not sure about the pallets. I always assumed at smaller bonfires it was local construction companies or whatever that were into it that would give them cast offs or whatever and people would dump wood but the craighill one looks like a big set up so not sure if they pay for them or if they are donated or nicked.
Not much choice in the East. Dislike both front runners. Thinking of spoiling it. (Even though I know it is stupid)

I didn't follow that much but did the bedroom tax happen in NI?Colum’s promised to sort out NI once himself and their “sister party “ take office…
‘Grave concerns’ over cut to social housing starts in NI
Housing bodies in Northern Ireland have outlined their “grave concerns” that the Department for Communities will only be able to fund up to 400 new social home starts in 2024-25.www.insidehousing.co.uk
I find it strange that NIHE only take account of the claimants money and not look at non-dependants in the house, I know a few still living at home earning high tax bracket money but as their folks are on benefits the rent is covered by NIHE, these are NIHE house stock too. Another case where I'm living and heard need 200+ points (my friend had 140 and had to move away) a man that lived alone died and the adult daughter moved in jumping the queue, NIHE house stock again, both situations is where the parents/previous person been in the house since the 80's, some odd rule from back then?
decided to search - if they are the bottom one taking 1000's home a month, NIHE seek £9.90 a week? that's still pitiful but they one I know all the deeds off def have not let nihe know

There must be more to it if they’ve included him in the service?… I’m assuming the grandson must be in his twenties if she’s in her 80’s maybe he’s additional needs or somethingJust reading that report of the Belfast live regarding the funeral of Patsy Aust.
Such a sad event, whatever happened between her and the brother is just incomprehensible.
I’m not comfortable reading such glowing reports of how much they relied on each other - considering he’s been charged with her murder and it appears the grandson is now left with no one.
Patsy Aust funeral told she "relied heavily on the love" of her brother
Patsy and her brother "were a strong duo, committed to each other"www.belfastlive.co.uk

Yeah it’s used to be a regular occurrence here ( dealers still given anonymity) although it’s knees by appointment these days, death by surprise.Had it in plenty of places in the north too .. you darent have breathed
Still vividly recall one night standing in silence in a bar in my uni friends local - next thing there was the sound of marching boots and a colour party of 6 entered to give a speech and take two out in the war against drugs!
Very sobering!

I wore sandals and a t-shirt on the school run this morning. Home and wrapped in an electric blanket to warm up. Insane.

Yeah I do thanks. They want the establishment gone so vote for independents thenIt’s not? Do you not keep up with the news Norathey want the entire establishment gone.

What about if you’re a party that makes it especially appealing to the non nationals vote as a way of gaining support? It’s already skewed before the elections take place,if it’s the case a none national can vote why can’t we reserve a vote as Irish citizens north of the borderafter all the new Ireland will affect generations to come especially a united Ireland.
let’s see the “Ireland is full” lot put their money where their (massive) mouths are. We can’t vote because we’re not resident there, another product of partition. Also don’t get what’s wrong with “appealing to non nationals” but that’s another story.

I’m sure that could’ve been any family here during the troubles ,kids were sent all over the world to stay with host families, nobody even knew who they were beforehand, they just signed up and off you went, one of my friends went to New York for a couple of months, we were just talking about how it would never happen nowCompletely of topic!
It’s madness the rabbit holes you end up going down just because you can when you see something online.
This story came up of a Journalist sympathetic about Jays Mum
https://www.independent.co.uk/voice...g-club-dancing-mountains-mother-b2567939.html
Went to look into that story and unraveled several layer of madness with the Journalist family and the various kids

it was madness when you think about it.

That really is thought provoking!Should be woke this phone has a habit of changing
People only think they’re being healthy by cutting certain things from their diet , it’s completely out of our control, the instances of autoimmune conditions are spiralling, along with cancers and rare health conditions.

So many illnesses are also now being shown to be attributed to the Gut-Brain connection especially autoimmune disorders.
It’s all a really interesting topic to look into, but from proper sources not the snippets from the snake doctors peddling their products, supplements & poorly written books.
I don’t think they are grand. It’s all balls.

I’m talking about asylum seekers not being able to vote in UK local elections like they were in the south, you can vote in UK elections from different territories provided you’re a citizen of those countries.ROI is part of the British Isles and common travel area.

Surprised they couldn’t reach a verdict.

When you read these type of articles you can see why people speak out, don’t know if I’d label them far right for raising genuine points.
Its not just the south affected UK have learned the hard way but can’t claw it back.
