    Sharing numbers would be a good idea, she needs support and maybe learn a way to cope with the horror.

    Makes you wonder do the Amish folks have the right idea, dig a bit out in the fields, dander out to check on the livestock, catch a bit of sun, knit an aul jumper, play some piano, not a smartphone in sight.

    Keeping physically busy, creating, doing stuff is all vitality important for children. Nature walks are a superb idea, simple, costs nothing.

    Well that's nuts - 44 years living and paying taxes here and it's almost 2k for an irish passport!
    the fact anyone living abroad on the granny rule can get one for 170e is crazy.

    Seems fair enough to me. If it's worth it, then that's a fair price.

    You can't beat an ould amnesty! Just think of all the nutters who could end up getting an Irish passport. Apart from all our homegrown ones!

    An Irish passport is one of the most valuable in the world for travel. Sometimes valuable things cost money.

    I always remember this guy asking me in the library for a form to apply to become an Irish citizen. I checked up on this and the form has as many pages as Joe’s buke and way more complex. I tried to explain we didn’t even have enough print resources that day.., He said he couldn’t understand me as he didn’t really speak English. I simply wrote down the website address for the form. English fluency is a basic requirement.
