I could have used one of your tractors the other day. one of the neighbours had a slight car-in-a-ditch situation. we tried digging it out, but no go. had to call a recovery truck in the end. no damage to the car, though the same can not be said of the garden.

I hope the nice beer is making up for all the work Kingtut!

I haven't seen a forcast for tomorrow, but ouch! Trying to do that work in the freezing cold with numb hands...... It's been ages since I've stripped down an engine but I won't offer to help.

Not even with a big stick. Most I ever did was 26 days out of 27, but I wussed out and had a day off in the middle.

You should quit though. I'm only half kidding. It's actually illegal to work that many hours for a reason. Your odds of having an accident (at work, while traveling or at home) go way up. It's probably a difficult position to be in, but your health comes first...

Same! Though I'm thinking of skinning my youngest dog; she kept me up all bloody night barking at a stupid cat that could only be heard faintly from miles away. I was so mad at her this morning!!

I also have to finish Fable 3. It's beyond a joke at this stage, all I'm doing is dicking around now and haven't moved on with the storyline properly. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I read an article similar to that but they said the Cork store would not be affected. I would be very surprised if it was. It really is the only proper music store in the city centre.
And totally agree with the rummaging!!

mudokon wrote: »

I was thinking the same about the Cork store as they have a fairly captive market. Their is nowhere else in the Cork area to match them since Zavvi went bust. I read an article that they needed to reduce the number of stores to reduce their fixed costs and that most of the stores are on 7 year leases. So they may look at getting rid of the stores that have less time left on the leases as one of the criteria.

I wouldn't really buy CD's in there, mainly I buy DVD's but I would miss not being able to go in and rummage around the place if it was gone.

I still buy cd's sometimes but its dvd's I go to HMV for, I love browsing and finding an old film or series that I had forgotten about. Glad to hear they're probably staying, that Director's cut shop is really crappy and the only golden discs shop in town is tiny (the one in Merchants Quay). I'd say town was hit badly by the snow/ice before christmas.

Hope you're feeling better soon Tut, you work too hard!

Our house is freezing cos we ran out of oil, hopefully we'll get some delivered later!
Just back from a walk, love these cold but sunny days There's a spot at the top of our road where you can see all the way from the county hall all the way out to about Classes Lake on the west side of B'Collig. This morning the whole thing was covered in thick fog, couldn't see anything apart from the hills in the background. Was pretty cool Wish I had brought a camera!

If you liked the second one you'd like it. There are pros and cons (it was slated in comparison to the second fable. TBF I understand why it didn't get as good a response; there are a few annoying things about it, but it's still a pretty good game!) like any game but I'm sure it'll be cheaper soon enough.

There is some good stuff in Directors cut, the World Cinema section in there is great.

I enjoyed the second one but I wasn't eager enough to play the 3rd to pay full price for it.

Spotted Dan Boyle canvassing on the Douglas road today. Can't wait for that pack of Communists The Green party to come knocking on my door after what they did to the Motor Trade and driving in general in this country.

Guess the few months of endless election posters and useless promises is about to ensue.

Thanks guys! Thought it would be full on interviews but it was just a short chat with one of the lab staff. The place was massive, why were they allowed build there though when the traffic is sh1te anyway with Mahon Pt and all the other industrial estates. :eek::rolleyes:
