    Sprawled in the wooden kitchen chair with cramps, it's my morning ritual :D I be bionic again in half an hour. Predictive text sneakily inserted Bubonic there. In great form. It's not that windy but it sounds dramatic from indoors. Class.

    Soaked. To the skin. Waterproof jacket clearly isn't!
    Time for shower then work.

    Waiting to see the results of adaptive tan drops. Will probably have photos taken later and I'm so pale at the moment my face is camera flash non-compliant.

    I am at work. I wore a big pair of plastic rain trousers over my work trousers on the way in to work this morning

    I am sure I saw some obviously turned on women looking at me and wondering who that 30 year old was walking the street in plastic trousers....

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,756 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    Deskside - just back in from running the dogs in the rain, (no waterproofs :o)
    Lots of work on again and another full day planned. But it's going well and I'm hoping to clear the decks by weeks' end and then hibernate for a while :D

    Just offloaded a few bags of stuff at the charity shop and feel cleansed after it. It's good to dejunk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    Capitalising on lots of energy to give my house a winter clean. If you do it in short hard bursts one job or one are of a room (bookshelves, sink, fireplace, appliances) it doesn't drag.

    Grem, I got these as a sample and there's no box to read about what they are about but I mistakenly used a load of the drops recently, thinking they were face oil and a tan developed and deepened gradually over 3 days so I think That's the adaptive part. Or else it's supposed to match your natural skin tone

    Cup of tea for Grem
    Keen to hear how Kitty got on,
    Hoping Shoes feels better.

    Shout out to Mam, finally getting around to doing those last packing boxes. It feels good!

    Evening all...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,204 ✭✭✭Kitty6277


    Starbucks-side, hopefully waiting to meet someone.

    Interview went well, the lady interviewing said she’d be reluctant to let me give up the hotel over Christmas because the hours with them wouldn’t be as stable and I’d end up losing out money-wise, but to send her an email in January and we’ll set something up for February. So all in all, happy enough :)

    Couchside, at home, got in the door about 25 mins ago.
    Busy, long day. Chilling before getting dinner sorted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,280 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Delighted to hear that Kitty :) Grem and Shoes I hope you're both feeling better ((hugs))

    Just home now and deciding what to have for the dinner :)

    Nope. Heard of it but never.


    OMG yes!!! Cheapest/most underage pints going :pac:
    Verrrry vague memories there now, was 15/16, in Dublin on holidays from the US I think, and well that was either the end or the beginning of something. :D
    Google tells me Hairy Lemon, never vibed on that place, but location adds up.

    Dublin was the best. Still is in pockets/times!
    I remember another holiday/stint back here as a teenage, and discovering The Coffee Inn, St Anne Street. Only place open (bar Bewleys) you could get a coffee at ALL. They had weird 80's style plastic diner booths and served mugs of old Nescafe granule coffee! And Irish breakfasts! Crazy characters in there.

    Bartleys was facing the William Tell that did indeed become the Hairy Lemon. Break for the Boarder is where Bartleys used to be. The William Tell was full of Cure Heads that you could also find in the Coffee Inn of South Anne Street. They did a great Hot Chocolate. One more spot for a coffee was the other side of Grafton Street - The Wildebeest in the laneway to the Powerscourt centre.

    Laptop. Kitchen. Dinner. Hopefully finished work.
