    Whiskey down on top of beer is usually a bad thing the next day

    I was unusually tame for a Friday night. Wide awake before 6am on a Saturday morning with no hangover. This is a strange place for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Never again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭droidman123

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Was at chentenham at the weekend. They know how to charge for pints there £4:90. On the plus side, the new crescent walkway overlooking the parade ring is a great addition. Hats off to whoever the architect was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭droidman123


    I was just about to post that venetia was a bit slow out of the starting blocks even this early in the season and boom....in goes a 12/1 winner!

    Depends where you are and what you're using. If it's mobile broadband it's good, you can get better. If it's fixed line broadband and you're in a town/city it's fairly poor, if you're in the countryside it's decent enough.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,008 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman

    Get onto them via the Talk To forum on here and they should sort you out, you can get more than 10 times that speed in Clare


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Can they just increase it??


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,008 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    Probably, depending on your line I'd be surprised if you were at teh fastest yo ucould be at

    Check this site to see what's your best option https://switcher.ie/broadband/speed-test/journey/


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,008 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    This page might be handier http://business.digiweb.ie/linechecker/

    If you don't have a land line you might have number on your bill starting with 8881, you can use that as the line to enter to check the speed.

    Yes,they send you out a handle,just stick it in the side of your router and wind like crazy for about 15 mins
