When you got old :P

29 next week I'm pushing on alright haha :P

I only started getting hangovers about 6 months ago! I'm just learning how to deal with them, this rapid increase in recover time is too much haha :rolleyes:

McChubbin

I'm 26 in April and I'm clueless as to where the time went. In my mind, I'm still 16.

P.K.M.

Ye're all feckin' babies! Kids!

So...the Primera decided to pack up on me yesterday. :mad: I know what the problem is, it's one of the main fuses in the engine bay, it's for the ignition and central locking. The problem is...the car is locked and I can't open the doors to pull the bonnet release to fix the problem! AAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

And I'm working tonight. Could have done with the night off, I'm feckin' wrecked.

PKM..You got glass cover on your insurance?

Cheapest way out of it is to break a fly window.Glass wont affect your no claims bonus and you`ll probably get it fixed in a couple of hours.

Everyone talks about being young and not getting hangovers but I've been getting hangovers since I was about 16.

Does the primera not have a hidden key on the passenger door? if it's the same model as mine (2002 on) it's under a removable bit of plastic by the handle.

Ms. Koi

Guess what I did this morning???

I'll tell ya!

I bought a new car

Penny Tration

I've had, without a doubt, the worst two days of my life.

Someone give me coffee and a hug please

Angron

Wanna talk about it?

Wooo well wear kellief, what did you buy?

Awww green_screen, I hope you're ok

Work is doing my nut in. All I really want is to be left in a corner with stuff to do and left at it but instead I have to try and balance politics and the whims and desires of my various bosses, most of whom haven't a clue what I'm actually doing.

I don't know, you forget one TPI coversheet and you hear about nothing else.

On the plus-side, the haircut has been going down well so that's one thing.

So frustrated! I've been trying to find the clip of Tom Hiddleston on Top Gear all bloody afternoon and every video link I click on on Youtube is "Video removed by user" or "This video violates your country's copyright laws." :mad:
In other news, I'm exhausted. Fortunately, I have posh Lindt chocolate infused with orange so it's not all bad.

You can get browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox to get around that. or go through a VPN.

Thought of that, but I'm cancelling the insurance this week and don't know if I'll get away with it. I needed to transfer the insurance onto the other car while I fix up the Primera, and they won't do it so I told them to shove it. I have someone new to insure me on the Space Wagon, which I'll be doing tomorrow as I taxed it today.

Ordinarily yes...but due to a botched attempted break-in, there's no barrel on the passenger door, hence my problem.

Hope things work out Green_Screen. Sorry about whatever's happened.

Was starting to worry about getting sponsored for shaving my head 'cause so many people kept saying 'I'll give you money when I have cash on me,' and not following up but today at lunch one person gave me money and then everyone around the table ending up giving me something. Still don't know if I'll reach me target but still glad to be getting something.

Had a fairly decent day but stress is driving my compulsions crackers. This semester is going too damn fast to keep up.

Was in my mates pet shop. Gave him some rabbits for his snakes. Two 14foot Burmese pythons.
Lovely well tempered snakes. He also has a bullfrog which I'd love to get myself.
So funny looking.

McChubbin

Get the bullfrog, dodderangler! You could call it HypnoToad!
In other news, managed to find a Vimeo link to the Top Gear clip. It was awesome!
Also, my Mom made chocolate dipped strawberries!

Cane toad I'd love to get and call it hypnotoad

Ms. Koi

I bought a Renault Clio, it's absolutely gorgeous!
Monaco model, 2007, it's black and in pristine condition. Currently about to do the cartell check Dad told me about, it apparently checks and tells you if there was any serious damage etc. Worth the €35 for peace of mind.

Ear is thundering at the moment, got the print out of the hearing test. Audiologist (I've decided that is what the hearing test man is called!!) has said there is damage to my membrane (ear drum) and hearing as a result of repeated infections. He recommended treatment by GP but he did say I should go to see an ENT specialist as there is a lot of damage done apparently.

But I did buy a new car today, so that makes things better. Plus himself was a total dote earlier and cheered me up...it's the little things like a random text that make you happy!!

My daughter was seen by the audiologist (you'd be right about that title) in Mount Carmel when she was two. She's 4 in two weeks and will be seen by an ENT sometime this year. Public SUCKS, so get that referral as soon as.

Are you serious????? It's causing me a lot of hassle, I'm clumsier than usual (I'm assuming my balance is being effected). I'm quite worried about long term damage, as my granny went deaf as a result of untreated ear infections! Your poor little girl

January

She's fine She has some fluid on her ear but she doesn't get ear infections. We thought she had some hearing loss because she has a speech delay. She also has Sensory Processing Disorder (I brought her to the toilets in Tesco today and she nearly had a melt down because there was a hand dryer there, she cannot stand the noise) which.

She has to have physio therapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy because she's a bit behind in those respects (fine motor skills, upper body strength is behind). It's taken us two years to get near them on the public system. Everything has come at once. Including my other daughters open heart surgery this summer!!

She sounds like a pretty amazing kid though! I would imagine she just takes it all in her stride? They are pretty damn cute going by the photos you put up though. You are a very tough and close family so I hope you are doing okay!
