    Ifyou are a first time buyer, there is a guy on Instagram, crazyhouseprices that people seem to swear by for giving tips and guidance on his page through the house buying process. He has a few things in his highlights that might be worth reading anyway - he also has a book out. Just thought I'd mention it :)

    Had my first lie on in a few weeks, have just polished off a couple of sausage and rasher toastie sandwiches, second cup of tea about to be made. Don't have to be anywhere in a rush.

    Have a voucher for a local tool shop so will go down there and pick up a few bits that aren't going to cost me anything, have to get away from going into work on Saturdays and enjoying mornings like this.

    It really is the little things.

    Our match was cancelled this morning as pitches were deemed unplayable. Was never so happy to have a game called off. Can get the grocery shop done at a leisurely pace for a change.

    Dublin Bowie fest coming up. It's usually in January which is great for dissolving the post Christmas blues but it's in early Feb this year. Cannot wait!

    Yes I got to enjoy the rugby. Bittersweet feeling after the World Cup.

    Jobs going great just trying to be a sponge and absorb as much information as possible. It is the same area as before so a lot of crossover thankfully!

    VERY bittersweet after the world cup, but good to shake those world cup blues/cobwebs quickly and move on.

    Great to hear the new job is going well!

    I consider this to be the gateway to Christmas season, so just 38 weeks to go....

    Got out for two walks with the little one over the weekend thanks to the improvement in weather.

    Reminded me of the good times ahead with the brighter and warmer evenings incoming!

    Got my official offer of a place on my masters course for September this morning. Had a strong feeling I'd get it but there's a lot of competition for place so it's a relief to have it.

    Takeaway and bubbles tonight😁
