    Put it in the laundry basket. He'll never look in there.

    Funny you should say that:D Said laundry basket is on top of his chest of drawers and yet some how or other things just don't seem to find there way into it.

    A Christmas present I ordered for Mr Pumpkinseeds is in a much bigger box than anticipated, now I'm going to have to be very creative finding somewhere to hide it.

    If he's anything like Mr Not So Onrale, point to the box, tell him you need him to sort it/put it in the attic/assemble it, and then it should magically become invisible only to be seen by the female eye. And it should go untouched until at least June.

    God, don't even talk about assembling things. The Christmas tree is going up this weekend and it stresses him out. I usually ply him with booze before, during and afterwards.:D

    Or you could tell him it's a box of your annual bulk supply of feminine hygiene products. That would not be touched.

    I'm just going to take this out of context...

    Tell me this, and tell me no more - what does the word "Onrale" mean?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 405 ✭✭danrua01


    TA: you're in Tesco/Sainsbury's/etc., a few items in your hand, you go to the self checkout and there's someone pushing a trolley full of stuff through.

    That's not what those are for!

    People gabbing at me about things that aren't my fault.

    Well Jim it started off as "unreal" but I am a biffo, and things escalate fairly lively there, so it's not unreal anymore, it's onrale. On rail, like a train

    I understand completely. We're from Chounty Limerigg, junowhattamane?? :D

    The aul dear next door does my head in. Most days she does multiple circuits of the block on her wheeled mobility walker, which is a fairly recent thing since Summer, I thought she'd be pushing up daisies by this stage. Anyway, every time she passes our house she pauses to have a glare at the living room window, no idea why she does this. Our house is spotless and our garden is nice, well nicer than theirs. I think it's probably because her daughter effs and blinds at our cats sitting on the dividing wall, and in turn I eff and blind at the daughter.

    Is that not just for Cork like?

    Correct. "junowhattamane??" is syntactically and functionally equivalent to "like", like. :D

    I often drive through there. Never had Hospital food or an overnight stay in Hospital though. :D

    Back to annoyances: I ordered a jacket online and had it shipped to ParcelMotel. I figured it would be a small, soft package and could be folded to fit in the bigger lockers PM have.

    PM tell me the package is oversize - which doesn't help my pre-existing insecurities about my weight :pac: - and now I've to go to the depot to pick it up. I can't wait to see it. It must be a cardboard box cut in jacket shape.... with sleeves and all.... :rolleyes:

    I've got an outpatient appointment there the week before Christmas, I'm hoping the bus won't be as bad then as it was at the same time last year.:eek: The bus from the hospital to the city centre was jammed with junkies, weirdos and alcoholics. I thought Mr Pumpkinseeds was going to lose the plot. I won't bring him this time.

    So I ordered one of one shoe hanging things for the back of the door online. Giant box arrived, I'm thinking what the hell did I order?

    Opened it to find 6 of the things in there! Double checked my order, only paid for 1. What the hell am I gonna do with 5 of the things now?

    Sounds like it came as a surprise!

    'guess what?'
    'what?'
    'you're 40 today'
    '....fcuk......'

    Going for lunch, being charged a service charge, and only noticing after I left a tip

    When people say"surgery" when they mean "operation". Brek talking to some spanner on Mooney.

    But happens all too often recently...
