    I think that’s nori, Japanese dried seaweed sheets. Used with the likes of sushi, onigiri or, in this case, ramen 🍜

    Homeside here, out-of-office reply turned on and laptop closed and three days of time off coming up. Boy do I need it, the only reason I’m not running on fumes is because I don’t have any fumes left…

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    Fantastic stuff well done JK 👊 hope you're feeling somewhat better.

    I was actually just looking at old retro lego sets, would love to get my hands on some of the old space sets from the 90's, all very expensive though.

    Deskside.

    Watching BraveHeart with a beer , and getting very anti English . If I met an English man after watching In the name of the father I would have killed them . I’m planning a trip to England soon so no more beer 😷

    @thomil keep the phone and laptop off for the weekend and make the most of it. Hope the weather cooperates.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭SuperBowserWorld


    Dry and cold. Perfect weather for doing some remedial gardening. AKA do the **** that should have been done ages ago.

    Awake too early 🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭SuperBowserWorld


    Took dog for walk, did some cleaning up in the garden, and went for a run. Have this strange FOMO on AC/DC even though I only know one of their songs! Think it's cause the sun is out and it's warm and not lashing rain.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,981 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    CastleComer discovery park . Or rather, out of it now and getting chips from a chip van, old school 😁

    Oh mam! Now I'm craving chips

    Mrs G cooking later. She finally gets to use her potato ricer, I'm going to turn into a feckin spud now 🤣



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,981 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    They were delicious, and a huge bag tbh, could only eat half!

    Just out of bed , either feast or famine sleep wise.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,427 ✭✭✭thomil


    Sofaside, watching The West Wing for the first time.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    Watching the Dublin horse show all this weekend and Ireland are doing well. The atmosphere looked brilliant for young and old at the Puissance today. But the jump is far too high and I don't think it's right.

    Also the joint Great Britain winner was awful. He was on his phone and had only met his horse the day before and clearly didn't care.

    Im only getting to the leaba after a long day. I had to do my own backup of footage when I got home. Yet more new work practices to save money for others to make them richer. But I did have a nice dinner in a nice hotel. I'm not sure what day it is!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,290 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    My father was involved in the catering there, so i spent every summer watching the show, but never actually got involved with horses. But they were fun memories.

    Was an Irish invention during the famine, when all the potatoes were rotten, to turn rice into potatoes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,010 ✭✭✭Princess Calla


    I think it's abit like a garlic press but bigger and for potatoes, so you pop your potato into the holder and squeeze and it comes out kinda like spaghetti.

    I'm not really sure of the point of them tbh, but there's members in my family that love them



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭wildwillow


    Potato ricer gives a lump free potato mash for the likes of duchess potatoes where you use a piping bag.

    I use one for juicing cooked fruits, e.g. raspberries and gooseberries, when I want to make a sorbet. Quicker than pushing through a sieve but not as efficient as a proper juicer.

    Mrs G detests lumpy mash, I can make it but she invariably manages to get lumps in hers, it is indeed like a garlic press just larger



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,226 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    A good masher sorts lumpy mash with milk and butter. Mine was Homestore and More. In the leaba. Exhausted. Did the gardens today. All before the rain.

    She's got not a lot of upper body strength unfortunately

    Mayhem at work and I volunteered for it so I can't complain



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,678 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Watching Psycho , I love it when I find an old film that interests me

    A great old movie it is, line up Rear View Window next



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,290 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    nice relaxing morning on my balcony, one of these I might actually do some work :)

    so so true, but not my fault that all our customers take long summer holidays :)


    Was using ChatGPT to create a staff roster for next month, it’s a great tool but the amount of errors that it made was substantial, I had to keep getting it to add numbers correctly and we are only talking about 12 people. Somehow it hasn’t convinced me that AI is as fearful as they say in relation to replacing jobs.

    A day off. Looks like rain is incoming. At least the grass is cut .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,226 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    The cat has the right idea.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭SuperBowserWorld


    Vertigo is an excellent movie. I used to think those old movies had terrible colour saturation but it was just the TV's we had. If you can watch them in HD and on an OLED screen they look beautiful.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭SuperBowserWorld


    It's like October today.

    I can't believe it's nearly 4.30pm, where did the day go ?

    Oh yeah, meetings and boards.ie



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,266 ✭✭✭Poochie05


    Cats always have the right idea!

    I've just woken up myself, didn't sleep well last night so went for a nap too!

    Forgot to mention that I had a dream the other night that I'd ordered chips in a takeaway and the order was never completed. When I had to ask at the counter they went rummaging in loads of bags of chips but there was none for me. That's what happens when you leave chips on the table@Mam of 4

    And I can't delete this mention here on my mobile ... For a completely different person maybe

    @Mamof4



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 288 ✭✭mehico


    I have never seen Vertigo and need to sit down and watch it someday. I watched Rear Window a while back and really enjoyed the film and would recommend it, (it was released in 1954!).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,981 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    In your dream I probably had received your portion of chips too 🙈🤣

    Drove home late last night deliberately, just to see the view of the Electric Picnic layout from the Windy Gap . It was worth it, a blaze of lights and colours, it was fab . Son said it was like looking at Las Vegas or somewhere!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,678 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Watching Scam Intercepters . Basically it’s terrifying how much they know about you .

    Tae, leftover Indian, some med drama craic and shortly an early night.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 12,914 Mod ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Bedside here in hospital, will be off to sleep by midnight which is very early for a night owl like myself.

    Really got huge help here over the past 2 and a half weeks and I will be discharged on Thursday. 😊 I will be attending the day clinic for a couple more weeks.

    Off to a funeral tomorrow - another dear friend's mother has passed away. 2024 really has been a year of huge personal loss for myself and quite a few friends.

    Listening to my iPad. 🎧🌈



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,321 ✭✭✭✭Purple Mountain


    Oh wow that sounds awesome 👌 Could you hear the music?

    Were cars stopped up to take in the view?

    The weather looked idyllic for it. The photos looked great but it's still my idea of purgatory 😆

    Day festivals, no problem but slumming it overnight in a field under a canvas roof and hovering my bum cheeks over a portapotty after 3 days of constant abusing, absolutely no thank you sir!

    I went to sleep too early 😒 Both my bladder and Mrs Supermoon have woken me.

    I just finished reading a new book called Keanu Reeves is Not in Love With You. It's about online romance scams.

    The author engages with them for a few weeks to expose them while taking the absolute piss out of them, thus proving they're either bots or talking to so many people simultaneously and with such pigin English that they don't notice the horse manure she's feeding them.

    Unfortunately there are still a portion of people who will get conned by those scrote bags and often these are people who think it could never happen to them 😌

    But for the record, if I PM any of you for the price of getting my roots done or a shellac, it is an emergency and I am genuine 🤣

    The Windy Gap isn't a road where you can pull in , it's very twisty/turny, it's such a pity though. Believe it or not, we heard NO music, not even driving through Stradbally town 😳 really weird...
