Fitzwilliam card club and casino set to close .Girl I  know worked for Powers over Christmas for the last twenty years said they are not taking on dial a bet staff this year to cover all the Christmas race meetings .When the bookies and Casinos are cutting back its time to sit up and take notice .
The new online game killed the old game as we know it John M, the only reason any bookie shop is open these days is because they are stuck in a long lease and/or with old staff who would require big redundancy if'n they were to close. As the old staff retire and the leases expire expect to see less and less bookie shops on the high street. Not that they are still not trading profitably but they are doing it all online.

Same with shopping everyone doing online shopping or even click and collect at super value
The phone culture ruined the high street

But in John's defence I think there a dip or recession on the way

To be honest don't like the online shopping gig, especially grocery's , be afraid I'd get a stale Sliced Pan
He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because he fears.

Credit card companies say less spent on CCs in the last two months .Im going to work full time and if possible get a PAYE number next year ,all the signs of 2008 are there again but this time there is no room for the state to bail out anybody we signed up to the Fiscal Treaty which limits what we can borrow and spend so only way is more tax and big cuts

I recon Boris and the EU will put the boot in we might get another good year out of it then the Shit airconditioner interaction will put us all under pressure .Goal for next year to pay off me loans need to work full time or get a part time job .See Amazon looking to open a distribution warehouse in Ireland thats going to create a few low paid jobs and close a lot of shops .The world of work is changing we are slowly becoming Americanised you will have more than one source of income if you are a blue collar worker ."0 hour contracts so employers can avoide certain commitments seems to be very popular .

They're entitled to ascertain whether the client is fit to travel or not and whether the destination id within 30 kilos. Although I'm not aware of any provision within the regulations, NTA have also told us that we can refuse a fare on safety grounds which presumably entitles drivers to fear certain areas or travellers or immigrants or whatever. I actually had a woman in the car a few months back complaining that the taxi was going to cost her the guts of a tenner because Dublin Bus had terminated her bus service (to Ballyfermot) due to anti-social behaviour. FFS, says I... I should be charging you danger money if the buses won't go there... aah but it's happening all the time, says she...
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.
