    So other counties have their own chat / waffle threads - So can Wexford.

    This would be along the theme of '' sunny spells and scattered showers ''

    Say whats on your mind .................


    For me , its 2 weeks holidays starting tomorrow evening ......away from the 9-5 at last ........Wahaaaaaaaaaayyyy

    On the other hand , I've looked at the forecast for the next week and its nothing but rain.......rain .........rain .

    So what are the positives and negatives in your daily life .

    Polo at Bunclody http://www.poloclubbunclody.com/ by any chance?

    As for me, I was watching this bright and early this morning in an establishment that shall remain nameless.

    Rugby, especially New Zealand rugby and a small amount of alcohol helps maintain what's left of my diminishing grip on reality. Ireland, and County Wexford in particular, is wearing me down and I can't see a way out - yet. Is that general enough waffle or too much? :D

    It was a polocross international between Ireland and South Africa.

    The South Africans were staying at the Horse and Hound.

    Spent a lovely afternoon yesterday on the slopes of Sliabh Coillte .

    Then on the way home a black cat ran across the road in front of us.

    There was nothing I could do , and I think the cat used its 9 lives at that moment .

    Its recorded on my car-cam , but not so sure if I could post it here .


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,069 ✭✭✭Tzar Chasm


    PM me the video, I Hate cats, that should cheer me right up:p

    @somegirl, yeah we're getting a fair few customers through, altho we'd always like more, feel free to drop in and spend some money We have 2 shops since last week one is a furniture warehouse and one Euro shop, the other oneis the one I kitted out, its much more of a retail shop and we are very Brand discriminatory about what gets to go out fir sale.

    if anyone wants to volunteer a few hours of their week please come in and see me I'll be the stressed out bloke behind the counter in the nice shop trying to work out a roster for volunteers

    Indeed , bought a dash-cam on eBay for around €25 ....Use it a lot especially on long trips.

    Does'nt have infra-red though , so of no use at night .

    Have you ever walked along a foot path and wondered to yourself -

    What would happen if you adopted the ignorant stance of the person approaching you, who seems completley oblivious to your existence and make no effort to step to one side to allow you both to pass with ease?

    What about the people who stand chatting in the middle of the pavement and force you to step into the road to get past.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,069 ✭✭✭Tzar Chasm


    I think that's a good time to use the AH policy
    Blast them with piss :D

    Whatever about people standing talkin, what about ignorant cuts who stop their cars in the road for a chat


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,893 ✭✭✭allthedoyles
