Did you turn it off and turn it on again? :pac:

That worked twice for us this weekend. Once on my phone picking up internet, once on my friend's washing machine having a hard reset to get the spin cycle working again. :pac:

I sometimes put peanut butter in a banana smoothie. It's amazing!

Hello all 0/
Years ago when we went on holliers to NY my american uncle introduced us to peanut butter and banana sandwiches. This was before we even had peanut butter in Ireland, it was a treat to bring home

We drew the line at his other favourite though...peanut butter and mayo sambo *gag*

ToxicPaddy

There goes the diet!!

Jealous.

I'm trying to be good and not eat as much rubbish. Think I'm having withdrawals.

It's unbelievable. The place where I worked in San Diego years ago had them, Cozzie can probably remember and will confirm.

Getting milk delivered??!

I didn't know you could still get your milk delivered. How delightful!

My morning's going pretty well considering my 9am double lecture was cancelled, so I can chill until 11am

It's the last chance I'll have today; I'll be working on an assignment from 2pm until about 11pm

Ah unlucky!

I used to leave assignments until the last minute then do a few all nighters and scrape a pass...there's certain elements of college life I miss....that particular facet is not one of them!

I've had weeks to do it, you'd think it'd be done and dusted by now

I'd say I'll be lucky to even scrape a pass, considering how little is done already.

CastorTroy

Sure by leaving assignments to the last minute, there's a better chance of only including the bare minimum. So all the essential stuff with less waffle, which leads to a better assignment overall.


Or so I believed.

Started an acting class last night, just to try and be sociable and stuff.

miamee

/mmm tea

Sounds good Castor, how was it?

GoldCobra

I'm feelin grrrrrrrrreat.
Bit sore from gym last night but should be fine for legs tonight. Looking forward to a tasty lunch.

Your ideas are intriguing and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter :pac:

Cool on the class CT, hope it went well, anything interesting covered?

ToxicPaddy

Morning all..

Finally getting back to Irish soil, my last few attempts were foiled by last minute work and indecisive peeps in the office.. :rolleyes:

But all done now so waiting in the airport, sipping a coffee and chilling out..

Have tea without milk! It is actually quite tasty and you taste the tea more!

Boo to the cold, lots of vitamins and fluids for you. Ah the milk came eventually, no need to go mad with the tea with no milk

Get Neurofen cold & flu - they work really well, i was dying with a flu recently and they sorted me out

Show off - with your "fitness" :pac:

How goes the rehab?

Sure if I was fit I'd be playing :pac: only doing stretching for rehab so the gym sessions have just been chest & arms, back & shoulders and core work every day.

Hoping the physio will give me some leg exercises to get working on the problem but hopefully I'll be back training tomorrow

CastorTroy

Class was grand. The whole thing seemed to be just games to get comfortable with looking an eejit in front of each other and creativity and stuff. Guessing next week will be the beginning of the lessons proper. Only 4 week course. 2.5 hours each week.

The Black Oil

Group hug icebreakers? Oh yeah, fun...

Next: Trust falls.

And today it was a bun they'd made....trying to fatten me up, aren't they?

We were talking about the Loch Ness monster (as you do ) and one of the kids came out with this gem: "I believe in it...you don't need to see everything to believe in it...after all when the sun goes down at night and the moon comes out you don't stop believing in the sun."
Proper little philosopher, but no worries, normal service resumed and went back to jabbering in my ear about ManU half an hour later.

Shup, I have plans to teach about Bigfoot tomorrow - purely because I have time to eat up AND I CAN.
Nah they're smart kids and this one'd be serious, even today it was like "Teacher, why don't you take the dry markers off the board so you don't keep using them?"....yes, yes that would make sense! I'll never laugh at the people on are you smarter than a 10 year old again :pac:

Also making an orchestra pop quiz right now...so I'm quite enjoying this
