I don't know where we're going, but it can only be 5K away (Part whatever)

Snow and a baby!

I'm couchside contemplating how to spend the evening.

Purple Mountain

I'm in a queue outside a chipper.
It's Baltic but the thought of a quarter pounder are keeping me going!

Purple Mountain

And some gobshyte tried to jump the queue and is after being sent packing.

Dinner and dessert done. Just opened a cold bottle of Peroni. Gonna catch up with some friends this evening on a video call. It's an all coordinated worldwide event.:D If the Snow reaches my part of the world as expected, I can't get the car out of the drive because it's a steep enough driveway. But that was the plan to top up the shop today and stay in the PJs tomorrow. Dipped the oil tank earlier. Pretty much half full. Thank feck. It's badly needed for the next 72 hours anyway.

Work trundle time, brrrr etc.

Oh? Are we due snow?

Tomorrow is to be a dreadful day, snow, sleet, ice and cold

In good news I have the windows washed so I’ll be able to look out

Gremlinertia

Wet, breezy, snowflakes falling :mad:

The Inbetween is mine

Fell asleep for 45 mins...feel like death warmed up now
Hopefully my chicken katsu fries will help with the healing

Thanks guys, have been doing so for a year now, need support on stopping as its impacting on my health and making me do things without thinking. I never thought id be addicted to something but it can happen to anyone. Will change a few of my facebook settings

I don't have experience with addiction but I'd imagine it would be a good idea to reach out to a professional along with the support group.
Can you speak to a GP and ask about referral to an addiction service?
You can't manage this on your own and shouldn't have to.
Good luck

I'm praying I wake up to a blanket of snow in the morning. I haven't had the chance to build a snowman with my daughter yet. I cleared the back garden of frosty dog poo in preparation this morning :pac:

I guess of any year this one is ideal for snow with so many home as it is..

I have the Christmas tree lighting

There are three boats in the claddagh (galway) lit up beautifully, it's a lovely sight

Same here , am in the kitchen watching it falling , I love snow , something very peaceful and calming watching the landscape in front of you changing by the minute .

I like how when it's completely snowed over, there's a really cool echo outside.
And the sense of spacelessness (I know that's not a word!). What I mean is that when you're completely snowed in, it feels like nothing to trek off walking and exploring when you wouldn't dream of walking that far normally.

Couchside watching Predator doing mspaint.....

No snow in around here yet I'm hoping to get out in the morning in it! Make snowballs and throw them at myself!

Gremlinertia

Jacket on, coat around legs, the weird ever shifting breeze is fecking cruel. However i am inside, can't help thinking of many who are not.

So true Grem. We have the luxury of having a roof over our heads compared to others.

Those working out there, even saw photos earlier of folk in Russia protesting over Navalny in -50 :eek:

Predator.....You are one really ugly motherfooker! What a movie. Despite Arnie, I thought Danny Glover in Predator 2 was great!

Snow here and hopefully more as forecast. We ran around the back garden as it fell about an hour ago.:D

A great catch up online earlier with buddies abroad. They are as down as us with restrictions. But from reading a certain fooked up thread on boards, you'd swear it was only happening in Ireland.:D

Couchside by the fire. Blanket/cushions and cuppa at my side. I've been here reading ALL day

Grem that was so good to read and think about. Been a bit covid-jaded/cabin-feverish past few days but... Places we could be, places many are: ill/unsafe/cold/horrible environments. Ta... nothing like a wee bit of perspective...

The Wizards Sleeve

Browsing sharing boxes online. I must say cafes have been so creative with all these lockdowns, remodelling their businesses and providing much needed tasties to the peoples

Gremlinertia

Amazing indeed Wizard, if i had a business when all this happened i don't think i'd have the stomach to attempt to continue/reinvent

You are immersed in epic filmmaking Dave. I saw one on VHS, but two in UCI Tallaght in my second year of College. What a time to be around Movies. Terminator 2 and Die Hard 2 around the same time. I want a time machine.:D

I just went for a walk out to the road , that crunch of the fresh snow underfoot . I legged it back in when I heard a car though , pyjamas and a hoodie might have looked odd to others :pac:

Haha brilliant. That's something I do. Some mornings when I'm taking out the ashes tray in my pyjamas, and hear a car, I hide at the side of the house

Pyjamas and a hoodie will be me tomorrow. More snow forecast overnight for us. It;s great! Gonna have a sandwich of some sort. I have the munchies.:D

Well i think one thing about lockdowns, pyjamas are no longer something to be ashamed of on brief outdoor journeys

Ah they don't make them like that anymore. Proper violence. I remember the first time I saw the skinned body hanging in the tree in P1, I was in awe! :pac:

I am jelly of all you snow dwellers! Poxy living beside the sea... it's just rain here

Grem, lockdown or not.... PJs are too much soft cotton for ANYONE, ANYTIME outdoors

Mam of 4

Purple Mountain, it's funny isn't it? They probably wouldn't give a feck but we'd be mortified !

Grandeeod , enjoy the snack and the snow tomorrow, I love snow , it's like the sea , it restores your soul imo

Grem , my outside excursions in pyjamas would be very short lived !

So I have an adorable, beautiful baby niece. :D:D

I bunked into the Cinema to see Robocop in '87/'88. What a spectacle. Total Recall in ,90 in the Claddagh, Galway is another great memory. As I said a great period in cinema.

Snow still on the ground here and expecting more. A PJ day tomorrow and indoors with the heating up to full tilt!

Great news Witchie , enjoy the celebrations.
