    I just remembered that Black Books exists a few days ago. Watched some clips on YouTube. Cracker show.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Very trivial, since its a long time before I was born , but reading about Ronnie Delaney’s gold medal in 1956 at the olympics . He was early 20’s and seemingly it had the best 1500m field ever assembled . Good man !

    Ikea…

    You can pay 5/6 euros per pint glass to other retailers….Guinness, Heineken, Carlsberg or whatever insignia on them and those designs..

    Ikea… 1.20 per glass with nothing on them…. So I just bought 5 earlier. 6 euros vs 30 or so….

    I found a Snickers ice cream in my freezer.

    I thought I'd eaten all of them in the multi pack 🤗

    That I actually made it bed last night and slept till 10 minutes ago . It's nice not waking up on the sofa

    Saw a guy telling a Concern chugger to "F*CK OFF" in a very loud voice today.

    Great to see people standing up to bullies.

    When i hear a song from a band I like decades ago. Like 50 [years, not decades !] !!, that haven't heard for a LONG time, but I can still remember the words and the timing. I do not claim to be a good singer, but this is real good for me

    Having a cup of coffee in the city on a quiet Saturday morning on my own, and miles away mentally and physically from kids family, in-laws, work, Todo lists, ..😁

    Someone doing sudoku puzzles etc on an actual paper on public transport. Also, having access to decent public transport. And public transport when not using it to goto work. 😁

    My mother told me a story about my daughter when she was 3 . I use to bring them to a crèche. And then home for dinner . Anyway granny was saying to my daughter why wasn’t she eating her dinner. The answer “ I’ve no fcuking spoon “ 😀😀😀

    On hols in the not so sunny south east, boys still asleep, and rain drumming down on the roof of the mobile home, but lying on the couch with a good book, and nowhere to be. Perfect!



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,215 ✭✭✭Poochie05


    Despite it threatening to rain several times today I got a line of towels dried 🤗

    I can hear bullfinches, but I can't see them. Thanks to the Merlin app, I now know the sound of a bullfinch.

    Catching the last of the suns rays while it lasts.

    I remember as a very young boy digging a couple of holes and putting horse chestnuts in them.

    Just doing a bit of gardening there and admiring how they have grown

    Unless my eyes (or my screen) deceive me, those aren't horse chestnuts. Sycamores, maybe? Good looking trees, though.

    I hope the weather improves but that sounds like absolute bliss. 😊



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,143 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    I think you might be right.

    Maybe my memory is worse than I thought. 🤣

    I planted something there anyway 🙊

    When you're walking along a road and you see up ahead a person/people walking in the opposite direction whom you know and whom you don't want to meet and talk to, e.g. a co-worker, acquaintance, ex-partner, even friends - someone you wish to avoid for whatever reason.

    You're anticipating a strained and awkward interaction but it's only when you come closer to them that you realise you're mistaken and it's actually a complete stranger. Such relief! This happened to me earlier today and I almost felt like thanking the stranger in question for not being who I thought they were 😆

    Got my electricity bill and I'm still in credit.

    The neighbors calico cat running over to me and chirping at me 😄


    Getting a much needed haircut.

    Being able to cycle to town for my lunch break again 😍 I really missed that!


    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!



  • Registered Users Posts: 456 ✭✭Goodigal


    Not trivial but was lucky enough to be at the All Ireland final today. Tension. Excitement. And pure joy at the final whistle 😊



  • Registered Users Posts: 152 ✭✭ThePentagon


    My sisters were over today visiting with their small kids and it reminded me - there's few things that make me happier than the sublime silence that comes over the whole house just after they've closed the front door when they leave for home 😄
