    Relaxing on the sofa, admittedly still a bit rusty from last nights craft beers. Somehow summoned the energy to cook some lovely garlic prawns with some garlic bread which mopped up the lovely garlic oil a treat at the end. Twas the biz, little tapas type snack.
    Magic.
    But that was as productive as I managed all day. God damn you tasty craft beers, I mean I selected you, paid for you, gave you a lease of life, lovingly chilled you in the fridge before consuming you with gentle yet enthusiastic passion and THIS is how you repay me???!!!

    Roll on tomorrow.....

    If you need anyone to chat to during the early night, im here anyway :)
    I'm actually mad for a chat this weekend. I'm really feeling the pinch this week with these restrictions. I hate to admit it out loud but I'm feeling a bit lonely for company. There's so many friends I haven't seen in months now and my boys activities have all drawn to an end. These were great for meeting up with other parents just for a natter on a sideline.
    Usually I'd have something planned for the future like us going to Dublin to visit our friends or to Kilkenny to others.
    So yeah, what I'm saying is if anyone fancies chats I'm here :)

    Feeling a bit sick seeing today's numbers.

    Absolutely crazy.

    I hear ye all there, it's harder with the shorter days for a lot of us.. I'm here for talking rubbish ;)

    It is certainly. If I knew an end date, I would be better but this endless absence of being able to interact with people I miss is just hard. Calla, I feel sick by those numbers too. Stay safe folks.

    Ah that's very nice Auto. I didn't think I'd like a hen but I would. Two of the maids are in the UK though so who knows how things will turn out next year.

    I'm kitchen side getting sausages in to me :p

    You need to be more woke

    Myself & Seph can stand in for the hen if they can't come home.

    The Snapper is on tonight (rte1) if anyone wants to transport themselves back to Barrytown and happier times.

    Re. Smyths..The click and collect option isn't available which is a pain tbh, surely if there was a queue for people collecting separate to the shoppers it would be beneficial all round.
    I reserved in Argo and collected this morning, very well organised in there imo..queue is outside and only a handful of people inside, pay for your item, put your receipt on the counter and collect when your number is called, no contact with anyone really, I thought it was very safe there, no catalogues available unfortunately.

    Gotta agree with you DD regarding Argos. Life can go on for now if other shops get their **** sorted. They have it so well organized. I've made a few visits in recent weeks and I'm very impressed with it. Stress free. I've only visited midweek so no queue.

    Have you got a reservation number or do you need to look, they ask. If you have a reservation number, you are told to sanitize the hands and go to a particular pay point, do the biz, slap down the receipt on a marked out area, stand on your marked out spot, staff stamp the receipt, you grab and go. So fooking simple and safe. A combo online and in person system that works great. I hope they thrive.

    I'm watching Michael Palin and he's in Russia. It's from the early 90s I'd say. I was just thinking how grim and dreary the town looks but then realised how wonderful it was because there was no Covid. People can stand beside each other and talk and do things and have choice. Stupid Covid :(

    Are you mocking me ? I edited immediately and it came up as Argo and I couldn't be bothered editing again lol.

    Couchside with a hwb, just watched the Late Late as I wanted to watch Kathleen Watkins and the boy that had Covid, I shed tears during both interviews, I've always thought Kathleen was a lovely person and the interview more than confirmed it imo. The boy and his mother gave a very candid description of what happened, he's Covid free but still has very serious side affects, lovely family. Rad Hurley and a fabulous singer called Andrea did an opera song and it was gorgeous...I'm not promoting the Late Late but I enjoyed it, very melancholy here, I've just poured a beer, it's the little things.

    Mock ?

    :eek:

    Nearest Argo to where I am is on Nordside of Dubland.

    I have no doubt a large cohort of natives refer to it as indicated.

    Thats another thing about Argo - its not exactly attractive to the light fingered :)

    Listening to Andy Grammer singing Don't Give Up On Me , with 65 ten year old school kids from Staten Island. Fantastic song made all the better with the children singing and their enjoyment of it shining through , look it up :)
