Anyone in Ireland that can recommend someone who can resole AM1’s?

They are running flat but apart from that are in good condition, just need fresh soles!

Thanks in advance!

Any recommendation for mailing bags for sending clothes such as jeans, Tshirts, jackets, hoodies etc?

Thanks

So here is the situation I find myself in…

About two months ago I found out that a bar/restaurant in my town was going to be put up for lease. I reached out to the owners, we had a couple of meetings with the last meeting being one month ago which was very positive in so far as they said they would like me to take in the lease subject to having the funds available.

They were aware that I would be funding 25% myself with the remaining 75% coming from the bank. With that in mind they told me they would be advertising the property so as to have a back up should my business loan not materialise.

I secured the business loan last week and spoke with them again to discuss next steps and they told me that they have been approached with other offers and thus they had to consider these. While I was under the impression that we would move forward if I secured the financing i don’t understand their position from a business perspective, they want to be sure the next recent in the right fit.

So I now find myself in limbo with a loan I can’t draw down yet as I don’t know how things will play out over the next couple of weeks, I may get the place or it may go to someone else!?

One option I am considering is the following, in a week or two once they have met other prospective tenant’s I intend to email them outlining/reminding them of the pros/benefits to offering the bar to me that we had discussed previously to which they were positive about and what sets me apart from the other prospective tenants ( I am aware of who some of them are)I was also going to suggest that they allow me a day in the kitchen to cook for them to showcase my menu and why my concept would work.

Any advice/guidance would be appreciated. Based in the UK if that helps.

Picking up a 2020 LWB Berlingo with 110k miles tomorrow.

First time buying a van, what advice/guidance can you kind folks give me so I can get the most out of my van.

Looking for everything from maintenance tips to add-ons etc, everything welcome!

Thanks in advance 🤙🏼

Placed an order on the 14th and I enquired when they think they could send item as I’m going on hols this coming Thur 20th. Buyer read message and ignored. I followed up the next day (15th) asking if they could post or give me an update on when they could post, again it was read and no reply.

Seller has been online several times since including a few hours ago and still no reply.

I appreciate they have up to a week to post but ignoring my message is annoying me, would I be wrong to cancel the order as they refuse to communicate?

Can anyone recommend bookkeeping/accounting software with payroll functionality that would connect to POS like Sumup or Square that allow staff clock in/out.

Thanks

I have a Monzo, AIB and credit union account.

I transferred money from my AIB to my Monzo account yesterday. I then wanted to transfer some of it to my credit union account. I was blocked from doing so.

On the Monzo app it asks me to provide proof of the transfer from AIB to Monzo but won’t accept a screenshot of the transfer, I need a photo of a receipt I guess as proof but as it was a digital transfer this is not possible.

They have now frozen my account since last night, I can’t access my money. I spoke to them this morning and all they would say is that they would send my concern to the tech and or fraud account team but would not give me a timeline as to when it would be sorted out.

It’s a bit rich a digital bank asking for physical proof of a bank transfer!!

Not sure if I need help here or just a rant but I’m pissed off as currently applying go for a biz loan soon for a start up and can’t access account to prove personal funds!!

***EDIT - got it sorted and now back into my account, will keep an eye on my transactions going forward, thanks for all the replies

Will be adding wings to a menu soon, obv going with Buffalo and a few other flavours/sauces.

As is tradition celery is usually added alongside the buffalo wings however I have no need for celery outside of this specific use.

Would a few house made pickles be a good alternative as will have an abundance of them from burger garnishes!?

The flair is closest I could find, hope it’s ok!

Edit several hours after op - The people have spoken, celery it is and will be forever more, thank you good people the wing!!

This is purely hypothetical but…

There is a well known Donegal pub group called McCaffertys

In a number of towns like Carlow and Sligo they have pubs under the name “Gracies”.

With that in mind, would someone be allowed to open a pub down the street in Carlow called McCaffertys or would that be infringing on some kind of trademark(assuming that was in place)

Just to add, they do operate some pubs in Donegal
And Dublin under the name “McCaffertys”

Again purely hypothetical, just curious

So I’m in discussion to take over a bar.

It’s turnkey and in great condition and on the busiest street in the city. There is a restaurant space upstairs and a fully kitted kitchen.

My issue is how to do the menu. I intend to do a short lunch menu, soup and a sandwich type thing to cater for local office workers but alongside that I want to do a burger/taco menu too.

The issue is that I want to also use the upstairs restaurant space Wed - Sun in the evenings and offer the same menu.

How would you good folks advise on how to plan this. Should I stop serving food at the bar at 5pm to get people upstairs? Should I perhaps do a reduced menu downstairs at the bar (about a third of the restaurant menu)and finish at 5pm?

Just to add. I want to have music in the bar at night so eating a meal and live music may not mix. Also, I want young people (older teens) to be able to enjoy the food without having to sit in a bar!?

Any ideas and guidance welcome!!

I am currently doing up costs for a food business.

I have many recipe costing docs for sauces, seasonings etc.

I want to create a master doc of all ingredients that I buy with weight, price, supplier etc and for it to be connected to the other docs so that I need only update the costs on the master and it updates the other related docs.

EG. Garlic powder would be a key ingredient in several recipe docs, it would be too time consuming to update the price across several docs but if there was a way to only update the master doc and it would in turn update the other docs with garlic powder on them, is this possible?

I hope this makes sense and I welcome any guidance!

Thanks

Just today I got the below message appear when I open MS PP and I can "select" and I have other click cancel about 10 times to get rid of it.

**Microsoft powerpoint needs access to the file named "acrobatUtils.scpt"**

**A macro in the file "SavedAsAdobePDF.ppam is requesting this access. Grant access only if you truthfully the file and its macros.**

I also can't "save as"?

What is the solution here? Ive googled it nd gave additional permissions but no joy. Should I delete and reinstall the programmes?

thanks in advance

Im attempting to fill out an application form in Acrobat however certain letters are appearing in a weird font and they look to be in bold (def darker than surrounding text but not bigger)

https://preview.redd.it/i3nb2jc51mfh1.png?width=864&format=png&auto=webp&s=12ff95dbc2c886db3c2f05a3cab79bb17f9e1250

Eg when I type in..."Hospitality/restaurant" the letters t,l,t,r,s,t,r,t from this those two words are in an odd font so it kinda look like this...Hospitality/restaurant

Does anyone known how to fix this as need to finalise this application asap and can't afford to have out look crap!!

thanks
