BRING ME BRING ME
I’m home now, ready to get myself into some devilment. No Xanax tonight. I was on deaths door all day, so devilment but not too much.

Mam of 4

Wizzy , go to the beach and take some pics , moon and sea , perfect combination , magical !

Purple Mountain , you haven't lived until you've had the red stuff applied to a graze on your knee

Mam, I thought you'd made that murco thingy up, I've never heard of it.

On the couch having a nice cup of tea. Went to see IT Chapter 2 tonight with my friends, it was pretty good

Geez not a hope would I make something up Leggy

I think it got taken off the market years ago as there was Mercury or something in it . Although it could be back new and improved at this point !

That brings me back Mam of 4! Made with mercury. Banned in most places now.

They used to nearly bathe us in it when I was a kid My mother thought it cured everything, and would pull it out at the hint of a scratch on you :pac:

We got germolene or TCP, you'd smell it for days.

Pretzill

I remember iodine (that was red too) was that the same stuff Mam? It was like an antiseptic.

Out would come the bottle and the white feather and you'd get painted with it , hilarious

Leggy , ye were posh getting Germolene
TCP , vile stuff , you'd stink for a week with that alright !

Couchside, and I swear I can feel the TCP smell just from reading your sentence:eek:

Mercurochrome stained your skin a weird orangey brown for a few days. A high cred badge of honour amongst the street hardened under10 crowd back in the day... :P

I'm not certain , am open to correction Pretzill but I think they were two different things ? Probably done the same job , and I know I got the spelling of it wrong also , sorry


Grem , good to see you

Leaba time, night wherers.

In stitches here now texting my mother: her other 70's / 80's obsession was DabItOff. Also now banned...

I swear it came out for everything too, it was like she had Mercurochrome in one pocket and DabItOff in the other. DabItOff was a weird solvent (carcinogenic) stain remover that cam in a little glass bottle with a wee cushiony dispenser thing on top. Worked on EVERYTHING. Curtains, couch, carpets, clothes, I think the poor dog used to get it on occasion.

Surprised we've lasted this long with all the chemicals and bad 70's 80's food

Seriously, I do remember a weird paste for chicken pox? Probably the same one the horses legs got when they were tired/banged up

Gremlinertia

Ooh calamine lotion nonsense for chicken pox.

Deja Boo

I'm sleepy, oh.. so... zzzzzz.....

Trigger Happy

On the luas and a bit wobbly...

Did you check your bank account after midnight?

Witchie

On my sofa annoyed. Washing machine seems to have decided to pack it in halfway through a wash. Can't get it open now. Need my clothes too. Dammit.

Surprisingly unhungover after a night of beers, margaritas and tequila shots. Do it all over in a few hours while watching Liverpool play. I love when games are 7.30 here instead of midnight. Gives me an excuse for a few early pints and can get drunk after the game. Yeeeooo!

Work drudge
Look like another lovely day weather wise

Poochie05

God I miss the old pink stinky Germolene ointment, cured all cuts and got thorns out overnight. The version we get these days is a pale imitation and useless.

Morning all, brekkie then a walk. Shaping up to be a beautiful day. Have a good Saturday folks.

smurfjed

Morning all, I get to go to work today so totally happy, and will be home in time for kickoff.

honeybear

Dogs walked. Cats fed. It’s a beautiful morning. Happy Saturday All!

Morning all,
Kitchenside with a coffee deciding what to do for the rest of the day:D

Beautiful morning for a run and a swim, so guess what ol' Mak is doing in awhile

Might get a BBQ on for the game.. I'm on a 24 hour shift tomorrow so won't be over doing it with the BBQ and beers.

Beautiful morning and looking out over Portmarnock, the sea is like a mirror!.

Widdershins

Homeside. Just saw off himself. He has work today and tonight and my ex is coming over today. The complete opposite kind of person. Thinking of trying new age sage smudging to get rid if his evil vibes when he leaves

I'm going to need coffee now...lots of strooong coffee

Forgot to say, anyone notice a green tint to the moon and its halo?

Ps.For thorns or splinters, you can apply fat. Olive oil, vegetable oil, butter etc. A rasher of bacon rubbed over the puncture is traditional

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

It's a beautiful day out there, so lots going to be done. Not sure exactly what or when but I suspect a good old fashioned busy day ahead.

Trigger Happy

It's a breakfast in bed day for me. Got a blank slate to work with today which is nice.

CrowdedHouse

...there's a strength in being together like a steel bar that won't bend, never mind the strangers cos I'll always be your friend...



Morning all

It's a nice sunny morning 9C

Couchside with tea, scrambled eggs soon I think

All my gang are just gone for the day,I made packed lunches and breakfast for them ,silent house here now and I'm back in the leaba for 5mins,feeling great,think I might go for a bit of retail therapy and then tackle the house later and watch the match, out again tonight...what a gorgeous day ,the weather definitely lifts the spirits..have a great one lads.

Morning all

Happy Saturday!!!

Just back in from a walk it's a lovely day. Deskside now as there's still work to be done this week - Hope you're all having a lovely weekend.

Ifevera wiztherewas

My favourite day of the week. And all the sweeter when there's lovely weather like today. Have a good one lads.

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

A couple of cars washed and gleaming. Coffee is brewing, so time for a break with Java, biscuits, and a book in the garden.

GoneHome

Glorious day out there, got a two mile walk done at 8.30, been tipping away at gardening/outdoor jobs since, just in now for a ham and cheese sandwich and a cuppa. Want to get all my jobs done by about 4.30 to get in and showered before heading out to the local to watch the Kerry/Dublin replay.

Leg End Reject

Afternoon all, lazy day ahead of a BBQ and drinks, perfect drinking weather today.

I am in deepest Ballsbridge.

Go on Kerry!!
