    Go to the Library & pick up a good book

    well you could walk outside the door, sit on a park bench, look at ducks. Then when it starts to rain you can drag yourself home to the damp, dark flat and look through the dirty lace curtains and the solid brick wall that is the flats next door.

    Sure the OP does this during the week. She is looking for something different to do at the weekend.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Go fishing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 617 ✭✭✭Demeyes


    Get some books, most people have a few they'll let you borrow or take if you don't want to join a library. You could start learning an instrument, harmonicas, whistles and ukelele's are cheap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,506 ✭✭✭lil'bug


    sleep thats my plan for the weekend

    Oh right. Well then, she could always spend the day cleaning the grime from the beige kitchen tiles with an old toothbrush and some spit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Go to the beach.

    Get up early and go to the Curragh and watch the horses working there in the morn. Alternatively splash out €15 and go to the races there tomorrow and marvel at those wonderful beasts (the horses, not the jockeys!)

    hi op, i know the feeling, im not getting paid till next friday, im absolutely smashed

    you never mentioned if you wanted to keep busy indoors or outdoors.

    my suggestions that wouldnt cost any money
    • Go window shopping
    • Go for a long walk if you have an I-pod
    • go visit friends
    • Watch a couple of dvds you havent watched in a while
    • Put on some chirpy music and clean your house
    • Read a good book
    • Read loads of threads and posts on boards.ie ;)
    all the above pass the time at least;)

    Enjoy your weekend:)

    Go to the Dublin museums.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,812 ✭✭✭✭sbsquarepants


    Masturbation helps pass the time.
    I believe there are sites on the internet which can teach you the basics:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Try learning a new language, download some audio tapes.

    And when is this weekend?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭sponsoredwalk


    Wake up early, download 700mb Ubuntu .iso
    While it's downloading go join the library & get "A Brief History of Time" by Steven Hawking.
    Come back, install ubuntu with the wubi program.
    When it's done (quick!) click yes to the computer to install all updates!
    Go to the beach with your ready made picnic & start reading the book & be
    blown away with learning why time slows down the faster you go,
    why space bends more around you the fatter you are & why you aren't
    in one single place with a single speed the smaller you are.
    Do this for as long as possible then take that 10 euro you know you should
    keep, buy beers & invite all your friends down to the beach where you
    were reading earlier & get drunk telling them all the crazy sh*t in that
    book :cool: They'll love you for it , I swear! :D

    Then when you have the hangover the next day you can play with ubuntu
    on your pc & get rosegarden to make free opera music ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,119 ✭✭✭Wagon


    why is everyone suggesting learning ubuntu? try Linux Mint instead. its better.

    or get a copy of windows 7. thats the best.

    watch all the new futurama or spooks, which is genius.

    I do believe that sex is often free - I am also reliably informed that it can be better than free for women if approached in a correct fashion. So you could kill two birds with one stone which would only mean having to be broke for one day and even then, at least you'd have something to do for that day.

    It may be the case, however that large African American gentlemen with flashy clothes and canes may have an impact on the amount of money this activity can generate for the lady in question. So you will have to make a judegement call on this matter.

    Regards

    T

    National Musuem on Kildare Street....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 374 ✭✭flag123


    How do you use webtexts??

    Whatever mobile network your on, you go to their website. e.g www.o2.ie if your with o2. When your on the site you will see webtext icon or whatever and click it. It may get you to register or make up a password for logging in but it takes only minute:)

    Weed my allotment in exchange for a tea and bickies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,381 ✭✭✭fakearms123


    It doesn't cost any money to stab and potentially kill a homeless man... Oh the rush is amazing, I stabbed a homeless man in the chest with a shovel and just ran, I ran so fast and for so long I couldnt breathe but when I stopped and hid behind that corner near the spar, it wasn't until that moment that I truly felt alive ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Wake up early, download 700mb Ubuntu .iso

    I failed to download that thing onto my netbook and pc!:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭blaze1

    you can entertain me :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭R0ot


    Where is the Scientology office again? That's a fun* and free experience taking their personality test.





    *Fun meaning "Fundamentally unimportant nagging"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Dance or go skinny dipping.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,811 ✭✭✭Gone Drinking


    I'm trying to save money so i was thinking about doing something similar to yourself (that is, do nothing) this weekend..

    However, after reading some of these suggestions, i think im going to break into my savings. Some of the ideas here would have me trying to top myself!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,349 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Stay in bed!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭sponsoredwalk


    I failed to download that thing onto my netbook and pc!:(

    1: What bit is my pc, 32 bit or 64 bit?
    link

    2: Download ubuntu
    link
    Make sure you don't pause the download or let your internet connection stop!
    It'll break the whole thing & you'll have to start again :(

    3: Download WUBI
    link
    Put this program in the same folder as the big 700mb .iso file!

    4: Check the 700mb .iso file to make sure it isn't broken!
    link
    Just download winmd5sum & follow the next 5 steps.

    5: Open wubi, put ubuntu on whatever disk on your pc that has lots of
    space, & give Ubuntu plenty of space too!

    6: Enjoy! :D
