What are those things with sleeves , pockets , that fasten down the front and were worn over your clothes called then ? I always thought they were the house coats

Genuine question btw , I blame Grem for mentioning them

Well a quick Google wiki refers to hilda ogden: with her trademark curlers and a pinny

Phone not letting me copy and paste.

Another Google: housecoat is a loose dressing gown for women.

Jesus Christ what have my Saturday nights become??:)

I'm in bed. I'm so tired, I'm finding working and studying means I'm getting sod all sleep during the week. I'm off next week though and I'm planning on doing nothing but chilling. And tomorrow is my first lie in in weeks, it's the little things isn't it?

Preparing myself to snore.

Lucky, lucky feckers i just couldn't rest earlier Ah well, have a wink or two for me

Trigger Happy

Am three sheets in the wind...

I didn't go out,couldn't find my mojo and glued to the couch,despite having a million Sky channels and Netflix I'm here watching The Folk Awards on RTE and its actually a great accompaniment to my first glass of wine in about 2 weeks,tbh I don't think I'll even finish it just felt I should be having one on the weekend...if we ever have a meetup it will have to be at lunchtime, we wouldn't be able for a night out lol.

Gremlinertia

Duvet i think you did well, walk before you run kinda thing

Metal Dave, so sorry for your loss, look after yourself.

I'm so sorry, Dave. 2019 started by taking my two closest friends and then my favourite aunt from me. I was in shock and on autopilot all year...sometimes I still am. Trying to power through the grief without feeling it only comes back to bite you so don't feel pressured to be ok straight away. Always welcome to pm me for a chat if it would help.
The world will feel very different for a while x

What "jobs" would each be best suited to ?

I'd take a stab at a few

Auto - Part of a new car test group ( you know the teams that go all over the world trying camouflaged new models in different countries )

Snareem, Witchie, Smurf, HB - Have they already arrived ?

Trigger - Travel writer ?

Myself - A companion for Mutt ? ( cant see Mutt being enthusiastic )

Sephers - Tea Taster

Grem - I'm totally stumped ( what would you like to do, Grem ? )

Suggestion please ...

What about me? Am I on the dole?

Couchside at home, Graham Norton on the box.

Got a great, long, much needed sleep last night after a very busy week. Got up at 1pm, and headed to the beautiful Russborough House in Wicklow with my OH. Hadn’t been there in over a decade - the art collection is breathtaking - no wonder it was robbed three times, in 1974 by the IRA, in 1986 by Martin Cahill aka “The General” and finally in the middle of a tour in 2001.

After Russborough, we drove out to Mount Wolseley in Carlow for dinner and then back home. Wonderful day!

I would love to be a travel writer. Focus on the dark underbelly of any city I go to. And their fancy dan restaurants.

Grem could be in charge of 'Poster assurance'.
ie, patting people on the back and motivating them to keep going!

Gremlinertia

Really?. I figured myself as more of a negative nancy!

Up bright and early to see off a few of the lads (and lassies) I train with, they're on their way in to run the Dublin City Marathon.. Some its their first and others have over a hundred marathons!.

I've never done it but I get super excited for it and can't wait to take my spectator place at the RDS (I usually stand at Roly's, if anyone else is going in!).

I even have my little plastic hand clappers, they're great craic

Damn I'm like a children clock watching here.

honeybear

My pet pooch didn’t know the clocks went back! Doggies & cats happy out. Happy Bumbóg too. Have a great day guys!

Cup of tea and toast in bed. Contemplating getting up in a bit.

Good luck to everyone doing the marathon today.
