    Just having a browse as I do most Sundays and I have noticed a pattern !

    PI is always busy on a Sunday !

    What the hell is it about Sundays, it always seems to bring people down. Mad !

    Im feeling really grumpy myself for no apparent reason.

    Does anyone like Sundays ? :(

    There should be apathetic smiley.

    I was on about the increase in PI activity more than your own grumpiness.

    Also:
    'Sunday Bloody Sunday'. What a great song. It really encapsulates the frustration of a Sunday, doesn't it? You wake up in the morning, you've got to read all the Sunday papers, the kids are running round, you've got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you think "Sunday, bloody Sunday!".

    Sunday sucks if you live in a seaside town that they forgot to close down.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭stupidusername


    it's a mixture I think. hangovers, post drink lows, stupid drunken mistakes, the calm slow feeling of the day in general, and the looming return to work.

    Your probably right.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 225 ✭✭Angelandie


    I love Sundays but that's coz it's my "Saturday" - I work in a hotel, so we generally party on Sundays! I laze the day away then dress up and go out and party :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    Sunday is always a variation of popping into boards while I have a roast dinner on the go ( it's just about done now ;)) or somebody will suggest going out for a pub lunch , which has been hapenning more of late but not today .

    Evenings is usually watching something decent on tv (not x-factor ) which is why I love catch up on demand tv ie , BBC /ITV/ C4 Iplayer and I can also catch up on the LLS /prime time etc on RTE player to so there is so much on offer away from the mainstream tv crap :)

    I've posted this before,but it sums up Sundays perfectly:
    In the end, it was the Sunday afternoons he couldn't cope with, and that terrible listlessness that starts to set in about 2:55, when you know you've taken all the baths that you can usefully take that day, that however hard you stare at any given paragraph in the newspaper you will never actually read it, or use the revolutionary new pruning technique it describes, and that as you stare at the clock the hands will move relentlessly on to four o'clock, and you will enter the long dark teatime of the soul.

    I quite like Sundays. Good lazy day, catch up on sleep. Always have a nice dinner too.

    You should indulge yourself in one soon :) You can also buy some ready to go sunday roast from some supermarkets if ya don't feel like cooking ,it probably won't taste the same but it might give you that ' it's sunday feel' .

    I hated Sunday when I was a kid. As the day progressed Monday and another week of misery was edging ever closer. When this and this came on television I would get really depressed.

    Yup, i hate sundays. I actually have gotten to the sad stage where i plan my sunday on a tuesday/wednesday. It seems to be the longest day and most boring day of the week but only if you let it.;)

    Thought it was recently locked and you needed to gain access to it? I remember it being public for a while a few years ago.

    I still don't have access to ranting and raving. Does that even exist any more?

    That may have been the case back in 1981 but surely in an age when just about everything is open Sunday is what you make it (although getting kicked out of a "24 hour" supermarket at 18:00 is something of a lingering pain in the hole) ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    A lot of great cafes are closed though.

    In the old days you could always look forward to Howard's Way on Sunday evenings

    Didn't that sink without a trace or was that the other 'set at sea ' one ? ?
