Yes but there's strange accents and then there's Daggs...we'd need to hire him a translator before we set him loose on the poor women of Dublin!

Great, Saturday afternoon, me and son have the apt to ourselves. Battle of Los Angeles blasting on the stereo.
We may need to apologise to everone in the apartment block later.

I'm enjoying my morning, just about to go for a coffee

Ribs were at me again during the week so went to VHI, have a case of bruised ribs which requires 4-6 weeks rest apparently, hoping to take it handy this week and be able to go back to it next week.

How're the Tuesdays going so far gents? Nice sunny day here in Cork

Knex*

Lovely day here in Dublin too.

Still a little tired, and potentially still hungover, from the festival activities but work is going fine, if busy.

How are our exam folks getting on, and everyone else for that matter?

ToxicPaddy

All ok so far.. absolutely amazing day outside, so gonna head out for a stroll at lunch time methinks and admire the views

I'm in my last week at work here so killing time essentially.

Finishing up Friday, off to Spain Saturday, home Wednesday, off to Nice Thursday, start work in Intel a week later and have the following week off for Body & Soul followed by Sea Sessions - it's going to be a decent few weeks!

(Comes free with a 50% pay rise as well :pac:)

How was the festival actually - any recommendations coming out of it? Other than to drink in moderation

Sorry to hear that man, fingers crossed they'll mark it easier as a result - what are you studying btw?

Ah that sounds ridiculous! Enjoy you jammy fúck!! I assume you're not moving for the job?

Nice - always a good spot for a kebab with chips in it!

Check out Funeral Suits & Flight Facilities at Sea Sessions - Flight Facilities are amazing, this mix tape by them is brilliant to work or chill out to

No it's only out the road so staying in Ranelagh. It will be a fairly quiet trip to Nice this time around I suspect, just going with my cousin who is a non-drinker but that will probably be a good thing considering what I would expect to be an absurd week at the two festivals.

Any plans to visit Dublin over the summer?

That youtube link doesn't seem to be working either...

Video should be working now, dash missing from the link

Yeah hoping to get up to Dublin soon enough if I can, after saddling myself with a new car loan though and I'm hoping to go to Chicago & Vegas in October so I'll be saving as much as I can for the next few months so I'm not completely in debt heading into Christmas.

Sure you'll be grand - sipping coronas and whatnot on the balcony....if you're stuck you can always go for box wine

Thanks, funnily enough I've worked for them in the past as well, albeit in Shannon rather than Leixlip. I'll be in design rather than the fab.

Just after a matcha tea there, trying to get back into the swing of things with the diet

Gym was basic enough but never really that busy so never had any problems. There is a hall where we used to play football aswell along with a sauna and showers.
Canteen is grand. Everyone complains about it but it is probably as good a work canteen as I have seen anywhere. there are three of them anywway so if you get tired of one then move onto another.
They are a good company to work for. You just need to go with the usual corporate nonsense and safety stuff. They talk about sore fingers and wrists alot:D
The main downside is the social aspect. People live from Portlaoise to Tullamore to Dundalk to Dublin so nights out never really happened too often.

Ask away if you have any other questions. I was there for 14 years so know the place pretty well. Still know a heap of lads out there.

Cool, that was my next question actually about playing soccer. We used do two lunch times a week of astro in Shannon that was great, hopefully similar goes on in Leixlip.

I'm tempted to go with public transport having done a bit of research it's going to cost me in the region of €2500 a year to drive from Ranelagh, whereas I can get a Luas and Dublin Bus taxsaver ticket for ~€700. I think there's a bus that passes by Intel that goes from Westmoreland Street.

What sort of work did you do for them?

66 stops right outside. You can get the train from Connolly to Louisa Bridge either. Driving would be the quickest option though.
the hall can be booked for 5 a side but it was sometimes hard to get a slot. They have an outdoor pitch too though and used to have a team in the AUL league.

I was in the test and analysis department. Was a electronic engineer in a previous incarnation.

Had an exam this morning! Then went home, crawled into bed and slept til 6.
One more left...just one more...


The 66 goes on a very long route tbh, driving would be much faster.

Just found out my results are out on Friday... eeeeeeek!! :eek::eek::eek:

I'm starting to get nervous already..
