

However it is incredibly annoying the way they log you out after about 20 seconds of being idle.

Edit: In the time it took to post this I was logged out :rolleyes:

That's crazy :eek: I think I've had the same one for almost 8 years. It would be very annoying if I had to renew it every year.

Pro tip: you don't get logged out for being idle on mobile :pac:

It's actually normal that they renew them every year, and stick you for another tenner (or whatever it is for a school student).

Someone in there obviously likes Nim!

Another tenner? I've never had to pay anything to the library. We're supposed to pay to reserve books and have them brought in from other libraries but they never ask for the money.

Maybe it's a non-Dublin thing

Well, you'll get an offer for the highest Level 8 on your list that you qualify for (assuming you do) and a separate offer for the highest Level 6 / 7 off *that* list that you apply for, so you'll still have that choice in August.

That's fairly much the only choice you'll have in terms of CAO after the Change of Mind closes tomorrow, but you will have that one.

Ka_yl_ei_gh

I've no level 6's or level 7's :pac:
