    So, as the title suggests, Ive a week off work. Ive taken it off to do "nothing" which obviously means something! Today I have sat out in the sun for a while, dropped the little one to her first day of school and collected her. Other than that, im pretty much bored. I have a little bit of tommorow covered when Ive to collect her from school, but for the rest of the day and week, pretty much nothing to do. Any suggestion will be welcomed, and at this point in time, Im thinking of an impromptu bar-be-que and alcohol party in my back garden. :D

    I also have no time to do Yore Ma nor welcome our new work-free colleagues!

    Who rents movies?

    I actually read the first as rent porn and my head almost exploded.

    Whatever about renting movies, you certainly never rent porn.

    Do nothing. Think how happy you'll be to be back at work on Monday monring!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Well I'm in the exact same boat as ya - only worse cause I got sick last Wednesday and was supposed to be flying out on holidays on Saturday and had to miss the flight. So now I'm off for a week when I should be in the sun somewhere else :( !!

    It's weird not having a hundred things demanding your time alright :rolleyes: Let me know what you come up with :)

    Go to a pub on your todd, grab yourself a newspaper and sit yourself up at the bar. Have 2 maybe 3 pints and relax. Can't beat it. Also to add to that if there's a bookie close by go in and throw 20 euro on this horse race this evening, Haajes in Hamilton 5.20.

    Porn is already downloaded. :D
    Played Fifa 08 for a few hours already. Ate a packet of skips, ate weetabix and then a tin of tuna. Ive kinda maxed out my "junk food" for the week already.

    Was thinking of going for a drive to portmarnock or something. I was already there 2 weekends ago though with the camera so had my fill of it. Might go the cinema, but I hate going to the cinema on my own.

    Its weird doing nothing. Keep having a desire to check my work mails!!

    EDIT: I like the fort idea. Keeps the beer cool in the garden too.

    Do something constructive.

    it probably seems like a boring idea, but; go for a run or go to the gym or for a swim. youll feel great afterwards and will find it much more difficult to feel guilty about sitting aroud on your ass if youve been to the gym earlier.

    itl take up some time, its benefitial to you, you might even like it. and what else are ya gonna do anyway???

    You'll also feel great after a ****, far less effort and less money than the gym. Also gives you a work out, who needs the gym.

    Get in the car, drive to Lough Dan, walk down to the lake, then climb back up. You'll be so sore for the rest of the week that you won't want to do anything at all - problem solved!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    I'm pretty much in the same boat... Booked the week before Electric Picnic off work to relax beforehand, then the week after it to recover... Unfortunately I pretty much exhausted all of my entertainments last week, so will have to find something to keep me amused for the rest of this week...

    Yeah, that's what they all say. Then you get the crying game scene.

    head to the gym, followed by a swim, then sauna and steamroom. Trust me you will feel great, then head home for a power **** while staring at your glorious muscles in the mirror, which i do.... every night..... in the nude

    I do the same, although since those conifers have started growing by your window, its harder for me to do it :D

    There really is a lot of porn/**** reference in this thread. The fact that Im AARRGGGGHHH's brother probably has something to do with it!

    screw the party.....

    build a pirate ship in your front garden and throw things at people as they walk by

    I think an Eddie "Rob-your-pockets" is in order. Im starving and could do with a cheezy chicken fillet.
