Re: LUX GOURMET BURGERS

Re: Rising prices

anywhere charging over €12 for house wine is taking the P**s...

I always found Ponto to be extremely good, both price and food wise. the chicken and bacon kebab is the best there is.. no other restaurant can compete.
and sunday lunch is an absolute bargain.. but you may need to book, to get a table

I am in a RHD car as well.,.. so had to get out. them someone pulled up ...

Re: pool cover

ok no problem...

if you are struggling, I know someone who can do it. he specialises in awkward pool shapes. he did mine, as its a kidney shape and back to front, so fitting a new cover and roller the traditional way, was not an option, but he solved it with a rather clever solution...

let me know.

Re: pool cover

not sure if this is applicable to your situation or not... however, we fitted a lot of these back in the UK, and the biggest problem we encountered, when using a floating bubble or foam type cover, was the wind. the only cover that worked, was the UPVC slatted type, as that has the depth to hold its...

Re: UK registered cars for sale

OR They cant get to grips with RHD cars over here... blind spots etc.. and again, cant be bothered driving back OR They get the shoc...
