    Good morning everyone!

    On the couch here, waiting for my breakfast croissants to finish baking. The smell is lovely already 😋

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

    Breakfast eggs and tae. And umbrella academy.

    It's an Irish phenomenon called "back to school weather"

    You can almost guarantee great weather the first week of September.

    Another weather phenomenon is "leaving cert weather" usually the first two weeks of June are also glorious.

    Outside those 3 weeks all bets are off!

    Early start, boo.

    Out on the balcony again, enjoying the last of the warm weather. Was in the city today, Cork was an absolute madhouse…

    I was doing absolutely nothing but reading Boards when I came across Ella Fitzgerald at Montrerux ? . I’m not a huge jazz fan but she had some voice .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,032 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Damn You . Dark rum and coke /red 🫣🫣🫣

    Another stunning day here today.

    OH and myself had a long lie-in followed by a late afternoon/early evening drive up to beautiful Lough Ramor in County Cavan where I got some great shots - and then on to dinner in Mullingar. 🚗 😎☀️☀️

    I feel like I’m on I’m a celebrity . I had a drink of my overpriced Jack Daniel’s only to see several midges in it despite covering it

    Drinking cans of porter, just opened the second last one. I doubt I’ll leave the last one alone in the fridge.

    Two and a half hour drive home.😭 Social plans for tomorrow are cancelled. Just too exhausted. I know I moan about lack of hotel space. Sorry. But 30 hours in two days has flattened me.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,032 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    That brings me back to the 80’s and 90’s and safe sex ads . Great times

    I had a bottle of porter in the fridge for a few weeks, I thought of it today and was planning to open it during the Ireland match but didn't bother in the end but the thing is, I don't normally drink porter and haven't had one for years so I have no idea why I even bought it in the first place.

    Off to work, a new cruel and unusual shift, management of course 🙄 still, won't be doing too many



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Day 1,it kept him busy for 25 minutes. Day 2, he just sat beside until it melted and the rapidly ate the food. :):)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Back to work, it would be nice if it stayed this empty but unfortunately it's gonna be packed.

    I just finished watching Blade Runner ,brilliant film and lining up Blade Runner 2049 . I honestly didn’t get it the first time I saw it , I’m a bit slow like that 🤒

    Home!! Next weekend will be the last weekend on campsite for this year, will be strange not to be heading there every Friday but nice to be home too 😊



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,791 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Every weekend? I couldn't do it, my back gave a twinge just reading the post 🤣



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭thomil


    Homeside here, enjoying the last bits of peace and quiet before it’s back to the frontlines. Could do with a few more weeks, but I’m out of days off as well as sick days, and unfortunately, illness benefits wouldn’t even cover the rent, I ran the numbers. Still feeling good though.

    Also accidentally threw away the seal for the top of my smoothie maker, which means that I can’t use it anymore without flooding the countertop. Feeling like a right old moron… 🙈🙈🙈

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



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,366 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    Oh believe me, I always look forward to coming back to sleeping in my own bed 🤣 The auld bones are wailing constantly 🙈😊

    @thomil , glad you're feeling good and positive 🤗

    Almost any gasket dimensions can be ordered so don't lose hope

    Put a call out on boards. I'm sure someone has a smoothie makein the cupboard unused.

    Sehr gut 😁 - Germany, I presume?

    Deskside here, working away. Counting the weeks until my big trip to Norway…

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,032 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Feeling a bit sheepish after roaring to the people on Lingo that the answer was Opine and thinking I was so smug . It was Ozone. 😡



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭thomil


    Still deskside here, but the day has actually turned out better than expected. I might actually start enjoying work again if things keep going this way…

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Lamb. First time that I’ve seen it served like this.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed




  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,791 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    It looked like a shank with a dry roast. How was it?. Not crazy on the presentation



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭thomil


    Looked like Schweinshaxe, the German way to prepare ham hock, to me. I guess that, together with the Warsteiner, led me astray…

    That's my story and I'm sticking to it 😁

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,150 ✭✭✭✭suvigirl


    Last night in Poland, really enjoyed this trip and decided to take a few days off when I get back, so don't have to go straight back to work. Glad I decided to go away after all!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,032 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Reviewing my boards comments and realising I’m a contrary middle aged grump.

    All I seem to do is voice everything that annoys , and that’s EVERYTHING 😡

    You might be a grump, but you’re OUR grump! 😃

    Just getting ready to turn in here. Was watching the Apple keynote presenting the new iPhones earlier. I remember when these used to be actual live events where the presenters would sometimes go off-script or goof off a little. The company has definitely lost something in the years since I left…

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,281 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Watching comedy gold! Brendan Grace. Way ahead of the times and I often wonder if he knew.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    with lamb presented like ham, NA beer in large German glasses and lots of nubile women running around the pools in tiny swimwear, I’m getting totally confused :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,370 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    I haven’t seen anything about it that makes me grab my credit card, on the other hand just traded my Samsung s23u for s24u and US$570 in the USA. Samsung are offering a great trade in value and an additional $120 off.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭thomil


    I jumped ship to Samsung myself last October, going for a Z Flip 5 after ten years in the iPhone world. I had the same feeling watching the presentation yesterday, nothing really had that "wow" factor.

    Deskside here, 45 minutes to go before I can call it a day. Not a bad day, thankfully things seem to have calmed down…

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



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,791 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Hopefully the last 45 went ok.. I'm awaiting spuds. Perhaps runny eggs for top.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭thomil


    They went by without any issues. Chilling now, doing my usual journaling and scrolling through the most dangerous website in Ireland (IKEA)…

    Chilling on the sofa here. Busy day earlier and got quite a lot done.

    Thinking of tinkering around with my art stuff shortly... 🎨



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,281 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    I am just here. Nothing more really. But in the leaba. Supported Mrs G in yet more painting work today and what a job! She is brill. What a women! I literally feel ashamed by simply paying for materials.
