    I hate bin nights :(
    I was out all day with work then a work meeting in the evening so I have my ten toes up to the ceiling now trying to remember where the chocolate is hidden.

  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    Walk in the brisk crisp Autumn air with himself. Need a better term of endearment than himself and oh. This is such a beautiful country if you tune in to your surroundings. Time for Tay:)

    Oh and it's nippy enough to need a hat the next time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    Ah bugger, what's on ya Mak?

    I've come down with a chest/throat infection two days ago and its knocked the crap out of me.

    Today is race day and if it wasn't army (macho lol) I'd be out of it, but the lads would never let me live it down if I didn't at least go out on my shield lol

    So had a decent breakfast, packed my survival pack

    492657.jpg

    And about to get my game face on :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    Just reading back through the posts. I'm sorry to learn that so many are battling anxiety etc. The changing seasons can trigger a flare up, I find. There's something about this time of year that makes people very contemplative and introspective. Evaluating the year and all that has passed.

    As someone said, if you live a very full life you'll have very full feelings. Made sense to me anyway.

    On the couch having pringles, I should be at DBT but I've blown it off and I'm saying nope, I'm not an adult today. I'll eat all of the sweeties instead and watch Dirty Dancing.

    Lovely bright crisp morning, me & doggy had great walk.
    Off to spend the afternoon with my 2 favourite little people, I could eat them they're so cute!!

    Managed a run to aldi so missus is making shepherd's pie! Yay!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    Out and about for a time this morning - Mr Pretzill is not having a good time of it healthwise, so I got some makings of a tasty stew for later. As Widdershins said the changing seasons can knock us down, I don't like the dark evenings but I have lived so close to nature I have learned to appreciate bright winter days (like today) and the fact that before Christmas around the 21st the light starts to return - there's always a lot of winter left after that but I begin to feel better when the light returns.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,756 ✭✭✭4Ad


    In Seville, first time for me..it's lovely and warm..naturally having a small beer looking at a map, not sure where I am exactly but it doesn't really matter..

    I love the dark evenings in Winter. I wish we could have really great Summer weather but pitch dark by 5pm.:eek:

    Tech desk getting told off by an eejit.:D Made burgers earlier. Haven't cooked mine yet. Having midweek beers at home this evening as nobody available for midweek pints.:(

    Watching a Netflix series called Rebellion about Ireland circa 1916. Pretty watchable.

    Off to Paris in a few hours, then train across France to Basel.

    Jaysis well done Mak, few hot ones in order too I think ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,250 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    I'd love to slap this fooker. Don't care if he has a Boards account.:mad: A snippet of the chat.

    Fooker: Hey G. You know I love your work man.

    G: Doesn't sound like it. Your changes make no sense and I explained why yesterday.

    Fooker: These changes are important to the end product.

    G: The changes will make the end product worse. The version I have produced is the one I stand over.

    Fooker: Listen man, I think your age and experience is clouding your judgement on this.

    (Red rag to a bull)

    G: Stop calling me man. You know my name. My age has nothing to do with it. My experience has. Loads younger than me just as good or better. This is about me knowing what I do and you not knowing anything about what I do. You're a marketing person.

    Fooker: I'm a marketing executive, not a marketing person. Stop being so disrespectful. People like you rely on us for work. Make the changes.

    G: Email me confirmation that you have ordered these changes.

    Fooker: Just do it.

    Last communication ignored by me. Leaving tech desk and getting a beer. Enough is enough of these billy no lives.:D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,272 ✭✭✭Poochie05


    Ha ha, something tells me that morketing person is letting their age and lack of experience make them defensive :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,250 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Beer in hand and that knob head can get to F.....:D

    This is what I usually hang over one of my monitors. A happy feel good place.

    Well Mam, I've put a deposit on a custom made, gold plated Bentley. I'll winter in a soon to be acquired chalet in the Swiis Alps, and summer in a soon to acquired home in The Hamptons.

    I'm afraid that's as far as I've gotten so far ...

    Oh you'll adore The Hamptons, dawwwwwling. We summer there from time to time. Simply wonderful people, you really must go. The Bently Bentley might be a bit ostentatious...
