How to go about fixing this?

Foam blocks behind plaster so I don’t have space for the timber batten method. I bought some expanding foam but I’m a bit unsure how to go about it and whether I should still use the existing plasterboard cut out. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

SOS Cookies any good?

Seen a load of people talking about them on TikTok shop but the prices seem pretty outrageous. I could only really justify getting them as a gift for the family. If I was to buy something from there what would you lot recommend?

Best VW specialist mechanic in Limerick?

Reasonable car repair quote?

Few things came up during annual service of my VW Golf and it’s looking like the most urgent matter is the timing belt and water pump needs to be replaced. I was given an estimated quote for the repairs. Should I shop around or does this look reasonable?

Opinions on Ireland State Savings?

I have around €30k in savings that I’ve been drip feeding into a BOI regular saver accounts to avail of the 3% interest rate and the rest in other accounts with similar interest rates with instant access. Ultimately I’m waiting impatiently for the new tax free Investment Savings account to come in with the current government. Is State Savings worth looking into?

PTSB current account went into overdraft

Set up a BOI supersaver account recently and I set the direct debit date as the 2nd of the month. Well earlier today they unexpectedly took the first debit putting my PTSB account into the minus. I quickly transferred money from my Revolut which brought it back to normal. I’m just wondering if anything will come from this? Will a missed direct debit show on any kind of credit report or will I have to pay any kind of charges with PTSB?

Fuming tbh as I explicitly chose the date that suited me with BOI and they just go ahead and choose whenever.

How’d I do?

The tv is a 77” LG G4. I originally bought the 65 inch (had it boxed for ages while I was getting stuff done in the living room) but exchanged it after bringing it home as the online rtings tool said it was too small for my viewing distance (~3.5 metres)

Car service recommendations

Car needs an annual service soon. I went with SRG last year and I was happy with the service provided but I’ve heard some people on here had bad things to say about them which has caused me to think about going elsewhere. Any recommendations?
