I haven't either but keep meaning to as everyone I know enjoyed it.

Love Derry girls, got into it late as I'd missed the first season but watched it over a couple of nights before the second season launched. Looking forward to seeing this one now, missed it last night but will watch it later tonight.

I really liked the first series, but definitely found the second one a bit weaker. Will have to watch the new episode tonight and see how it is!

You're dead right there! 😄

Has anyone ever said something like "only 90 days to Christmas" or "I ordered some decorations online (when it's the middle of July)" and a non Elf has just looked at you like you've ten heads?

It’s weaker again than season 2. Still a half decent watch tho.

I thought it was much stronger than season 2, loads of genuine laugh out loud moments, for me anyway!

Watching it now, have to admit finding it quite funny.

edit.

Loved the 'guest star' that scene was brilliant.

Morning all

Happy Friday (for those of luck enough to get Easter off) 😀

Going to see an Easter buddy with the kids tomorrow and then going for some lunch. Looking forward it. Not quite seeing Santa however the kids will have a blast and nice to know 4 days off work.

Forgot to watch Derry Girls on Tuesday so will catch up over the weekend.

Have family coming over for dinner on Sunday so it'll be like Christmas again 😁

Going to my sister's on Sunday and we're having Turkey and Ham 🎉🎄

That's what we're cooking too

I bought a Turkey crown today too and half the Christmas ham is still in the freezer, so that'll get cooked on Sunday. There will even be stuffing, all that will be missing is the sprouts!

I'm doing roast beef and yorkshire puddings for Easter Sunday. Fish and chips tomorrow and a chinese takeaway for Saturday. Bring on the weekend! 😋

My song of choice in the shower this morning was randomly Fairytale of New York.

Easter always has a mini Christmas vibe about it.

off work for the next 5 days as well. I’m very excited :)

Heading off to Dublin Airport in a bit... wish us luck!!!

Easter dinner for us will be an Indian!! Looking forward to it already, am off until Monday week too so this will be my longest break this year until Christmas itself.

Have a great Easter y'all!!

Happy Easter all, hope everyone is enjoying the time off. Had a nice relaxing couple of days so far, walk this morning and afternoon of chocolate!!

Happy Easter to you all from a very rainy Cork.

Happy Easter from a gloriously sunny Yorkshire...

Haha, glad it’s nice for you - have a lovely break 😀

Happy Easter all, bought myself a Daim Easter egg, so looking forward to tucking into that after a Sunday roast dinner later.

Nice enough in dublin too, white cloud but no rain and not particularly cold.

Just overbaked my lemon meringue cake 😟 Had the timer set but then started hoovering 😡 It's very dark but not quite too burnt. Will still be eaten though, cream and lemon curd/passionfruit filling should sort it out.

Happy Easter everyone, hope you all have a great one!

A very happy weekend for me personally as my Dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer a few weeks ago, it was caught really early and he was brought into the Mater last Monday to have it removed.

The happy bit is he was home by Tuesday and there hasn't been a bother on him all week since, so if he's happy then the rest of the family are happy. Big relief for us all to be honest.

Happy Easter all!

@BK5 your poor family, that must have been an awful shock. I'm delighted surgery went well and he's home and hopefully enjoying plenty of chocolate today!!

We're having Turkey, ham etc. I eventually got the Easter decorations upstairs night.

We finally took the Christmas oil cloth off the table ☺

Happy Easter everyone!

Currently at the Seaside.

Not the best day for it!
