    First day back at work for 3 weeks. Had the crap kicked out of me all night by a 3 year old girl so barely got a wink of sleep, missed my train by 30 secs and the office is f f f freezing.

    Other than that everything is peachy

    All good so far. Not back in the office until Monday and the work mobile has been turned off since the 24th, kinda dreading to turn it back on tbh.

    But had a decent relaxing Xmas with no major drama so it shouldn't be too much of a shock to the system to get back to a normal routine and a dry January. Even though I took it handy, a fair few drinks were consumed so my liver and wallet will be thankful.

    Any resolutions broken yet guys?

    Trying to kick this depression that's come into the picture (not seasonal related). Not back until Monday, but I had a look at work's Twitter anyway.

    The photos from the fires in Australia are staggering.

    Must say I always find Christmas unbelievably hectic - zero chance to relax at all between kids, relations etc. Am usually glad to go back to work as it's a bloody break! Was due to go back yesterday but didn't bother in the end - stepping in Monday instead. Was due to start off easy with a short week to go to a gig in London next Friday but it's been cancelled - probably a good thing after all the drink over Christmas......

    You're automatically in the running for uncle of the year so!
    First seen slipknot in Cardiff a good 15yrs ago. On me tobler in the mosh pit. Absolutely mayhem. Slayer hatebreed and mastodon all on the lineup. What a night.
    Also seen em support Metallica a few years back. Sound was rubbish though.
    And again with korn 5yrs ago. But I was very, very drunk!
    Ao now it's time to hang up the oul boots and go to see em sitting down. Thst said I'll hear People =Shyt and probably fall straight off the balcony!

    I remember the gig in 2015, being stuck in the seats, it was the weirdest experience I'd had at a gig.

    Coincidentally, Slipknot are coming back to Dublin 5 years to the day since they were last here.

    I brought him to Metallica in Twickenham last year which was his first ever concert and we are going to Ozzy in London in October too (assuming the gig finally goes ahead).

    Cahersiveen in Kerry is sometimes referred to as Cahersiberia so this is somewhat accurate

    Heard England lost but actually never heard about Ireland!!! Did we win?

    Just checked. Yay go us

    How do you get a bonus point? England and Scotland both got one but Ireland or France didn't. Or did they get 1 and Wales got 2??

    I've to be careful in work as 1 of the lads represented England in the ruggers. He'll see through my BS!
    I think you'd need a degree in maths to figure out the bonus points system.
    But woo we won!
