    Well, would YOU have gone out in that weather yesterday to climb pylons etc? They deserve danger money. I was out very briefly to get coal in and was soaked and blown over. They are worth their money. And more. And you are contracted; they are not.

    I do go out of my way in ways though. I'm in contact with seriously ill and contagious patients, am sick as a result so much that I'm starting to believe I no longer have an immune system. Not myself, but a colleague had to test Ebola samples abroad, because it was the only chance they had to save some patients. Danger and risk is associated with far more than wind and rain.

    Myself, my mother and my wife decided to put bets on all the races in lepardstown today. 7 races, 7 bets each. All different horses.

    Out of the 21 different horses backed (some win, some eachway) only one gave any returns. And that was a small return.

    There was one race with just 4 horses. But the One horse none of us had backed won.

    TA at our collective bad luck.

    I am now full of cabin fever. Full Of It...

    Dublin is soaking. Walked round to the shop to buy the paper and some milk and I am wet through. This is day 2. AAARGH.

    So Trivial, but that's the thread!

    This has to be one of the most miserable gloomy Christmas weather events ever!

    I need to start getting ready to go out but I am so full from dinner that I don't think I can actually move!

    That's the worst about having your dinner right before you're going out; you feel full and lethargic.
    Did you have a turkey dinner?
    Just curious because I'm doing curry.

    My grandfather rather pointedly asked me if I was still on weight watchers just as I was about to tuck into some pavlova for dessert :(

    He also asked me if I got in a fight with my hairdresser so I asked him if he got into a fight with his because he's bald :p

    I also put low fat milk in his tea :D

    TA'd over the lack of blue cheese in the house. We have most of the others but blue cheese is my favorite.

    I made soup but I couldn't find any soup spoons in the kitchen. I searched everywhere and the soup started going cold so I'm having it with a tablespoon.

    This is it. It's the final step of my descend into savagery.

    I had a bit of cooked rice left over today. So I look on the birdie website to see if it's ok for my feathered friends.

    Yup, they love it apparently, except my lot. It went out at midday, and it is still there now.

    So fekkin annoyed. Now I don't know whether to blame the birdies or the RSPB (that's the bible for the birdies BTW!)

    Such a trivial thing. I bet the fekker birdies would scoff it if it was snow and ice out there. Ungrateful sods.

    TA. I know.....

    Managers in office gave us each a bottle of cheap white wine for Christmas. I had a glass over the last hour, and now I have a headache. No other effect - not even a mild loosening of inhibitions. Just the headache. :mad:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Aunt and cousins called over last night for a couple of hours. The aunt proceeded to talk for that entire time about Daughter #2's recent engagement and about going ring shopping in the New Year, and the projected budget for the ring, and about Daughter #1's job, and the son's kid. Always nice to hear about how people are doing, but she never enquired about any of the other kids in the family (two of whom got new jobs recently, and the other is completing a PhD, so there is material to ask about!), or asked after the health of another relative who has been very ill of late, and was sitting right across from her!

    She always was a witch, but now I just zone out when she talks. The daughters are as bad - I'll be ducking out of that wedding if at all possible!! :D

    Stupid Christmas lights with the fancy flashing patterns. I just want them to be constantly on. Allegedly I have to press the button five times to select that option. That never works. It tries to make me think I have selected the right one, only for them to start blinking like crazy as soon as I walk away.

    Stupid, frustrating bloody things!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,038 ✭✭✭Ficheall


    Current job application has 37 selection criteria to be addressed. Ugh. Such BS.

    In bed but my phone charger cable is a spurious one and so only charges when held at a certain angle :-/

    Oooh, had that for ages with a phone charger recently. Finally went and bought a new one, and now looking back don't know how I coped with the other one!

    Bought a pack of 5 of the buggers and am being stubborn.... I think you've convinced me to buy a extra long cable tomorrow; -)

    Hate this kind of reply. What the ESB men do is STILL dangerous and risky. I never aid no one else did dangerous work :confused: Fact remains that shinning up pylons in a gale is dangerous and should be well compensated.

    Last evening I put the cats' usual evening feed dwon. Tinned cat food which they love. One sniff and they walked away! We now have a food stand off. Makes me smile though as the one who walked away first is the feral who a few weeks ago ate as it she were being hunted, gulping anything and eyes all around her all the time for danger. The food is still there this morning and there is no more turkey except my dinner and they are not having that ..

    I had a turkey and ham dinner again! Delicious but I was too full. I'd love a curry!!!

    Every night I go out saying I won't go to the nightclub and every night without fail, I end up in the nightclub. I regret it every single time because the music is rubbish and it's full of teenagers.

    Also got into a bar last night because I'm old :( how depressing!!

    Plugged my phone into charge but forgot to switch it on at the wall. What a twit.

    People who preach at others online as though they are the only ones who know anything about anything. Maybe they just have bad writing skills but they come across as so rigidly boring that I end up pitying them while still being irritated.

    So awfully trivially annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,024 ✭✭✭endofrainbow


    People who buy clothes for Christmas. Same clothes for sale 2 days later at half the price. Madness


    people who buy new clothes for wearing on the PLANE for the their holidays

    You have different indicators of savagery: try eating cereal out of a saucepan because there's no bowls.

    It will be there in the last place you look alright...

    Got kitted out lastnight to complete a task/challenge I was already late in completing but then could not find the key needed to unlock the damn lock.

    Decided in all my wisdom the lastime I used it not to keep it in same place as I normally do, for reasons now unknown to me...
    Searched high & low for over 15mins - nothing.

    Out of gear and into trackies contemplating a locksmith as the only means to gain access,
    Hand into trackie-pants to retrieve tissue and there it was! There was the damn key!

    Back out of trackie and into gear again to complete this challenge. Think it was that burst of annoyance that got me through it, as my immune system was telling me no :D
    ^^^Silver Lining I Suppose in the midst of the annoyance,
