    Wire coat hangers when they clatter and get all tied up. Cheapish yougarts whose tops won't come off easily.

    When you plan something for ages and then a friend (or two in my case) come along and try to change your plans to suit them and a new plan they've piped up with at the last minute.

    Like ffs if you want to make plans, do so before others make theirs and confirm them.

    You're mid thirties, not mid teens. :rolleyes: :mad:

    The unnecessary literature they send with the electric/gas bills.

    Every time. Straight in the bin. Nobody fcking cares, they just want to see how much the bill is. Yet its always in the envelope, some smiling fcker, or a kid or a dog.

    TA that I had to take a lift with a lunatic with non stop road-rage. Two full hours of listening to swearing, shouting, face pulling and steering wheel thumping every time a pedestrian didn't sprint across the road fast enough. I'd report the person if I didn't think they'd lose their livelihood if they got put off the road.

    when my 2 1/2 year old son comes into my (home) office, and hits the power button on my laptop's dock, and sleeps the laptop, and I'm unable to wake it up, the only solution is a forced shut down and restart, losing the 4/5 excel sheets I had open, as well as a load of email drafts etc...


    edit: When I've rebooted the f**ker, and he comes in and does it again!!

    Autosave is your friend. No-one should be losing work when a laptop crashes or sleeps.

    TV Licence Inspector called today while I was out. Licence expired with 2 months. 5 days to get renewal or else. Forget the Hutchs and Kinahins, us licence dodgers are serious menace to society. The same week that RTE gets €107Million for 9 acres including the Fair City set. Sure poor oul Joe Ray Ryan and co are on the breadline. Pity they wouldn't take the voluntary redundancy thats being offered in the near future.

    I'd been feeling a bit sensitive yesterday about my recent career move and had a sense that the role I am in is not right for me and that I am not working to my full potential etc. When I went onto facebook this morning, my memory from this day last year was passing my professional exams :(

    TA the older I get the less I seem to know what I want.

    Also TA filling peoples heads with rubbish about following their dreams - who gets to do that really?

    In real life what happens is, you do get Charlize on your yacht.....but your Ma decides to come along at the last minute.

    My TA is the weather

    Travelers from country A who travel to country B which has higher income levels. Walk into a bar in a central location of the capital city and then start to moan about how prices are so expensive paying blind respect to basic economic fundamentals.

    I went into the bank with a €50 note yesterday, looking to lodge €20 into my account.

    I was told I could only use the self-service machines, and they couldn't give me change, so I could only lodge the €50 or nothing.

    You are a bank! How can you not give me change for a €50 so I can make the lodgement I want to!

    It was too close to 4pm to even go somewhere else to get change, and I needed the money in the account to book a ticket, so I just had to lodge the €50 and then withdraw €20 (because of course you can't withdraw multiples of €10), leaving me short a tenner for the weekend. Pain in the arse! :mad:

    My daughter was allowed 2 euro from her purse to go to the shop yesterday. She couldn't find her money so instead helped herself to Mrs Baps purse, but could only find a 50 euro note for the trip to the shop. She bought loads of sh*te she's not allowed eat or drink.
    She bought sh*t for her friends and gave them random amounts of money as well.

    There was 20 euro left by the time we found out what was happening. :mad:

    The new back area of O Connells (Galway) is pretty etc but there's one major flaw.
    I was there the other night, there was about 10 of usand we sat at a little round table looking at the different windows which all have a Ye Olde Shoppe vibe.
    Anyway in the middle of these are the gents toilets. The door into them stays open and the cubicles are lined up straight ahead which is bad enough, but when the men who like to leave the cubicle door open go in it's just gross. Why would a seat be pointing into a toilet. I hope they're not leaving it that way. All it needs is a door closer on the way into the toilets and then they can pee wherever they like for all I care.
