I don't know where we're going, but we know where we are? (Part whatever)

Mam of 4

Am lol here , can't beat a bit of slagging 😀

Grandeeod

My first ever bottle of Tyskie. (pre a very very late dinner!) I've been around eastern Europe and even into Russia, but this stuff is really nice and light too. Haven't been to Poland though. A colleague recommended it to me last week. Tried it tonight as in right now and actually very good!

Grandeeod

@Mam of 4 Thank you!

Gremlinertia

Need to have a coffee here shortly, boo. Would love a beer of course..

Mam of 4

Think Grandeeod enjoying the beer Grem !

Coffee is good at anytime imo .

Gremlinertia

I'd enjoy the beer too if i wasn't stuck at my desk!! Milky coffee with a touch of brown sugar for me instead. Ooh fancy that, a break in the rain 😂

Grandeeod

@Mam of 4 @Gremlinertia

Yes I did enjoy that last beer and my late curry dinner. Time to curl up with a sleepy Mrs G. I'm getting the hang of this @ lark.😁

Mam of 4

@Gremlinertia , we've created a monster --> @Grande@GrandeeGrandee

@Grandeeod 😁😁

Stupid phone glitching so bad that I can't correct it 😵😵

Grandeeod

Sure I was always a monster! Love this @ thing. In the leaba after milk and kit Kat. I'm easily pleased.

Gremlinertia

We've created an AT-AT (sorry for nerd joke)

Mam of 4

No more @ from me tonight , Grandeeod , though they are fun I agree!

Star Wars Grem ?

(Hadn't a clue , had to Google 🙈)

Gremlinertia

Yup Mam, not that i'm over familiar myself..

Good morning all, how are your heads?

Gremlinertia

Eight hours + into my stint at work, surprisingly head isn't too fried. How is yours?

Good stuff. Nice but strong. Very strong !

Back from my morning walk, kinda strange these days as our quarantine program has fallen apart so we are semi free :):) lots of talk that we shall go back to normality in a week or two, but will believe it when I see it :):)

Gremlinertia

Masks gone in nearly all settings here in another eight days i think. Since i'm using the bus for work i'll stay with the masks since it's flu time of year.. Rough night at work, out in rain and wind trying to sort a few problems out. More damage to come according to forecast again too.

smurfjed

I hope that we at least learn some proper hygiene after this, but somehow I doubt it. I haven’t had as much as a sniffle in last two years.

smurfjed

Saw these beauties on Friday morning. The Chevy is from 1959.

Gremlinertia

Oh it's been such an eye opener in some ways hasn't it?? I'd always cleaned shared equipment regularly but would forget about touching my face or to clean my own feckin phone!

@smurfjed Love the look of whitewalls. Had them on bikes, but they're incredibly hard to keep clean in Ireland. Chrome doesn't hold up too well in Irish weather either.

Sounds like a bit of fun was had here last night! I had epic dinner of steak, chips, mushrooms and spinach, with a glass or 2 of red wine and then conked on the couch after a stressful week was nice to just switch off. I don’t watch true crime but love the made up ones. There was a German one on Channel 4, based on true events, Dark Wood, that I followed a few weeks ago and enjoyed it.

And on comments about the thread being like tumbleweed, I agree with @Grandeeod it probably isn’t the changeover as such anymore but think one of the issues is that you can’t see who thanks posts easily any more. That helped to maintain the sense of community so while people may not have been posting, you knew they were around and dipping in from time to time. And we are just coming out of that crappy time of the year (not even talking about the pandemic) when it’s dark and people are naturally keeping themselves to themselves so not much to report. But brighter days and even more reasons to start to be hopeful might give us a shake!

Grandeeod

You don't even have to look out the window. You can hear the crappy weather.

Mam of 4

The little robins didn't even tap on my window to be fed this morning the weather was so bad . I still went out in the rain for them though and out they came ☺

Heating on , will light the fire in a few minutes and turn it off then . Stay warm all☺

Fed,watered, back in the leaba and heating on, not budging outside today either. It's a wild one.

Mam of 4

Having a late dinner today , so a good old fry just ready , feck it , including a slice of fried bread !

Grandeeod

@Mam of 4 just polished off a fried egg on fried bread with a couple of waffles. Loin of pork for dinner. Comfort food for the day that's in it.

Mam of 4

It definitely is the day for it @Grandeeod ! Hits the spot perfectly !

Love loin of pork , think I actually have one in the freezer . Stuffed chicken breast for me later , son fancied curry so will make that later too☺

Lying in bed, woke up just 20 minutes ago, listening to the rain and wind lashing outside there today. Not a day to be out and about! ☔️⛈☔️⛈☔️

Had a great night out last night at The Seattle Grunge Experience in Whelans of Wexford Street with three good mates. The lads in the band played all the major grunge hits of Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. Came back for two encores. Excellent stuff! 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸🎸

Wasn’t just us oldies in their 40s and early 50s there either - quite a few in their 20s and 30s, showing the enduring power of grunge. 😎 That was my first gig in well over two years (Bjork at the 3 Arena in Nov ‘19 was the last). Great craic and so good to be out. Dublin city centre last night was heaving!

Couch, again,, really have to start doing some movement.

Anyway, ate a load of Lindt chocolate last night and as usual I got very tired so in bed by 10, awake this morning at 7. Now I'm watching my 3 chick's playing on the Wii fit....I got a present of it years ago but never used it. They found it under the bed and they love it. It really does get them moving and as usual there's a healthy competition between them to see who wins lol lol
