Perfect washing every time with N17 Superstores and Bosch intelligent i-Dos

Thu, Aug 22, 2019

Get perfect results with every wash thanks to the Bosch intelligent dosing system i-DOS, now available at N17 Superstores, Briarhill and Milltown.

How much is too much detergent or too little? Save water by saving detergent: the i-DOS detergent saving system determines the precise amount of liquid detergent and always gets it just right. The machine precisely adjusts the dosage according to the amount of clothing, the type of fabric, and the degree of soiling. As a result, there is no more overdosing, which will prevent additional rinse cycles to remove the soap scum from washing detergents, leading to a more efficient wash. Your laundry will be washed with the optimal amount of detergent, water, and energy.

The magic of radio in days gone by...

Thu, Aug 22, 2019

When I was boy, as soon as school ended, my mother whisked us off to her home in west Cork, where my brother, sister and I spent most of the summer. It was a very different place to Galway. We enjoyed large family picnics, long afternoons fishing and rabbit shooting (everything was eaten), and picking fruit and vegetables in my grandparents’ large garden. Looking at old black and white photographs our everyday clothes were zipped corduroy jackets, short pants and wellies.

Parenting resilient minds

Thu, Aug 15, 2019

Mental health problems affect about one in five children and young people. They include depression, anxiety, and conduct disorders, and are often a direct response to what is happening in their lives (Mental Health Ireland). According to the World Health Organisation around 50 per cent of mental disorders begin before the age of 14. Parents have begun to figure this part out themselves.
