    Don't you love when you are cleaning up and you find a bar of chocolate? It's still cold and wet but it's not as miserable as it was 10 minutes ago.

    Morning folks! :)

    Feeling a bit sleepy this morning, as I spent too much of the night listening to this audiobook - Why We Sleep. Bill Gates had it on his recommended list a while back. It's an absolutely fascinating listen (I assume as good a read).. It's a serious eyeopener. As someone who has diabolical sleep patterns, even the first few chapters have already convinced me get my sleep on track, whatever the cost.

    Here's a link to what Bill had to say.

    Morning all! :)

    Just at my desk, getting revved up for another day. Checking the inbox of my work email...already I see two emails from dissertation students I'm supervising looking for help on things.

    Going along to a public lecture this evening on climate change being given by a former lecturer of mine from my student days as a Trinity undergrad back in the 90s. Really looking forward!

    Hope y'all have a good - or at least non-eventful, day!

    I found some snow creams left over from Christmas. But they’re really sickly sweet, that’s why they’re still there!

    Mine is Mint Aero. Remember putting it up there to be retrieved later but I forgot about it.

    Meant to be off but in work because a colleague is away. Don't you just hate when some people have lives and you don't.

    Alright lads, I'm closing my account and I'm certain it's for good this time. Boards just ain't for me anymore. It's only ever been a bit of craic for me and I just don't find it much craic anymore like I once did. The fact that I won't be back just want to wish ye all well for the future. And thanks particularly to the funny bastards who made me laugh. Take it easy

    Nursing a Guinness hang over after 5 pints of the black stuff last night.I think the hangover is more to do about Liverpool losing than drink as when they win I'd have more than 5 and still be in great form.

    With the year you are having you must be in right form all year so.

    Very busy morning at the coalface, more or less up to date now so going to take it handy for the afternoon, also making arrangements for meeting up with extended family at a big family gathering on Saturday evening, damn looking forward to that.

    Home at last. This morning felt like it yawned on for a whole day.
    My advice to people leaving boards because its not as much craic is the same as to people leaving facebook because people arent writing as much interesting or funny stuff.
    Make it better craic. Be the change you want to see.
    Im afraid some of us find our funny taps broken at times. Thats life.

    Home early, brought some stuff with me that I can finish off later if I feel up to it. Jesus it's a miserable day and I'm not feeling the mae West just yet, so I'm going to sleep for an hour and hope I feel more energised after that.

    Hope everyone is well, thread moves so bleedin fast. Currently on a bus to get to a very important rendezvous... Cutting it real fkn thin. Head still hasn't fully recovered from the Darby on Saturday and the subsequent bender that followed. I'm going on a busman's holiday in the morning though to the land of tulips, clomps and Van Gogh, and that's keeping me spirits up somewhat.

    I got a great deal on a suite of furniture and it was delivered today.
    I'm languidly testing it here curled up with my phone :)
