    Dammit, want!

    Screw it, that's it, I'm finally going to book some time off work, I've still around twenty days remaining to take before the year ends or I lose them.

    Anyhow, it's not bad out, considering the hail stones that fell last night I was expecting much much worse driving conditions.
    I will take some holidays if you have spare, I have about 3 left :(

    Admittedly, I was a relatively early departure, think it was 1:45 or thereabouts.

    So there could have been an orgy after that!

    The bus driver was stopped at the lights, he just pulled away from the bus stop and I waved and let me on :D I was sure he wouldn't :D Today was a good day!

    Very true Grames, good news is always welcome :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    Great news Awec delighted for you :)

    My body is in a heap after Amsterdam, had today off and still in bits!

    My bank account is in worse nick, don't think I can head to that gig next Monday in Dublin and living off pasta for the rest of the month it's looking like....on the plus side having no money means the gym becomes a free way of doing something!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,404 ✭✭✭✭Pembily


    He's alive \o/ Did you enjoy it? Where did you go? I'm going in 2 weeks, can't wait! Miss my bestie so much, can't believe he is loving there 3 years now...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,399 ✭✭✭KamiKazeKitten


    Think he's collapsed again Pem!

    Which is what I'm going to do now, because I was in college at half eight and just back home now :(

    Well...sort of. A lot done, more to do, you know? I'm still not done, I have to finish things off now!
    I don't know, supervisor meetings tomorrow so could end up redoing chunks, oh the joys.


    I found a Letterland book buried in the library, anyone remember that thing? I had to take it out, so much nostalgia. :D

    I feel this is appropriate here (yes, I've both worked out how to do that link thing and spent a lot of time listening to Disney today, in my defense I'm teaching it!)
    Well, not that song, but other ones. Anyway. Never can have enough Disney.

    Love it! But don't start giving me more ideas :pac:
    Secondaries yeah, primaries usually not, and not in this one anyway. Besides, can always download videos if I have.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    kkk was right I did in fact collapse again - went for a nap earlier!

    I liked it Pem, nice enough city but had one or two horrible taxi drivers to deal with, barring that enjoyed it but learned a good bit, would plan it much differently if I was to head again, spent a fortune :(

    hope y'all had good weekends btw!

    Also Ann & Barry ftw

    How is the stitch now D?

    D'Agger that sucks about taxis, I just cycle when over there so don't have to deal with them.

    D'Agger is right Kaimeria, 3 min into the journey would have sucked!

    CUTENESS :D

    Well we walked everywhere else - but we had to get the taxis from the airport to the hotel as the shuttle bus was only once every hour and we kept just missing it! Can understand them being annoyed, waiting ages at the airport for a fare and then it's a quick, inexpensive journey - that said, tough shít, you can't be that rude to people and rip them off by not using a meter and pulling a price out of thin air.

    Like I said, will stay centrally next time and get a bike to get around or something.

    They tend to be very curt, it's not anything personal, it's just they way they are.

    Also, I find in any country taxis rip off tourists :mad:

    lol no pain no gain though! Downloaded yogalates dvds to run through at home so plan on doing some of that most mornings and hitting the gym 2/3 times a week.

    Have to head to Dublin tomorrow for work and it's going to kill me re:m diesel....so broke!

    That's true, they're fairly blunt the Dutch, that said some of them were absolutely lovely - I maintain that it's the same in every country - you're going to meet nice people and you're going to meet absolute assholes - it's just the way people are, regardless of nationality!


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Randall Low Wig


    Going by the threads here our taxi people aren't always the best greeters

    Yeah I am thinking no pain no gain and am possibly going again this week :p
    And pilates on Saturday :eek:

    Can't wait for massage on Saturday

    Hope the massage is scheduled for after the pilates! Had a go at pilates a while ago, fracking hell! Intense, but worth it. Def would do it again if I had the time/money combo :p


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Randall Low Wig


    I love pilates, haven't gone in a few weeks but I was going twice a week. Hopefully friend is better and we can go again this Saturday.
    Massage is definitely afterward, the class is at 10am... lol

    10am on a Saturday?! :eek: Fair play!*

    I agree though, it is always more fun when you can rope someone else into going with you!
