Each to their own i suppose, it's handy for me as I bring my son and Saturday mornings are perfect not only for me but everyone else so the aul appointments are spot on

TA but not surprised that the company I work for are tighter than a Crab's bum

THOUGHT I'd go to Blackrock today by taking the Go Ahead Ireland 17. Looked up the time of the next bus on my phone - 12.47 - it was now 12.43 Good And Well. Roll on to 12.55. Still no 17. Looked up app again. The next 17 was now in 27 minutes. I did Plan B and did not go to blackrock.

Just back from the Pavillions shopping center in swords... its rammed... proper unpleassant manic... saw a family of maskless cùnts facilitate their around 3 year old to be running wild and bump into a man using a walking frame almost tripping him... his daughter said something in passing which I think was " can you control your child... thats not safe , Jesus "..and that led to a volley of abuse in return in front of kids... make scumbags history....

US client calling a contract renewal meeting at 4.30 in the afternoon on Christmas week.

Same client also tasked us yesterday with writing a ridiculously detailed 2021 report, due date Jan 4th 🙄 Like fcuk off, it's Christmas. I know you all go back to work on the 26th over there, but we're closed til the 4th!

I thought everyone gets their butler to make them fresh every morning ?

Just in the local supermarket to pick up some clothes for my niece. In the clothes section, there's no indication whatsoever what's for girls and for boys. Like, I'm all for ending the tyranny of gender pronouns but surely in the cases of infants who can't walk or even form syllables, we could make an exception.

I'm lounging around the house bored today, waiting for a DHL delivery that is to arrive any time before 6pm. Keeping myself entertained by browsing through After Hours and watching The Sopranos. I just wish the package would arrive so I can go for a walk or a gym session and maybe a sneaky pint afterwards also.

To the demon who decided on Christmas week to raise the price of a monthly car park ticket may you go to hell 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

You want an extra €50 due to inflation but the hourly rate stays the same, May you get 4 punctures on the same day 🤬🤬

People putting the wrappers back into the box after taking out a sweet.

Watching air crash investigation. The black pilot commenting, never ever blinks while talking to the camera. I meant never!

He usually does but given he has 16 hour days coming up I felt I'd be generous and allow him a couple of hours off 😁

The sheer volume of traffic in town the last few days, but especially today, is eye-watering. Makes any otherwise handy spin into an ordeal.

Another TA: for the second time in the last few weeks, I noticed one of the big brand, Irish supermarkets, have gone off food on display. Last time it was discoloured meat and furry vegetables. This time it was a packet of wraps with an expiry date of 20 NOV on it. They are also far more expensive than all of the competitors. Never again (and I only went there as it was the closest to me and didn't want to stomach the aforementioned Apocalyptic traffic).

Two years down now in a pandemic, and some people still don't know how to wear their masks properly in shops.

I'm finishing my Christmas cards, I'm very late with them, and my chunky gold marker has dried up. I only got it last year! 🤬

Could you not get him a drink ?

New Home

😜 He only drinks solvents and I was fresh out. I know, what are the odds?!

Anyway, I've only 5 cards left to do, but they'll be hand delivered, so they can wai. It's finally bed-time for me, TG!

I saw some bloke in the chemist the other day and he was wearing a disposable mask it was that dirty it looks like he had used it for wiping his butt, it looked disgusting.

I do think people know how to wear them but don't bother wearing them correctly.

TA'ed at myself, I'm happy that I'm not due back till the 4th (bankers hours I know), I'm annoyed that ppl who could help me catch up with my academic work(3 deadlines looming) are on hols as well!

Also, cant figure out what day of the week it is, my head keeps telling me its this or that day which its not!!!

I had such a fcuking NIGHTMARE of a day in work yesterday that I literally completely forgot about an appointment I had at lunchtime that I had pre-paid for. €145 down the drain. I'm beyond raging.

Banks re-open on 30 December. They only get three days off at Christmas.

My TA is retailers who make a face or become sour when you say you want to use a gift voucher to pay.

Went to cook the chicken pieces I bought on Saturday. The packaging was burst open ... Not sure when it happened, doubt it was open when I bought them as I'm really particular about that type of thing.....didn't notice it burst when unpacking but can't see how it opened by itself in the fridge.

Side order of food poisoning not part of the plan so in the bin they went.....fuming!!

I know, but its a commonly used phrase here to show how jammy we are(on the surface from the outside)

Poverty spec on Irish cars.

I had the joy of driving a 2010 Agila today. Christ, it was like going back in time 40 years. No remote central locking - I had to use the key to open the doors like some sort of animal. There was only two switches for the windows, which presumably meant keep-fit windows in the back. The engine was as powerful as a mask mandate too. A lot of manufacturers can get a surprising amount of power out of a small capacity engine these days, but even for 2010 this thing felt weak.

I know VRT means manufacturers cut all sorts of corners to keep the price down, but ffs....

In Tesco in Balbriggan earlier, people buzzing around aggressively with trollies, especially one twat who nearly barged into me with his trolley at the veggie section. Other people just standing there blocking up whole sections with their trollies. The queues were insane also. I'm not going near another supermarket until after Christmas.
