Gotta drag Myself outta bed as i need to sleep again in the afternoon. I hate nights and I really hate nights with massive thunderstorms and rain, too much unpredictability. Waiting patiently for the dreaded summer temperatures of 50 degrees and clear blue skies.

Of course, it's brilliant 😂

Joe Biden hysteria!! The past few days you can't get away from it. Really think RTE are going overboard with the exposure. It's like the Queen's funeral.

To be fair , I'm not into the royal family at all....well I enjoy their scandals 😂🤣

However the Queens funeral is probably a once in a lifetime event (though I'd say we'll have a kings one in the not so distant future) so I didn't mind the coverage of that at all.

Presidents are replaced every 4/8 years. Meh to watching his every movement.

I did post in what I thought was current affairs giving out about the coverage but unfortunately it was the aviation one. I wouldn't say the airplane ethusiasts were impressed with me.

Gremlinertia · 14-04-2023 4:55pm

Down the local for a rare Friday beverage, twas a taxing 24 hours so I earned this 😂 and I'll keep telling myself that..

Gremlinertia · 14-04-2023 10:09pm

Made dinner, Mrs G conked out so it went down well I think!

Sardonicat · 14-04-2023 10:26pm

Had my first prescribed mental health walk along the beach on the Maherees tonight. Beautiful, soothing and life affirming.

Day by day, step by step. Have a good weekend, wherers.

JupiterKid · 14-04-2023 10:48pm

Watching the President Joe Biden shindig and speech in Ballina. Didn’t realise RTÉ was making his visit into a full on show of programmes!

Apparently the Brits are rather miffed over Biden being in Ireland for 4 days and less than 24 hours in the North. 🙄🙄😁

Duvet Day · 14-04-2023 11:00pm

Very difficult weekend for ridiculous reasons, get dafuq over it Duvet.

Purple Mountain · 15-04-2023 12:48am

Sounds like a lot of you need some tlc tonight.

Hugs to everyone.

Still up here. Must admit, I was engrossed in the Biden coverage.

I'm a fiend like that. I watched the Queen's funeral extrnsively too.

Love all the ceremony 😁

Autosport · 15-04-2023 10:08am

Near the sea maybe?

CalMac ferry from Oban to Mull 🚢

cj maxx · 15-04-2023 5:04pm

Watching Derry v Fermanagh . I was flicking through the tv guide looking for something to watch . I didn’t even know the Ulster Championship had started !

Tomorrow it’s the All Ireland champions v Tyrone 😎😎

Just back from a trip to Cork. Parents were 60 years married today and we had a lovely meal with them and my siblings and their families ( even though half of them hate each other but that's irish families 😁😁)....

wildwillow · 15-04-2023 9:15pm

Oh for a bit of sense. I spent far too long working in the garden today and know I’ll pay for it.

Need to remind myself how very old these bones are. But I did a great job weeding and planting.

Hot bath and bed await.

Out for dinner in lovely Leixlip Manor with my OH - beautiful place! 💕

Watching Abyss ,the rise and fall of the nazi's . Its amazing how he completely outflanked the German political elite of the time . He's been shown to be a very astute politician though, obviously an evil bastard

Trying to work my way through 101 online training modules, it’s funny how one weeks in class training on companies dime, has evolved into about 50 hours of online training on my time :):)

smurfjed · 16-04-2023 6:22am

Was watching videos last night of the Airbus A330 aircraft burning in Khartoum, and seeing pictures of some disheveled looking colleagues dumped in the airport. They are going to have a hard time getting back.

‘Looking at Sudan, it’s a country that appears to have nothing, quite amazing that people continuously fight over that nothingness.

Just catching up on that, frightening stuff. I hope they make their way out ok..

Elyvande · 16-04-2023 4:44pm

Afternoon everyone. I haven't been on Boards and this parish for the longest time. Lots of your news to catch up on. I hadn't been too well and work place shenanigans ongoing.... It is so toxic.

Anyway I am enjoying the weather today and spring giving me a bit of pep. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday....

Good to see you, don't be a stranger, we don't bite unless specifically requested with appropriate permission and health and safety forms in triplicate to the correct offices

Elyvande · 16-04-2023 4:53pm

@Gremlinertia Haha even if you bite that would be better than work..... Did your new job come through Grem? Good things happen to nice people...

Autosport · 16-04-2023 5:13pm

A few steps down the ladder but I should catch and surpass within two years. Mrs G is indeed happy.

Anyway, barring work crap how are you?

JupiterKid · 16-04-2023 6:34pm

Chilling at home on this beautiful sunny Spring evening after a lovely afternoon in Farmleigh meeting up with my best pal (who lives nearby) and his dear mam who I hadn’t seen since Covid started and was looking very well. 🌳 🌲

Gremlinertia · 16-04-2023 7:09pm

Gosh that looks beautiful Jupiter

Duvet Day · 16-04-2023 8:22pm

A dull and misty day here today, thought we were going to have a warm, sunny one. Dragged ourselves out for a walk but dressing gown and hot water bottle time now, can't stop eating all day, would love chipper but too tired to go out again.....Monday again tomorrow. F U lotto gods.

thomil · 16-04-2023 10:36pm

Lovely pics, Jupiter. On first reading I actually thought "that's a nice house he's got there".

Grey and dull down here today, but surprisingly mild. Was out nd about in town, got myself a new pair of shoes. Homeside now, winding down and getting ready for another manic work week.

Oh, and just got an invite to my twenty-year school reunion!

cj maxx · 16-04-2023 11:02pm

Im after sending a mildly worded PM and await the response .if I don’t get a chance I hope all ‘Wherers have good health and happiness .

Sardonicat · 16-04-2023 11:50pm

Hope all is well with you CJ? Please don't be a stranger.

Good morning everyone 🙂

Hope everything's okay, cj. Let me know if there's anything, or anyone, us wherers can take care of for you. I hear Mam and a few others have some experience in that regard 😉

Deskside in the office here. We have some bigwigs over from HQ so it's currently mandatory work from the office time for everyone. Don't mind really, I like our office.

Autosport · 17-04-2023 11:22am

Taking it easy in work today 😂😂

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