    Bed is overrated, less sleeping and more riding.

    A wasp must have came in with the turf and he's buzzing about somewhere.

    Either that or I'm having a stroke. .

    It's the weekend, I generally stay up to as near as daylight as I can. Perhaps a power nap around 3am to 5am.

    Nothng worse, I'd prefer prison under the Việt Cộng to that. Spent some time in hospital in the 90's, it was pure hell.

    You are allowed to compassionately kill these people. Or just wake them up, whichever's easier...

    Eating a slice of Vienetta ice cream, this first in approx 10 years.

    Just going to have one more slice

    I’m stuck in bastid work.
    Do people remember when nightclubs had some weird policy that they had to feed you at some stage.usually some 3 day old chicken curry that would be stuck to your shoes the following day after it was puked all over said nightclub.
    Whatever happened to that feed a drunk policy?

    Vienetta is at least 14 times the price it used to be and half the size.sneaky bastids took 4 briquettes off the bale and put up the price.old bale was 4 brickeens bigger with orange strap.new one smaller with green strap.bord na mona mafia.
    Tell the kids some briquettes wielding thief broke in and took the vienetta and guards are currently tracing his whereabouts by following a trail of briquette dust leaving the scene of the crime

    That was a crazy judge in Galway made the nite clubs kill the music turn on the house lights and feed everyone. Years before we used to get the odd feed in a nite club, they had to feed you if you asked, but it was always dodgy looking.

    Not proper sleep when sloshed though - and your liver is working overtime so when you wake up it'll be very hard to get back to sleep. You'll feel wrecked the next day...

    My excuse? Lying on my ex's sofa scoffing vintage cheddar cheese on crackers with liberal dollops of Balkymaloe relish. Nyom!!

    Oh i remember 'chicken suppers'. Sounds better than it was. Sad piece of chicken chips and peas in a shallow plastic tray with a wonky plastic fork. How it managed to make my mouth is a mystery.
    Still, happy days:p

    My young daughter’s not well and has a high temperature. I’m ‘sleeping’ on the floor in her room to mind her, so I’m not getting much sleep, though thankfully she’s asleep herself now.

    I remember this in Galway. You'd be half cut on would come the main lights and shutters would drop on the bat. you'd get a baked potatoe wrapped in tin foil, and a chilli con carne, burns on your hands because of the drink and lack of awareness how hot it was. Then lights off shutters up and on with the rave music. Churning that food up with all you drank. Floors used to be manky end of night. It was a funny and Wierd few years.

    It was part of the licensing laws, nightclubs were actually supper clubs or 'dinner dances' where they could have bar extensions. They had to serve a dinner. Made for quiet going home cos peoples bellys were full and they were less cranky and hangry because there was no need for a 30 deep queue for chips at 3am.
    Fights were for proper reasons like you were chatting up his bird or some such sh!te and it stopped when one stayed down.
    I used to love these feeds cos as a young one at the time you didn't eat for the entire day before you went out in case it made you fat. You didnt care at 12:30 am because you were pie eyed on the 3 bottles of Ritz because you'd no food all day...
    In the spirit of the thread, I was asleep by 11:30 pm cos I have so many kids.
