[15:42] <czajkowski> I get 2 boxes of 80 at a time
[15:42] <ebel> :)
[15:42] <ebel> who's denying you supermacs?
[15:43] <czajkowski> the mothership
[15:43] <slashbel> on the grounds that it's shite?
[15:43] <slashbel> or that you're not drunk enough to appreciate it?
[15:44] <czajkowski> on the grounds last night I was to come home and not go AWOL till all hours
[15:44] <czajkowski> may have to sneak out post work and pre meetings tonight
[15:47] <ebel> hehehe
[15:47] <ebel> sounds like the old thing of parents treating you like a kid
[15:48] <czajkowski> ah yes indeed
[15:48] <czajkowski> adn given I live out in the stix
[15:48] <czajkowski> I'm kinda at the mercy of lifts unless I nick her car
[15:48] <czajkowski> was gonna rent one
[15:48] <slashbel> no car?
[15:48] <czajkowski> but then left it so late to rent a car for 5 days was like 750 quid
[15:49] <slashbel> aye, my family live in the english countryside… so we rent a car when we visit
[15:49] <ebel> our
[15:49] <ebel> *ouch
[15:49] <slashbel> czajkowski: that's very high
[15:49] <czajkowski> yeah if I did it 8 weeks ago when I viewed it was was about 260
[15:49] <czajkowski> but then forgot about it
[15:49] <czajkowski> :/
[15:50] <slashbel> i did hertz via the ryanair website… €70 for 3 days
[15:51] <slashbel> sorry, 4 days
[15:51] <slashbel> credit to ryanair, you book your flights and it already has all times and dates filled in for hertz
[15:52] <slashbel> buy them together
[15:52] <czajkowski> nods
[15:52] <slashbel> that reminds me, ebel we need to checkin
[15:53] <czajkowski> 813.86 EUR
[15:53] <czajkowski> from the 22nd -> 26th dec
[15:53] <czajkowski> or prepay and it comes down to 742.24 EUR
[15:53] <czajkowski> on hertz.ie
[15:54] <slashbel> if you hire a car in limerick it would may be cheaper than shannon (no airport fees)
[15:56] <slashbel> or you could cycle ;)
[15:57] <czajkowski> oh
[15:57] <czajkowski> really
[15:58] <slashbel> :P
[15:58] <slashbel> sign up to LimerickBikes™
[15:59] <czajkowski> wow you're right
[16:00] <czajkowski> can get it for about 311 for the days needed
[16:00] <czajkowski> thanks tom
[16:00] <slashbel> no problem, airports usual trick of trying to rip you off
[16:03]  * ebel wonders about picking it up further from limerick...
[16:03] <ebel> Tullamore Car Hire Ltd, etc... :P
[16:05] <slashbel> i doubt that would make too much difference
[16:05] <czajkowski> its the dropping it back then
[16:05] <slashbel> aye, that's where the airports get you with the convenience
[16:06] <slashbel> we land in BHX late evening, it's just so much easier to collect the car there
[16:06] <ebel> aye
[16:07] <slashbel> also, city centre rental places only usually work office hours
