Once years ago I had to use the facilities in Busaras. I've seen my share of bus/train station toilets but this by far was the worse! I felt like I was walking the line and wasn't meant to return among the living. I did come back. Utterly disgusted, feeling like I needed a bath in bleach. Yuck. And they had the cheek to charge 20 cents!

Careful what you wish for - the bus station facilities in Limerick they use so much bleach in there it'd tear the eyes (well, 'eye' in my case :pac:) out of you! :eek:

They could do with one of those weed killer sized backpacks for around the station though, I often picture something like Ghostbusters

Feeling flat. Isn't feeling flat shyte? I'd rather be sad, or mad, or better yet - happy. But "flat" is just so meh.

When stuff breaks soon after you've cleaned it. I descaled the kettle a week ago, a task I hate doing. I picked up the kettle to fill it earlier and there was a puddle of water under it, I could see the water trickling down the plastic level indicator. I stupidly paid 60 odd euro for that, I don't usually pay silly prices for kettles but I got sucked into the red morphy richards one.

Worst kettle I've ever owned, even though it was the most expensive. So now I've reserved a 15 euro one in Argos to collect tomorrow. Never buying an expensive kettle after the Morphy Richards one.

Been using a basic plastic kenwood kettle for the last 2 years and will never get a fancy one again.

used to have a fancy stainless steel one before that. the stainless steel ones inevitably get streaks of limescale on the outside of them from water trickling down the side when filling it, ends up looking fooking awful then it went and broke after a year will defo be sticking to basic plastic ones in future.

I opened a door of a toilet at a London Tube station once. Words fail me, it was unusable, to be polite about the state of it. I think I've mostly blanked the memory.

Everyone should join in. I've often been tempted when someone is yelling into a phone, in a public place, to start a competing yell.

I can't recommend one of these highly enough. I have zero interest in exercise, etc, but I got up on one of these the other day and laughed my ass off, they're deadly altogether.

Why oh why are those 'peel and reseal' packets of sliced cheese allowed make such outlandish claims?

Yeh. That.

Be grand.

My favourite running pants were in the car. They needed to be washed. So I went and put all the dark things together to wash with them. And then I put the wash on but I had forgotten to put in my favourite pants >.< I might have to wear shorts for my race on Saturday and I didn't want to wear shorts. I wanted to wear my favourite pants.

Yep, I can identify with that.

I have 2 pairs of running pants I absolutely love and then loads of other pairs I hate. My runs are never as good when I'm wearing the sh*tty pairs.

My favourite ones just fit perfectly and I don't feel like as much of a heffer in them as I do in my other ones. And they've a tie string because my waist is feckin tinch so everything falls down. And they've a pocket that fits my phone because I can't bear anything restrictive like an arm thingy or the likes.

Jaysus whoops. They're just trousers would ya stop :rolleyes:

Years ago we were travelling by train from York to London then on to Essex for Christmas. That train comes down from Scotland and there was really bad snow. The train was delayed for ages and the power went when it finally pulled into York station. Eventually we got on and every single toilet on the train was disgusting, I've tried to erase the memory. Thankfully in those days you could smoke on the train, so I could try to ignore the urgency of my full bladder.

There is a phrase for this situation, but mind has gone blank.

People who couldn't be bothered to get up of their arse to do something about their bodies should be forced to go to gym before docs see them.

"But its in my genes" while reaching for the hob-nobs. No its in your belly & the sh1te you put in it.

Exercise is addictive though.

I'll think of you while I'm running a 15km race over a mountain on Saturday and I'll laugh at your suggestion I should do more exercise

My motivation comes from my friends, and from my heart.

Dying for a cuppa when I got home today and there was no milk left.
And I had €0.30cent to my name.

Was too embarrassed to ask my neighbour for a cup of milk, so just had water

Next time you have money you should buy milk powder to keep in your press for emergencies. It's not the same but it's better than nothing.

If you lived nearby I'd bring you milk

Really? My neighbour asked me for bog roll, with a pained expression on his face before. I couldn't refuse

When I'm in bed, sick, and needy. So I want cuddles but he's too warm, so I push him away from me and then I get cold again and feel miserable. There's no perfect temps when I'm sick, I'm either too warm or too cold.

If my neighbour called round to ask to borrow a cup of milk, my first thought would be "What is this, 1950?"

But it wouldn't even cross my mind that it might be due to financial issues.

Kids. Tipp-ex. Carpet.

:mad:

And Mr Clever Clogs thought he'd cover the place in turps to get the stains out. Now, we've a ruined carpet (bleached in places) and the place stinks to high heaven. It's only feckin' Tipp-ex and the kids didn't mean it but I went nuclear. And I feel bad about it.

But the carpet is ruined. <sobs quietly>

Wisdom tooth coming up, half my gum is flapping off and swollen.

Swollen tonsil on the same side. makes chewing and swallowing a nightmare. Even breathing is painful, its throbbing so bad every time I open my mouth

Barely There

The coffee machine in work.
It's a big beast of a yolk and presumable expensive so why does the coffee taste so awful?
Usually I bring in my own coffee, but I've run out so am having to drink this awful muck.

well, since we are being honest - a fb friend of mine... one of their elderly relatives passed away...

and they have posting pictures and big long messages to their relative that passed away on their timeline... which everyone obviously sees.

I don't get it. and it annoys me.

Wisdom teeth in general.
I got mine removed over a week ago. My face is still swollen, my mouth is still sore and I still can't open my mouth fully. And it's made my ear sore too :-(

Poor Foggy and Poor Mauzo. Hope you both feel better very soon
