I don't know where we're going, but I know where I am (part 6).

Edward M

I knew a fella in England once who was wanted by the police for traffic offences, the cops came knocking on the door looking for him, he answered the door himself and was walking out with his, suitcase under his arm, heading for the boat back home.
They asked him who was inside, he said Brown is in there smoking in the bathroom, they rushed in and ran up the stairs to a steaming toilet bowl but the brown wasn't a man, if you know what I mean, but Mr Brown was in his jalopy and long gone by the time they figured out they'd been tricked.
In your case mam I'd make an exception, but usually I'm reluctant to accept strange brownies ever since.
Looking to see if I have any goodies stashed myself, it's Sunday and we didn't get much in this week as Mrs is working a lot, but I know I had wagon wheels somewhere, if only the brats haven't found them............

I've had that since Christmas. Haven't got past page 7. If you manage to read it let me know if it's worth the effort!

Oh dear...doesn’t sound good. Think it won a big book prize. I’m the worst Book Club member ever. I actually tabled a motion “should I be kicked out of the Bookclub for never reading the book”!

If it's the Anna Burns book, I wish you luck - long rambling sentences and she doesn't seem to believe in paragraphs. It's dull and an absolute chore to read.


Correspondence all done and feeling peckish so I may have a few bowls of Rice Krispies.

Spent the last few hours with a friend who woke up this morning, watched the news and realised that his colleague/friend had died.

Then he had to break news to the guys wife and kids.

Good night all.

Bedside

Night all

Edward M

Jaez, everybody must have gone to bed early tonight.
Went for a couple of scoops with my big bro, just home. Topping craic in our local, just six of us there and the banter was good.
Off to bed, night all.

smurfjed

Where is the crazy night crowd? No postings throughout the night. Does this mean that there is too much mischief going on in Galway.

Gremlinertia

Hello, your western correspondent here, a busy night in galway (for me anyway)

honeybear

About to drag myself out of bed to begin my working week. My pet pooch gets to stay in bed. Jealous

TG1

Bed, having a lie in. took a half day off this morning so still in the sunny south east, just enjoying my last couple of hours here before heading home.

Gremlinertia

Homeward bound, will be glad to see the bed what with getting up early yesterday and being busy.. Hope its a good day for you lot, whatever ye are up to..

Nice sunny morning, looks fresh! Heading for a walk with the dog.

I'm on the Dart into work, listening to Mícheál Ryan's mum on Morning Ireland describing her son and his remarkable attitude to life and his work with the World Food Programme.

Can't fathom how she can speak so calmly and eloquently about her son and her bereavement when even I, a stranger, am tearing up.

If you haven't heard the interview, I'd recommend listening back and hearing what kind of guy he was.

GoneHome

A very productive hour done at the coalface, looking forward to the week ahead and off Friday for a Cheltenham get together in the local, have a good week everyone

Just watching a bit on him on ireland am on tv3.
Seems he was a selfless hard working chap who made a huge difference to to a lot of people.

Home chores done and breakfast ate, heading to roscommon today to erect a shed with my BIL in tow. Its sunny so far but there's a bad afternoon forecast so wet suit packed, better be prepared anyway.

Dying of a hangover. Lying in the bed feeling very fragile.
