Oh god avoid IKEA like the plague on a Sunday. We made that mistake once and even herself said she'd never go back on a Sunday ever again.

Don't think there's any way out of it I'm afraid.

I'm just gonna think of the brownie points that will be needed over the next two months while cows are calving!

Jaysus my definition of misery. I wouldn't be interested in that kinky rope play.

As for ikea... the world knows my opinion of that maze.

Enjoy the time away.

Ah it's supposed to be a good show. It's a night away anyway. We rarely get away without the kids, as much by choice as anything.
I know what you mean about Ikea though. Have been there a few times and it's tough going.

Got brokedown on the motorway near Athlone on thursday night with the jeep and trailer of sheep, forgot about FBD breakdown cover and walked to the nearest roadside Phone, jasus, they nearly wanted me to sell my soul, they weren't going to risk doing something for someone with no money,
Anyway, thought of FBD then and got sorted but they wouldn't take the trailer, so had to go through my phone contacts then to get someone to pick up the trailer.
It's a fuel system problem.....not something you'd expect on a jeep with only 67000 km on it and 6000km since the last dealer service

Not trying to offend anyone, but a contractor up the road has a 131 model. 128k kms on her. She does nearly no towing only a bowser in silage season. Needed a whole new set of injectors, fuel pump the works. €2800. Dealer to be fair stood over it for him. These are trading on their reputation since about 04 - 05 and are not a patch on their ancestors.
Much more comfortable but not the workhorse they were.

I reckoned it was a bad omen to have it giving trouble at this stage, hopefully it's something in the diesel, I changed supplier for the last 1200 ltrs after 40 years with the one supplier

Plenty of lads playing around with fuel. Been a victim of it here. It'd be great if you knew you were getting what you paid for without the 'additives.' Managed to get a cheque out of fuel supplier to cover repairs to my car.

I see the PS have excelled again, poor sargeant Mc Cabe..... a new low, hope he gets millions, it must be the most horrendus thing to be accused of

Lads around here reckon having your own tank is a bad idea too as it is hard to keep it clean enough for modern engines.

The only thing worse than actually being accused, was the whispering campaign that seems to have gone on, when word was passed around that there was a file on him regarding child abuse.
Excellent way to keep other Gardai from supporting him and his claims.

At least if you are openly accused of something, you can defend yourself.

What's pissing me off about it is Tulsa were doing what they should be doing, acting on allegations from the Garda. But now they will have to wonder are they setting someone up again

Lucky he didn't top himself.

Crude statement (i apologise) but a lesser man might have succumbed to the pressure.

Irish army would be he in bed by now only have enough ammo to put up a 15 min fight

kollegeknight · 12-02-2017 01:37AM

Hard days work put down. It's cleaning sheds etc.
Home in time to read some bed time stories. (Goodnight tractor is out favourite) I fell asleep. OH wakes me just in time for a friend to call in. Single man, no child or farm commitments, works nights. My only saving grace is the blues brothers is on.

Anyone at the Cork v. Clare hurling league game last night? Seems they played the first few bars of the Italian national anthem before they realised and presumably playing the Irish one. You can hear the crowd laughing in background.
Proving their willingness to host next year's Ireland - Italy rugby international following the match in Rome earlier in the day.

Check out Balls.ie to see brief video

kollegeknight · 12-02-2017 12:17PM

Ha very good. Dunno what anthem would have gotten the Clare lads going at all.

Absolutely dying today... man flu. OH made pancakes today and I only ate 1. Haven't even popped into the shed yet.?Its our family day today but she will have to drive.

TITANIUM. · 12-02-2017 12:51PM

Fecking timing belt just snapped on the jeep. It would happen on a Sunday, where in the name of God am I going to get one today. Trapped on out farm not.
