Absolute ****e week at work, got home to the old man whose been seriously ill since new years day, drive up to the drive way and he's sitting out the back.
'Alright buddy, fancy a bit of fishing'

20 minutes later two of us, a corona in hand casting off looking for salmon.

No bites...


Then he reels in a fish

'I got something!!!'

A baby trout fish... laughed our asses off...the fish got put back in and went on its way.

Brought him for a guiness after, made all that ****e during the week worth it

Love it! They look so happy! Saw one there the last day with his back legs on the top of the passengers seat with his head poking out the sun roof Hilarious to watch but I suppose a bit dangerous if they breaked hard though....

Sorry to be the buzzkill but unrestrained dogs are not a good thing.

three points plus an €80 fine

the animal can be seriously hurt in an accident

emergency services cannot help anyone injured in a car if there is an unrestrained dog

not covered by insurance (heard this one, not 100% if true)

Out in the garden since after breakfast and just saw that the wife has the box in the end of the fridge full with (now) cold cans of Bulmers.

There is a God!

Oh totally agree. I did say it was dangerous afterall!

I think I am coming out the other end of the week from hell. It feels good to be myself again

Scares me silly seeing a car drive past with a dog half out of the window. Too much imagination maybe but so many dangers. Having to serve to the left to avoid a collision and into a wall... Please..

Spending the day out in the garden aswell. Got the deck chairs out, a paddling pool, cheese puffs etc. Redneck holiday

The warm weather

Sat out all day reading a book. (Had to come in because I've been scalded by the sun ) I am getting through some amount of reading thanks to this gorgeous weather.

My sister made me a Malibu and red lemonade and it tastes exactly like those Frosties sweets from years ago.

Just hit me; the sheer wonder of living where i take it for granted that I leave gas cylinders out by the road!
Anywhere else, they would be stolen..

Just never thought of it before..

Of course no one could even get them off the island without the ferryman!

Awesome place!

and not a single vehicle has passed here on the only road all day!

In bliss!

TG1

A combination of fizzy elderflower, prosecco, mint and ice.
Topped off by the fact that I'm enjoying it with the two people who have educated me and stood by me through all the bad job choices, celebrating the fact that we all think I've finally made a good one, enjoyed outside in the sun. Happy days!

Th Had a great day with my nephew, he was asleep in my arms for a while and when he woke up he gave me the biggest smile he was burying his little head into my chest and then he got cranky because he wanted to be fed so handed him back to my sister and then after my mam was holding him and I was giving him loads of kisses on his head and he was smiling mad me , when they were leaving they put him into his car seat and you should have seen the cross look he gave his mammy as if to say "Why are you putting me back into this bloody thing again for woman" .


Also I cut the grass and I did a fine job if I do say so myself :pac:.

I can confirm he is indeed the friendliest dog known to mankind! He's so affectionate and likes to lick you incessantly as if you were a piece of ham!

My dog has taken to sunning himself on the roof of my car. I went out this morning and here he is panned out on top of my car, fast asleep, basking in the heat from the firey sun.
He stayed asleep or at least ignored me as I called him. So I sat into the car, started it and slowly moved it forward thinking it’d freak him out and he’d never claw his way onto my roof again. Wrong. Gently moved the car, no sign of him, got out to check and he was sitting like he was on the pope mobile, could hardly believe this magical new way of moving.

He’s going to make sh1t of my paint work but he makes me happier than my car makes me

Last night as I was coming back from the pub I saw a small bird. It was on the road by the curb and as I stood beside it I noticed it didn't fly away. So I picked it up. It swawked for a moment and tried to get away but was unsuccessfull because one of it's wings didn't seem to be functioning. I didn't want it to be splatted by a car. First time ever I picked up a bird after a night out.

I blanked out all the windows so it couldn't see daylight and it slept like a baby for 10 hours in the spare room. Then it came back to life in the afternoon so I decided to let it go back in the wild and picked a spot locally where there was lots of trees and bushes. Did you know if you pet a birds head it will actually respond like a cat.

I will never know what happened to it after I let it go. Maybe it didn't survive long but at least I got to know it for a short while and I hope I made it's death a little less brutal.

It was nice to meet this bird for a short while. Maybe I'm nuts but it did make me happy to look after it as brief as it was.

Here it is in my apartment the morning after.



And here it is after I let it go:

These two posts restore your faith in humans. I have a black car, covered in paw marks from my car. She's 17, so she allowed.

Watching the cats lazing sprawled in the sun in the buttercup laden grass on the drive... rolling on their backs in the sun..

Bit the bullet and went to the physio about my ever increasing knee and lower back pain/weakness.
The area needed heat to show the extent of the injury, I had mentioned that my neck/shoulders were tight/sore(ish) due to environmental issues.

Physio put warm pads on the shoulder area as well, relieving most of the pain there.

TH, at the kindness and that it was considered part of the treatment and wasn't charged extra for it.
