    Double parking on the main street. Gee it's raining: wouldn't do if you got wet!

    It rains acid in Ireland, did you not know? Hysterical idiots that's what we are, running around in a panic every time the sky opens, as if the stuff is going to melt our skin. Oh my gawd is it raining? Oh no does anyone have an umbrella? I can't belive it's raining! Looks like it's down for the day!

    Irish people - who have lived in Ireland all their lives - surprised - when Irish weather - is Irish ....How very...Irish!

    I keep mini-umbrellas in three of the four door-pockets in my car. I got the idea from the built-in John Steed-style umbrella pockets in the doors of the Rolls-Royce Phantom. You'd be surprised how well it works when it's raining! :D

    I've worked here two months and I've never brought my lunch in once. I say no. And she tuts at me. Full on, proper "tsks" me.

    I'd like to see her try that when you have your piglet!

    Likewise people who feel obliged to comment on the weather every day. "Sheets of rain here today" "a gale blowing here" "frost and a clear sky today". Yes we know. There's weather here too. Yes, we saw/heard the forecast too. Yes, that's the weather we get here OK.

    Is it a TA for you if someone tells you what is going to happen in BB?

    We've had a foster dog since before Christmas. We are only able to foster over Christmas and a bit in the summer and it is now time for her to go. The rescue she is with mostly rehome in the UK so she is off on the ferry this evening and she will stay in their care until she finds a home. She is the most gentle, sweet and undemanding older whippet x. I am an emotional wreck and dreading her leaving :(:(

    Even though we really can't have a third dog right now I caved last night and begged my OH if we could keep her but he's having none of it and in fairness he is right, but I am still more than trivially annoyed at him for saying no! :mad:

    It can feel awful to let a foster go, but just remember that you've done your bit for her and allowing her to move on and find her forever home means that you will have the space to help other dogs.:)

    I envy you, I wish I was watching it for the first time, it just keeps getting better. Only program to better it (IMO) was The Sopranos.

    No cause I went along and looked up all the spoilers season by season because it was taking too long to watch so now I know what's going to happen but I'm watching anyway

    And in the Skoda Superb, "and the slot is angled, to allow rain water to drain out of the door" per the brochure.....I like that attention to detail;)

    ...and onto the lower B-pillar and rocker panel, while the door is closed. The Rolls has ducting and a hose that drains externally, and is also heated. :D

    I am coming in to work the other morning and I spot a guy getting out of his car which was in a disabled only spot. I mentioned this to him, and he replied with "oh, I didn't realise" (He knew well where he was parked) so I say "ah anyone can make a mistake"...and stand there, he looks up and down and says "Sure I will only be a while.."

    Wanker!!

    That really annoys me. :mad:

    People on TV quiz shows who haven't a clue about anything. Why bring such embarrassment on yourself?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    People who comment on soft news stories.
    "Why is this in the news when *insert headline story* is happening"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,373 ✭✭✭selous


    Once upon a time it was only attached to Neighbours and Home and Away, but now every soap, Irish and U.K has it, Mate, aww Mate, C'mon Mate, It seriously Irk's, sorry T.A's me, put it back where it belongs, Southern Hemisphere,

    The fact that 9 times out of 10 I cannot drink anything without spilling it on myself. Just now, drinking a glass of cold OJ I missed my mouth again and sloshed it down my top :(

    Show is half an hour long and less than 10 minutes into it an ad break comes on.

    So annoyed today that I can't even type it out I'm so overcome by sheer rage. I'm crying, on the train, from temper. I swear to god I've never been so tempted to blow off work and go get drunk

    Positive mental attitude, deep breaths. :) And of course you do! I always find ranting to someone helps me. Call someone, give out sh*te, instantly feel better. :)

    A trip to the bottle bank works wonders too. Pelting bottles in like a mad thing, aim for the steel bar in the middle. It's so satisfying ;)

    My TA is those stupid Park TV ads urging you to start planning for a debt free Christmas 2015. Seriously? F*ck right off !!!!
