    I've added a poll to the thread, easier to complete the poll than add 1 word answers.

    From ECI facebook page -

    This Thursday, 2nd July, Minister O’Sullivan will host a public forum on behalf of the Labour Party on the issue of early years education and childcare. It will take place from 6.30-9pm at Pery's Best Western Hotel, Glentworth Street, Limerick and we encourage all our members who are available to attend and make your voice heard.
    Tánaiste Joan Burton, Professor Noirín Hayes, TCD and Ciairín De Buis, Director Start Strong will also be participating. Please confirm attendance in advance by emailing jan.osullivan@oir.ie.

    Childcare is certainly an issue for all parents but for single parents the burden of childcare is double - perhaps this forum would be worth a look in ... let them hear first hand what it's like to have a choice of affordable accessible childcare in Limerick.

    Hopefully never, it stems back to the founding of boards as a gaming forum.

    I've never noticed it before to be honest. What is the meaning/significance of it?

    It seems like a genuine grievance here but I'm afraid I don't know enough to offer my full support:o

    Boards was originally setup as a quake forum and polls used to be about PCs or macs or whatever, a few folks with Atari Jaguars used to feel left out so special dispensation was given, it had stayed on as a running joke since
