    I have a can of de ice, it's in the cupboard under the sink ☺️, I just throw a kettle of warm water on it, it's quicker.

    Enjoy the date, I'd need the money in the bank before any shenanigans occur .😛

    This ! I used to always put an old bathtowel on the windscreen , clear screen when you take it off .

    (Says she who realised when typing that her windscreen is frozen over 🙈)



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    And poor lil ould me with no car!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,975 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    Sometimes I think you're better off Grem , especially if you're in an area that has a good bus service .



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    To be fair the majority of the time i know i'm better off but the impossibility of going home and the bad weather commutes can piss me right off.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,975 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    That's a fair point , and understandably frustrating and annoying too .



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Pain has me a bit cranky oops



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,975 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    You're not cranky Grem , it must be a lot to deal with on a daily basis , so it's good to be able to offload here if you wish to .

    Food porn....perfectly cooked onion rings , garlic sauce ....big pot of spuds and a mug of tea for you!



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Just had a lovely fresh bag of tayto there with some tea. I do have mash and burgers for dinner later 😊



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,281 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Morning Grem, made some Nespresso here if you want some?

    Day 21 of this quarantine, I’m so glad that people around here are able to count to 14 :)

    Deskside, grabbing some lunch shortly with colleagues in the canteen before two more classes to give this afternoon.

    Busy, busy...

    Hump day tomorrow , tf, a long tiring stressful day and a very unexpected and sad removal after work, it's not like I need an excuse but I'm just thrown on the couch with a refreshment, enjoy every day lads.



  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I didn't taste one thing of my dinner............. A bad sign?????!!!!!



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Maybe it was just bland bubbly??🤞

    I think it's going to be a stressful winter of playing 'is it a cold or covid' guessing game..

    🤔😂😂

    I got the Johnson vaccine, from what I'm hearing/ reading I'm probably on a par with an unvaccinated person now, ffs, is there any end to it, I've only 2 nights planned before Christmas, a group of 4 and another of 8, will they go ahead, should they go ahead, is it even worth it? I think everyone is just exhausted from it all, I'm just looking forward to being off for a week, sleeping, eating and drinking from the comfort and safety of my own couch. ☺️



  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I know! I'm in charge of the Christmas party for work, and it's early! 1st December, but can't get people to definitely commit!

    I would prefer if they said they want to cancel.....venue wants a deposit this week. Stress!



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    We've a deposit paid for the group of 8 bubbly, was originally 10 people, totally understand why 2 have dropped out and definitely expect more also, it's only drinks and finger food so small deposit, I'd be very wary of paying anything big tbh, money up first .

    I've put the heating on upstairs, need to haul myself for a shower as the mornings are too cold, no fecking energy, can't move.



  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yeah, I'm happy enough that if deposit is paid, and something happens that stops the party, most people will go in January 🙏🙏



  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I think everyone is mad for a night out ( early night now!😂)

    And we work together, basically a 'pod' but we need to be mindful of a breakout and general public thoughts!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    I’m a celeb is making me laugh, not a hope I’d do half of those trials 😄



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,203 ✭✭✭Samsgirl


    Took my Mam for what we hope is her last chemo today. Been a strange few months alright now with appointments and consultants all over the place.

    I’m free, back to my office.


    Admittedly, around here definition of freedom means that I’m now in a different hotel, again in quarantine but allowed to work. 2-3 weeks here :):)



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia

  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 12,901 Mod ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Deskside working away at work - a bit milder out there today than yesterday which was Arctic.

    I am also completely sick to my back teeth with Covid. It just seems never ending...

    Meeting a friend for late lunch at 2pm.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Going for a pint later. Need the Guinness for strength.. Ahem..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,281 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Have one, or make it 5 for me :)

    sitting on my new balcony in a rocking chair watching as the sun sets over this city.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Taking a sneaky break in the coalface 😄 No one is gonna find me 😉😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,281 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    This is hotel California, you can check in but never know when to leave :):)



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,519 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Bring an extra pair of shoes to work, put them down in a pair in the toilet cubicle with you, remain silent.. No one will disturb guaranteed 🤣😂
