I wish the heat junkies would feck off to Costa del Knackeragua and give me back my rain. For starters, watering all these trees and flowers every day is a pain (they didn't tell me that when I bought them all!). Ireland was doing fine before this so-called "good weather" nonsense started...

Mise: "Excuse me, do you know how I could turn on the air conditioning in my room?"
The Receptionist (with a smile): "Sorry, we don't have air conditioning in the hotel; it's not an Irish thing" (very nervous laugh).
Mise (inner voice): Perhaps you could ditch the uht milk from about 1984, the cups and saucers from about 1860 and the kettle from 1986 and invest in it? (Outer voice): "No problem, thanks."

Got a packet of Fruit Gums in Aldi today and they're not as nice as the actual ones. They're grand and I'll still eat them, but no rival for the real ones

Uugghhh the trauma! Forgot my Boards Password!! Generally we are spoilt by being able to stay logged into things! Even though I think Websites still log you out now and again to possibly make ya do a fresh log in or whatever I don't know.... But anyways, went to log in to Boards an hour ago, to be met with a dreaded blank box!! Couldn't for the life of me remember my Password! And then I couldn't remember my Email Address 'cos I have a million emails. :pac::o:rolleyes::rolleyes: Typing in first letter didn't bring up any previous emails that I might have used to log in lately possibly because I never log out and stay logged in 24/7! Logged out on Phone too so that didn't help. But thankfully, thankfully I could see email address when I went to log in on Phone. I'd never have remembered that Email! Would have had to register all over again! Such drama!

It's annoying too that Boards doesn't say if an Email address is registered or not! I tried 3/4 Email Addresses and it just gave an auto-message that email resetting link would be sent to that Email address. But it actually wasn't because I registered with a different Email. It'd be handy to say this Email Address is not registered on this Site or something instead 'cos I could be left waiting for reset link on an email address that there would be no reset link being sent to!! Anyway. Drama over now!

It's gonna get old fast. Dropped in a Form somewhere the other day, he printed it out off my Memory Stick and saved it. Had to go back again another day about something else.

Dweeb-head: Oh you never sorted out that Form the last time you were here did ya?
Me: a-la-smoky-ears-and-flared-nostrils: Excuse me, I gave it to you on my Memory Stick the last day I was here and we went through it on your Laptop.
D-h: *shuffles around on Computer for 30 seconds.* Oh yeah yeah I have it here now. Ya know how it is. Can't save anything anymore with all these new rules!
Me: .

Such an a$$-hat. If I didn't speak or just passively-agreed with him, he wouldn't have bothered checking if he had the thing on his Computer and I'd have to go and download and do out the shtupid Form again. That's actually making me really angry now. 'Cos it's gonna be used as a great excuse for a lot more.


What I came here to say! - Buzz-words. When someone spear-heads something. Ugh. Vomit. Go and die.

Also. Period in Humidity. Bleeding should be made an exception for when Temperatures reach a certain level! Can still experience Period if we absolutely have to. The Dis-comfort, Mood-swings, Period-Cramps. But, having to put up with the bleeding in this heat should be banned. Cramps are actually pretty bad too today. Wonder if the heat is any reason why they are bad as I rarely experience Cramps. Owww. They are bad.

If a nice-Boyfriend-y-type would like to bring me some Ice-Pops I wouldn't argue or complain.

People are my trivial annoyance today! People who ask questions incessantly, people who don't have the manners to say a simple please or thank you, people who ask me a question about myself and don't seem to care about my answer, people who rudely grab items off shelves right in front of my face instead of waiting five seconds for me to pick up the item I want and move on, so many annoying people!

Either way it's annoying to be shoving decongestants down my throat while everyone is posting pictures of themselves in shorts eating 99s!!

What's weird about this for me is I hardly ever get a cold but since the last heatwave I developed one. Just a runny nose noting too serious. Viruses move in mysterious ways.

I've probably said it before, but some Irish women clearly feel the same way about their black tights as Charlton Heston feels about his guns. The hottest weather we've had in 40 years and people are still going around in their 70 deniers. The mind boggles, it really does.

Hottest in 40 years? Monday’s temperatures were far from record-breaking.

Because they think they can walk and work on their arms at the same time? Because they're trying to fan their bodies 'cause they're too hot? Because they like to get into the swing of things? :pac:

At the photocopier, person next in the queue to use it says "oh I had terrible bother with it yesterday evening, hopefully it's working again", I started to use it and it became apparent it's not working again so I said to the person "I presume you've already called in the fault?", he looked at me like I had 10 heads and said "no I didn't". WHY THE FUCK CAN PEOPLE NOT LOOK AFTER THINGS LIKE THIS??? :mad: Every office I've ever worked in, there has always been people who walk away from broken office equipment and expect someone else to sort the problem:mad:

When Lidl/Aldi open up another checkout and people from the end of your line, who've been queuing the least amount of time, dash over and get served first. That's grand, I'll just stay here. Forever.

Badly Drunk Boy

I've been out of work for about a month and just started back today. (Firstly, I collapsed due to a viral infection in my kidneys, which caused my blood pressure to drop. I felt dizzy, steadied myself against storage racking but I must have blacked out and let go. The next I feel is a big clunk of my head of the ground, having fallen backwards like a felled tree (and I'm hefty 6'5"). So that was 5 days in hospital and then recovery at home.

Just as the recovery period finished, I was scheduled to get an ingrown toenail removed, so a bit more recovery (and I'm still getting it dressed).

Anyway, the trivial annoyance is returning to find about unread 800 e-mails. Really annoys me.

My abject apologies. I should clearly have said "The beginning of the most prolonged period of hot weather which is set to include the hottest temperatures we've had in 40 years", because my general point obviously doesn't stand otherwise :rolleyes:

But yesterday (the day to which you referred) wasn’t record-breaking or even close, so it’s relevant to mention that. People were wearing trousers and jeans yesterday. I don’t see why tights would be singled out. Many people won’t go to work bare-legged. And if you’re from a hotter country, yesterday’s temperatures probably didn’t even feel that warm.

But the rolly eyes have been deployed. I’m chastened.

Got a new telly for use in the kitchen, have it set up and working but caused a few TAs

Worst was I hit my forehead on a corner of an overhead press and drew blood while connecting cables grrr

Maybe it's not a new thing but the power comes from an adapter like a laptop - unnecessary clutter instead of a simple lead into the back and it's annoying me.

It's kind of a TA that a 32" is considered a small telly nowadays (I was worried about it being too big but it's grand)

I've just dug out my Fan and the effing thing is effing effed. :mad: It stays going for a minute and stops then. See this is what I need a Boyfriend for. I wouldn't go at it myself but I'd hazard a guess it doesn't need much other than taking a Screwdriver to it 'cos it half-works it is just falling apart and needs to be put back together again! Any nice fella in Galway out there into D.I.Y. like to try fix Fan for me?!? :P:pac::D

Or I could just try find Tenner from nowhere and buy a new one. Dear God it's loud though!! It sounds like an Airplane crashing for feic sake! :D:D

Feckin' heat. Staying in a hotel with big long empty corridors that have me humming the theme tune for The Shining. Baby unsettled in travel cot. Won't sleep in new environment. 3-year-old therefore won't sleep. Ah "holidays", get a room with this hot weather and feck off.

All genuine holidays henceforth will be at home, with day trips to open farms, fun centres, forests and the back garden.

Really though I see myself as more of a cluster duck than a freak, freak sometimes just isn't a mean enough adjective to really emphasise the situation.

TA Dettol need to come up with a deodorant for some of the creatures walking the streets the past two days water isn't just wet people it will also stop you smelling of ass and not the good kind neither
