Does anyone know how to connect to Irish Rail WiFi? The intercity trains. It never, ever works for me. No login page ever appears. That’s today’s trivial annoyance. And I know Irish Rail WiFi is shite but my data never works in the Midlands and there are noisy children that I need to drown out.

I got it to work for a few days at the start but since then stopped getting the login page so had to use my own data.

Incredibly crap.

Had to reset my phone a few months back and managed to log in again for 2 or 3 days and then nothing.
Any other place I go to automatically picks up Wi-Fi and if it's a repeat visit then connects automatically.

When my husband decides that the wettest morning we've had in a while is the ideal morning to clean the chimney.
He does all the outside "manly" bits and i have to spend the next hour cleaning the messiest mess you can imagine.
And the involvement of a wet dog and an 18month old didn't help.
Me nerves....!

Having to explain to customer service staff their own co's refund policy.

As an extension of that, me having to know their refund policy to avoid being ripped off.

* It worked, I got a 100% refund instead of the 75ish% I was strictly entitled too.

Cats!

An idiot some distance down the road (very rural area) let's three cats roam all night. Saw one with a bird it had just killed in our garden this morning. Same said idiot waxes lyrical about the beauty of nature all around but refuses to see the damage leaving cats to roam at night does.

My fella never opens the feckin window after having a shoite despite me asking, nay, TELLING him umpteen Jaysus times to open it. I'm surprised I still have working nostrils the amount of times I've inhaled his noxious bowel evacuations.
Open. A. Window.

Oh, and warm toilet seats are horrid.

The amount of crap that pops up nowadays on websites, from regulatory notifications like cookies and data protection notices, to over-zealous marketing popups for newsletter signups, 'Create an Account' reminders and sales notices. I miss the days when you could just navigate to a website without having to click 3 or 4 buttons to first get rid of all the rubbish.

You may have pop up windows blocked. You also need to tick on a teeny tiny box (IIRC) that confirms you agree to their T&Cs, and supply "your" email address when prompted to do so (again, IIRC). I usually use info@irishrail.ie.

Thanks. The thing is, I wasn’t even getting the expected login page on Safari (which is my preference to use over Chrome) on which to tick the T&Cs box and give my dummy email address. That was the problem. For the first time the other day though, I opened up Chrome instead and the login page appeared so I finally got it working. Maybe I have popup windows blocked on Safari. Though I get the popup window for Dublin Bus WiFi on Safari so that might not be it.

Incredibly crap.

I finally managed to connect via Chrome the other day (usually use Safari) and crap is indeed the word! But I can’t access data in the midlands ever so it’s better than nothing especially if somebody tries to contact me via WhatsApp or Messenger.

Invited to a friend's for lunch at 3.30 yesterday. Got fed at 6.
I was beyond hangry at that stage and just felt sad and wanted to go home.
Dinner was really lovely but I was out of sorts all evening.
Another friend was 2 hours late - they appeared to be waiting for him.

I'd have had lunch if I knew we weren't eating until 6.

Stayed in a hostel and considering some of the monster 16 bed or 28 bed places I've been in a 4 bed ensuite is considered top of the range for a dorm room. Usually a 4 bed ensuite is their most expensive option

People in hostels travel and gotta be up early. I know this well as I do it myself but I pack the night before, never rustle plastic bags and other common sense ideas.

The guy in my room left his phone charging in the corner all good but my TA is when his 4am alarm went off he ignored it for aaaaaaaaaages and it rang out

5 minutes later it rang twice and stopped. Same happened on 10 minutes and 15 minutes so I guess he has an apple watch or something and can control his phone and was snoozing the alarm. Eventually he got up before the 5th ring

I am amazed I do not hear of killing sprees in hostels. Some people would drive ya to murder
