Glad you didn't get washed away @thomil. Let's hope Sephers and Duvet are ok too.

That's Monday over, I'm considering fried egg, chips and beans for dinner. 🍟🍳

One of the advantages of living on a hill, I guess 😁

I hope our favourite feline and Duvet are high and dry as well. Might be worth stocking up on sandbags down here though. Looks like we might crack 40mm of rainfall down here in Cork on Wednesday. That's another 6mm more than what came down on Sunday, which doesn't bode well. I wonder whether we'll have kayaks on Oliver Plunkett Street again? 🤔

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 6:13pm

Trundle time approaches, apparently traffic is disastrous, yay!

17-10-2022 6:15pm

Surely Wednesday can't be worse than yesterday, unbelievable wind and rain, flooding was crazy. There was nothing else to do except stay warm and very hydrated, I ended up taking a half day today, need about a weeks sleep.

Years ago, my neighbour was a student renting on western road. One morning she got up to find her car was submerged after a heavy night of rainfall 😏

Stay high, Corkonians 😘

@[Deleted User] I hope the hangover wasn't too bad.

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 6:49pm

It's pretty calm over here for now at least.

Western Road can definitely turn into Western Approaches at times, and Wednesday might well be such a time.

(For those without a naval affliction, Western Approaches refers to the sea lanes from the Atlantic past Ireland to the ports on the west coast of England, like Liverpool. Much of the Battle of the Atlantic in WW2 took place in that area and I don’t think I need to tell you about the sea conditions you can encounter there)

Sick as a small hospital here, had to take a half day at work and I am now welded to the bed watching MAFS ( I blame duvet) 😂

No rain here so far

Jordan 199 · 17-10-2022 8:23pm

Took a trip to The Lough this evening. It was lovely there.

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 8:28pm

Angrily hammering out emails.

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 10:03pm

This place more like a hospital ward recently 🤣

thomil · 17-10-2022 10:06pm

I have no idea what you mean *looks down at freshly bandaged leg* 😶

Hope everyone gets better soon. Keeping my fingers crossed for y’all!

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 10:07pm

I used to notice that there was always a hayp of people on crutches or in casts at the same time when i was younger, wonder what that was about.

SuperBowserWorld · 17-10-2022 10:08pm

Free belly rubs to cheer everyone up !

This is his "Draw me like one of your French girls" pose 😂

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 10:10pm

That's a cat that's beautiful and knows it, i would be afraid of giving belly rubs though, claws sometimes come out to play!.

thomil · 17-10-2022 10:15pm

Aaaawwww 😍😍

What a cutie, but I’d be worried about my hands being torn to shreds if I tried it. Bad experiences with the two cats we had when I was a child

@Gremlinertia Sounds like a GAA or soccer match that got out of hand. Back in Germany, I‘d usually notice an increase in black eyes, bruises or arms in slings after the local Volksfest (I think the best translation is carnival, but with loads of beer) 🎡🎠🍻🍻 Think of those things like a scaled down Oktoberfest.

SuperBowserWorld · 17-10-2022 10:15pm

1 belly rub. Slowly and very carefully 😀

Cat would know you're afraid and play with you. I love them all the same..

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 10:19pm

@thomil i think it's a psychological trick where once you notice one thing you keep seeing the same thing. Can't think of the term..

thomil · 17-10-2022 10:24pm

I think you mean frequency bias. Had to google that myself.

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 10:26pm

That's the one. Our devious little minds playing tricks on us

17-10-2022 11:00pm

He's a beautiful cat 🐈

Poochie05 · 17-10-2022 11:08pm

Thank feck Monday is over, things can only get better! 😂 you're welcome for the ear worm 😉

Gremlinertia · 17-10-2022 11:15pm

It's frozzlin' out, my hat was not enough for a few minutes, pay attention grem!.

Purple Mountain · 17-10-2022 11:55pm

I saw something on Instagram today that would fit nicely into the thread today, but can I find it now?! No.

Basically it was the picture of a hand in absolute bits from scratches and a cute looking cat near the hand.

The caption was "this is the only abusive relationship I'm prepared to put up with." 😆

Gremlinertia · 18-10-2022 12:00am

Oh i had those hands a lot when i was young, don't regret a minute, little clingons tearing (literally) up my legs 😍

I don't know where we're going, but we know where we are? (Part whatever)
