7 years.. you must be dead posh!!

I went down that road of looking at fancy flatscreen TV's..

I only have the 4 Irish channels and seeemingly all these flash modern TV's are not exactly compatible with rabbits ears aerials..

I got so conflustered by the techie speak I gave up on the idea of the TV!

I even tried researching terrestial and HD telly, gave up on that too!

So what I'm trying to say is Good Luck with that..

Cheap Thrills!

Evening all

How are ye all this evening?

Kids battered into bed !!!?

centrifuge

Morning All.

Just popping before I head to mass.

It's cold out there.

Ramette

Cicero

god, yez we're up early this morning

BBDBB

Morning all


is someone taking a register?

do I need to clock in??


has anyone seen my teeth?

slavetothegrind

You didn't leave them on the range again did you?

My late aunt did that, in some kitchen towel, then my uncle picked them up with some other stuff and into the range they went!
Much mirth for ages

We do have some early risers don't we, must spend the evening snoring in their chairs;)

Cicero

I love the sound of Sunday mornings..i.e. silence...it's wonderful...not another day like it...

I think it will require a lot more than prayers to redeem Old Goat's soul.

Early to bed and early to rise.

Mass was a hoot. One of the altar boys tripped and fell. He ended up sort of on his knees right in front of the priest.

If only I had one of those camera phones, that would have made a great caption competition.

Good day good people . I just noticed Im heading towards my 1000th post :eek:.. I should start a thread in AH

My ethics are above reproach however I have no soul and my morals are corrupt - thankfully. Redemption is unlikely and unlooked for. I would post pics of last nights shinnanigans but I don't want to be responsible for triggering palpitations.
Besides, I think Nurse might not give me any pudding after dinner for raising a ruckus in here.

Ramette

oh lordy.. the images i have in my head of old goat's sinful burlesque evening soiree....
right kitchen cleaned .. phew... took hours i HATE cleaning.. am off to do some grocery shopping (have run out of catfood) :rolleyes: dogs have masters and cats have servants ..!
Hope all you auld wans are having a restful day...

chucken1

Ramette

^^^Designated driver - lets have a roadtrip/pubcrawl. All off to Killaloe to celibate Chunkins 1000th post.

Ramette

there's a burlesque club in killaloe;)

OldGoat

Srsly?
Or are you toying with me, enticing me there, waiting to dash my hopes in the cruelist of fashions?

I know theres is a new club fighting to get off the ground in Sligo and a few people are talking about starting one in Galway. I was at one in Cavan in January.
The burlesque scene is so strong in Dublin that it's started to attract forign promoters with a new club just about to open up.

I really should have started this thread over in the B&C forum. Just to try and drag it back into vaguely O&O I have to say that the audience age demographic is slowly creeping up at a lot of the shows. There are a lot more of 35-40+ year olds turning up for events.

Ramette

Old Goat I must apologise profusely for my distinct lack of punctuation. there should have been a question mark at the end of my sentence . In was meant in gentle jest....
Please accept my sincere apology... though i am now very intrigued to attend a 'burlesque' night out.....

foxinsox

Ramette

foxinsox.. nice one re not working! am off thurs but wont be going mad as i am working friday.. so since you are off maybe you can cook us all a big feed of bacon and greasy cabbage with some parsley sauce on the day!!!
I have a friend coming over from america this weekend and he wants to go to temple bar (sigh) i believe some of the restaurants are advertising the fact that the waiters will be dressed up as leprechauns (oh god). I am PRAYING he doesnt discover that we have a leprechaun museum....

foxinsox

^ you've obivously not heard of my cooking skills..

eh I only cook about three times a month.. cooking isn't really my thing..

So I would save ye all from the pain..

As for bacon and cabbage I wouldn't know what to do with either

We have a leprauchaun museum?
I have been in the country too long, I am losing touch..

Cicero

Hey all....bacon and cabbage you say...put me down for a portion of that...what time should we arrive?

Ramette

ah sure you can arrive whenever, the bacon and cabbage can stew away in the pot all day if needs be:)

eh put water in kettle... press ON switch, get coffee from second cupboard from left, get spoon from press underneath microwave, put spoonful of coffee into cup (take one from counter). When kettle boils pour sufficient amount into cup and stir vigourously

Wimmin's lib rules!

Would you not prefer a cup of horlicks.. that coffee will keep you awake all night!
