    Deskside in the work office, looking forward to a half-day today as I've been snowed under with work the past couple of weeks and decided I needed an afternoon off.

    Late lunch with the OH in Wicklow later! 😎💕

    That's what's strange about it . I thought I was over it , I was grand for a week then boom a 2nd dose. And that's with constant washing etc thanks to covid 😕

    Yikes hope that doesn't happen me, getting 'caught short' is unpleasant at the best of times



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,209 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Bags packed. Even the new kit bag and its new 4K camera. Fuel up in the morning and off I go on another adventure! My first big one since before the pandemic.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,401 ✭✭✭thomil


    Just make sure you don't trip over a loose pavement slab...

    Deskside here, feeling somewhat normal for the first time in almost two weeks.

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



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,203 ✭✭✭Samsgirl


    And.... I'm back. Thanks for all your lovely comments and wishes re Mam. Gone 3 weeks tomorrow. It's like time has stood still. Have a pain that just won't ease.

    I went back to work on Monday and it was good to get some bit of routine back.

    Now to find a new 'normal' and be present for my minions and Mr Sam. Been caring for Mam continuously since Feb and on / off for 10mths.

    @Sardi, hope your Dad is on the mend.

    Where I'm going I could trip over cow pats, sheep shite, rocks and a stray cable. Hope not! Get well soon.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Who can relate 😂😂😂😂👍



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,266 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Had just gone to bed and got called to work, should see the sunrise over Sudan, have lunch in Rwanda and home for a birthday party. Somehow I definitely see this as a Nespresso day.’

    Just chilling with the cat. I'm postponing bed and work and life and he's snoozing before he goes to bed.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,543 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Watching ready Steady Cook. They're definitely a bunch of talented chefs



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,266 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Is this far enough away 😂😂




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,401 ✭✭✭thomil


    Kigali? Talk about getting a change in perspective!

    Simple, I’m a maps addict (seriously, screw GPS, give me a map and a compass and I’ll be fine!) and I’ll likely be able to identify at least some of the more unique airports from a simple satellite image, as demonstrated above 😉

    Now if this were some regional airport in the US or in some parts of Europe, mainly Spain or Greece, I’d likely be screwed…

    Just making the most of my last 4 mins before work. Had a long walk and a big breakfast. Maybe I'll make a habit of it.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 12,887 Mod ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Deskside in the home office working away. Have a very important meeting at 3pm with two people from my professional past and I’m pretty anxious about it - but I hope it will go well. 👍

    Wish me luck! 🤗

    On the train to Dublin. There will be divilment 🙌🥳😊



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    loving the sound of that 👍😂😂


    I’m having a great day here in the coalface 😊 No stress, just relaxing, it’s lovely when the witch isn’t working 👍😂



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,482 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Hope the meeting went well Jupiter

    Having a mug of tae, what's new?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,401 ✭✭✭thomil


    Nothing new here, counting the minutes until I can close up shop for the weekend. I hope that I'll be able to go back to the office next week, but the way my leg & rib feel at the moment, that might be a bit optimistic.

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



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,260 ✭✭✭Poochie05


    Having a non alcoholic aperitif, otherwise known as a T without the G 😩 have had a rough stomach bug since I got back from my short trip last week. Friend got it too so we obviously picked it up while travelling. Only starting to feel human again. Had a bonus week off work but back to the coalface on Monday.

    Have a great Friday evening all, watch out Dublin, Bones is about! 😱😂

    if you're comparing yourself to them then remember ... Comparison is the thief of joy



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,275 ✭✭✭✭Purple Mountain


    The house is shaking with the tunes blasting from the young fella's bedroom, all dance tunes with Come Out Ye Black and Tans thrown in.

    I was a bookworm teenager so this is all alien to me 🥴

    Checking in from Sligo. I've earned this. Dinner on the way?




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,209 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Back indoors for the grub. We're like savages!

    Cool. When you mentioned it I was looking for an identifier of some sort.

    If there's ever a Boards orientation event I'm teaming up with you.😀



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    This is me 😂😂😂😂😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,401 ✭✭✭thomil


    Oh, count me in that category as well! I've been overtaken by drifting continental plates over the last couple of days!

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



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    😂😂😂😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,266 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Should have another location for @thomil to guess,

    Breakfast planned in a lovely city that I haven’t seen in years :):)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,543 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Sitting up watching F1 practice highlights when I thought I heard a knock on the 3. I ignored it , then heard a phone ringing. Answered the door to see a well oiled fella I knew years back. There's a party going on in Seamie's , might end up there yet !!!

    Or Maybe I'll go to bed 😡



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Morning kisses 😘😘

    So long Sligo. Hello Mayo.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,266 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    @thomil do you want to guess this one ?

    Paris Charles de Gaulle, Western end of Terminal 2A by the looks of it.

    Only the French would go for such a weird design 😉 Seriously, I can't stand that airport!

    Homeside here, planning to take it easy all day

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



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,266 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    LOL, totally correct :):) First time that I have actually brought myself in here, we usually stick with LeBourget. Now time for a few beers while I watch the French scenery.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    Ridiculously, every night that I come home drunk (which is every night I go out*) as I walk down the steep stairs to my apartment, I say to myself: I'm as agile as a mountain goat, that's old, fat, arthritic and drunk.

    I giggle too. Yup am a silly goat

    *I don't always come home drunk at night, coz like last night, I don't always come home. Ended up at a mate's drinking until 4. Am as rough as the tongue of said mountain goat right now but need to get my act together soon to go the opening of another mate's bar.

    The final games of the season will be tomorrow so it's a mad weekend altogether.

    Has anyone got a spare Liver?

    Home sweet home. Had a great night in Dublin last night but home is where the heart is.



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 12,887 Mod ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Meeting yesterday went really well - a good outcome and should help me in my career going forward. 😊👍👍

    Getting ready to head into town now to meet a friend for an early bird dinner. Have a good weekend all! 🥰🌈



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,543 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    I'm at home waiting on a delivery of beer for that very reason 😋



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,209 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    Today's view from the office.




  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 60,482 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Trundle time for me.. That airport does look strangely laid out even to amateur noggin here, logistics be damned!.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,364 ✭✭✭SuperBowserWorld


    Did some long overdue garden maintenance and also put up a rotary clothes line. Thought I needed to buy some fence paint, but found a tin in the shed. Had a Coke to celebrate with the cat.

    The joys of suburban middle aged mid life crisis living. 🤠😂🙂
