    Enjoy every bite and sip Duvet! I'm living vicariously through you guys at the moment aside from the sitting and watching tv..I'm doing plenty of that on my own :)

    I'm couchside watching old episodes of Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares. It's a shame shows like this have become so sensationalist and fake. I'm on season 2 and its raw and authentic, no dramatic music or a narrator stating the obvious like the US version.....Gordon storms into the kitchen ready to bite...dun dun dun...I know, I'm watching the bleedin thing!

    The original Channel 4 series were great. The USA version is just unadulterated fake crap. But hey, Ramsey took the dollars to feed the ego.

    In the Kitchen digesting personal and national news, as you do. Planning my dinner and on Argos.ie.

    10.30 ? Weeps , I need a job that allows me to sleep late every morning, I'm on my break at that time some days.

    Bad Duvet...I'm taking loads of half days at the moment, I start off the day and after about an hour I think 'feck that I've had enough ' , what's going to happen when I run out of annual leave, it's unthinkable. ��

    Couchside, I've opened a bottle of red after being so good recently, also a big bag of Tesco bistro crisps, all my hard work down the drain but I'm really enjoying it, I'm actually not in work until tomorrow afternoon so going to take full advantage of that, cheers lads.

    I'm lucky with my hours and loving my work. It was a long hard road to get here. It isn't easy though. There are....industry issues and always something that needs to be paid for and if I don't have work then I don't have money. No sick pay or holiday pay or health benefits. The grass is always greener :)

    There's a big bag of some kind of chunky bbq flavoured crisps in my kitchen and I'm doing my damndest to ignore them. You might have encouraged me to ignore my ignoring :p

    I am couchside. Dinner had and wine in hand. Wet auld night out there.

    I'm still in the office a few hours a week. That's great for me because I'd go bonkers working from home but I think when this is over more will have a choice and that's a good thing.

    I would just like to add that I'm on Argos.ie reserving an essential item, because they don't let you reserve a non essential item. Crazy times!:D

    Couchside after my evening saunter hanging out with Larry (watching Curb Your Enthusiasm) drinking tea eating the last of the Christmas cake. Figuring out my mspaint picture.

    You’d be surprised Grem. I was in looking for external drives the other day and they’ve seriously reduced the selection.

    Believe it or not they do. I needed a few USB Sticks as my usual supplier is taking ages, so I opted for an Argos reservation. I tried to be sneaky and reserve a bedside lamp for Ms G. Not a hope. Got one from Dunnes stores online that will do the job. Added some shoes, a shirt , a hoodie and two tops for Mrs G. 65 quid including delivery. We badly need it.:eek: Even online, I'm spending local.:D

    Like loads of others I'm currently stuck in a Currys/PC World scenario. A .ie website but shipping it from the UK. Hard to believe these guys used to have an Empire.:rolleyes:

    When you find an old (like 14 years old) DVD with movie files on it and it stills plays. A great collection of obscure stuff on it. Don't ask me as its all written on the actual disc, which is loaded now for take off!

    Huntingside, it smells like there’s something burning in my apartment... but I can’t find it! hmmm :pac: bizzaaarrreee...

    @ G, found one of those discs a while back with a heap of Tartan Asia Horror movies on it... but nothing to play them on :(

    Ooooh fight!!! ModFight!!! MMA forum that way >>> if you need....

    Still home-office-side. It's cosy and quiet in here, so catching up on admin stuff with a fab fun retro disco mix playing in the background.

    By admin I obviously mean that I have just industriously done ALL the internet shopping, suddenly bit nervous about all the pending arrivals.
    New dining table (super necessary, because the old one is my old metal patio table andit's no longer charming, but just a bit sad :o), new dressing table and bedside lockers (because the 20 year old ikea repainted ones have literally stopped working and I want fancy), new patio tiles and loungers and summer bulbs and pots and soil (because happy summer sunshine project urgently needed :pac:).
    And some more new clothes for me just because I cannot stand wearing same old black black black anymore. This we can only blame the disco mix for :D

    I know of a business who were all ready for brexit and then On Monday they received a email and extras had been added and others removed. This has affected them as they now have to go and change all over again and retrain staff.

    Couchside chomping on a Maom stripe, god they are chewy :D
