When I used to get the bus regularly some years ago, one woman would be the last to arrive at the stop, but would barge on first.

It wasn't an 'every man/ woman for themselves situation' - there might be five or six of us who arrived at the stop ahead of her. I was usually first. And it was an early stop on the route so we would all get seats.

But one morning, I had enough of her queue jumping, so I barged on literally side by side with her. She is probably still in shock. 🤣.

She stopped barging in first after that though.

Yup, hate food waste. And not really from an environment perspective, but mostly that there are people starving in the world and we can choose to waste food. Not only that we let crops rot in fields cause there is no one to harvest them or the market conditions are not right.

Made the mistake of reading an Irish Times article about sandwiches before lunch. Fookin' lag le hocras now.

If you've hanging baskets around you can make something like this. It also works with different style feaders.

I had two simple tasks to do in work today which I wanted to have finished before breakfast time at 10.30am. Unfortunately I've been pulled in so many different directions today that I'm only halfway through one task and I haven't even started the second task yet 🙄 Roll on 4.30pm today

a relative has a friend working running a charity shop. Every few months everyone will get a gentle nudge… “ hey, a reminder any clothing, books, DVDs, or anything you don’t want, just put them in a bag and I’ll take it to them “ No problem…..good way of helping people & getting rid of stuff you no longer want / need… great…

The ‘nudge’ every few months has gone to just about fortnightly and it’s got so fücking annoying to the point this morning on receipt of another WhatsApp I’m…. “ listen, enough is enough …..if I’ve stuff to give away I’ll let you know, quit asking non…fûcking…stop…… 🥱

I’m not Elon Musk or Bill Gates… I don’t posses 16 walk in wardrobes of clothing and I’m very proactive regarding moving stuff on that I don’t like, don’t need or that I am just done with, the only books, records and music collection I keep are part of a wanted collection…..

if they send another WhatsApp this month they are getting blocked. Enquire why they’ll be told… “ because you won’t leave people alone “

I live fairly near to two schools, in-between them but not too close to one of them. Also in-between them is a crossroads (with traffic lights) that the County Council have decided to dig up on the week the schools start back up. Usually, the roads are relatively busy at certain times of the days, especially up until 5.00/5.30 but yesterday evening the traffic was still backed-up at 9pm.

The schools restarting is obviously only part of the problem here, but starting the job a week earlier probably would have made a huge difference.

And it caused me to be late for work yesterday too, even though I left a bit earlier than usual. (BOO-urns!!) 🙁

Why do people who ought to know about copyright keep trying to worm their way out of paying for their f*ckups. Oh your picture is beautiful and we want to show people...... posting it on Twitter.... I couldn't see the copyright info on the phone screen..... here's a peanut for your troubles.

Indo headline;

"Hike in hospitality VAT a ‘serious blow’ to Irish tourism with rural business worst affected, says hoteliers"

These are the same hoteliers, who now charge €22 for a bar Burger and Chips, €9.50 for a glass of house wine, and are looking for €200 a night per room in the low season. Prices were 60% of that and less when VAT was 13.5%. They can fup off.

10 days in Tenerife was cheaper than 4 days in Killarney a few years ago. And I mean much cheaper. And that was family of four .

Or who don't put down the divider thing so you can start unloading your trolley. You have to reach across them to grab it.

CDs in charity shops.

Spines not properly aligned (some upside or reversed) so you can't quickly tell what it is.

CD singles and albums priced the same.

Missing discs.

Same applies to vinyl - 12" singles and LPs at the same price.

looking for a few days break in October, I looked up the area and found one of my fav hotel chains has a location there.

A bit pricey but has a leisure centre so I would save there and within walking distance of the city, so I go to the booking page, won't let me check the refund policy until I give them my deets(ta1) read the t&c's and it wants the full payment now, but will let me cancel up to the night before. The foreseeable future is fluid so I decide against giving them my money over a month ahead of time, without the reassurance of a refund should things blow up(ta2)

Flipping raging at being expected to pay in advance over a month out, then I get an email reminding me that they are holding the rate and I should finish booking to get it and if there were any issues blah blah blah.

If I wasn't so worn out, I would book a Costa somewhere and middle-finger the lot of them back here.

In my new job ten weeks, kept the head down so far and progressing nicely. Since I have had fook all quality time with the new wife because I started literally five days after getting married (well had the medical but couldn't arrange anything thereafter as I waited on induction training etc.), am looking for one Monday off so we can go away for a couple of nights.

Asked the boss a few weeks ago, and he told me to remind him in September. September rolls around today, so I asked him again, but he is seemingly on his holidays next week, so I have to wait another week before I know whether I can definitely get the day off, by which time someone ahead of me on the seniority list might get the same day off.

I need a decision!

My mother never puts the lid back on anything properly. I, on the other hand have a tendency to pick things up by the lid. There's going to be a bleach incident one of these days and god help the woman if I happen to be wearing anything other than my grottiest "schlepping around the house" clothes when it does.

Someone hawked up "a greener" onto my car's windscreen this morning while it was parked on the main street. I was gone for about 40 minutes. Scumbag.

Or an autocratic manager who chairs a section meeting, goes through the agenda and minutes all his solutions before the floor is open. The meeting is then effectively about combating his predetermined decisions. In my working life I stopped attending these. What was the fkn point.

I just got alcohol-shamed by my sister-in-law's nephews 😭 They were in front of me at the till in Lidl there when I was buying beer and wine for a barbie I'm going to later and one of them goes "How much drink are you buying???"

Cheeky fcuker!

Not all varieties are invasive, though, they aren't all the same.

Went to get a sandwich in the supermarket. Three days ago they were €x. Now they've literally increased by ⅔. A different kind has doubled in price. Effing chancers.

My TA today - I’ve just remembered why I don’t go to the cinema very often:

1. it was like feeding time at the zoo, shovelling popcorn, rummaging around in packets, slurping drinks
2. My pet hate, sniffing - get a feckin tissue, its not difficult. I would have said something but it was a young lady so thought her mum sitting beside her would have set something.

Spoiler alert:

The Equaliser 3 is not as good as the first two

In addition….

whatever about popcorn, crisps and sweets….snacks in general if done quietly

But why the fûck did…hotdogs, fries / wedges, chicken strips etc become a thing in the actual cinemas ? Disgusting sitting there watching a film and a load of gimps fidgeting with and munching through enough assorted food to qualify as a dinner… the smell too… 😵‍💫 AND it’s mega expensive…. Would you not just watch the film with snacks and go sit down for a quality burger and fries somewhere afterwards….?

Much better value for money , higher degree of comfort to eat in…
