    @Poochie-5, have you noticed any changes to your behaviour since the vaccination? Around here I’m starting to see a lot more mixing and less people using masks.

    Gearing up for the Ireland game. Tech desk converted to man cave for one. Three friends going live with me. Beer, nibbles and grub set up for afterwards. Once again trying to recreate a night out of some sorts with a boozy takeaway on the way home.:D

    Me personally no, as I have family members I would worry about, but I do feel a bit more hopeful that an end is in sight.

    Regardless of how frustrating ground life is these days, my office view never fails to cheer me up.

    May I ask where that is?It is an amazing photo.And also do you ever see these places and wish you were down there to just explore?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 13,971 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    You'd need an intermission or a few ad breaks for that!.

    I remember Titanic having an intermission as it was considered on the long side. Pretty sure it wasn't up to the four-hour mark.

    Currently watching Sylvester Stallone's film Cobra, one of my cringeworthy favs. Love that car!

    It’s a place called NEOM in Saudi Arabia, home to THE LINE :) Red Sea is on the other side and Sharm El Sheikh is 50 kms north west.

    I have driven through these mountains but haven’t explored.

    One of my essential workers is back from her holidays on Monday, so back to normal for me. 7 meetings over the course of the week. No rest for the wicked :D

    I have never heard of these places and thank you for sharing them. When things have come back to some sort of normal again I will hope to see these places myself.

    There are big plans for this place, they have finally realised that their country is physically amazing.

    What are the plans? A resort of some kind? It is beautiful,I would love to own that island,lol.I wish now I trained to be a pilot to see these amazing places.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 125 ✭✭AlejGuzman68


    Since I know you are a pilot now. I am curious to what has been the strangest thing you saw on your travels?

    Dublin Airport Authority have actually won the contract to run the airport in this resort.

    Fingers crossed for me for the lotto tonight,lol.I can't wait to see how they develop that into a resort. I do hope that they don't over build it as most places seem to do.

    Smurfie, beautiful pics as usual.
    Do you ever fly over Ireland?
    I'd love to see all the shades of green.

    I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale; handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail; only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick; I'm so mean I make medicine sick.

    That's what I've been up to ;)
