    Chilled in a post-yoga class bliss, very relaxed, watching a recording of an episode of Sex and The City On The TV. :) Will flick over to the news afterwards.

    Wishing your dad well as he gets prepped for his surgery, Grandeeod.

    Exhausted, life seems to be taking more out of me than usual. I believe a custard pot might restore me, hint hint!.

    I'm a jack of all trades this evening. Looked after my Dad today. I was settling down towards the leaba earlier when Mrs G headed to it.:D So me and Ms G just had a real chew the fat at the kitchen table moment and set ourselves up for this Friday night to talk about life, Star Wars, Art, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future and why the World is in a mess. This is genuinely priceless stuff. It's a school night and I'm on duty in the morning. Makes life worth living in these crap times.

    These are the things that make our lives worthwhile, aren't they G?
    Friday night will be quality time , enjoy , and best wishes to your father for his upcoming surgery :)

    Trying to figure out if I'm just getting lazy here or just getting old and tired , probably a combination of all three :pac:

    My eyes are burning with tiredness Mam. I'm so out of practice the last 12 odd months. There was a time I'd do these drives and work at the same time. Despite being tired I really feel great that my Dad is in good spirits and Ms G got the chance to have a chat with me. It's been tough for her. A difficult school year trying to mange starting secondary amid all this covid thing. She just needed her Dad tonight.

    Got called to work this morning just after sunrise, so beautiful clear skies.

    My home city and where we normally take the mutt swimming.

    Will be the Worlds tallest building by the time it’s finished. Over 1000 meters high, the original plan was 1852 meters, but that changed :)

    Oh sweet divine jaysus what is that? That's the scariest thing I've seen since somebody fed Gizmo after midnight. And yet part of me still wants to try it :pac:

    Work time for me again, a lovely 12 hours since I walked into the hotel. Night or day it’s all the same.

    Maybe it’s time for another frozen yoghurt :):)

    It was just far too nice a day to have to slave away at my desk indoors...

    ...so I knocked off early at 2pm and took a DART out to Blackrock, where I walked along the coast path to Dun Laoghaire. Warm bright sun and haze, but a slightly chilly sea breeze. :)

    Chilling on the sofa with a novel now.

    Tableside, just finished dinner.

    Lovely day today, popping out to the farmer's market for lunch was the break I needed in a drama-filled day at work.

    Beyond that, working with an open window was the most I could get from the good weather today.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    Today was grocery shop, grass cutting and a completely fooked up experience trying to pay M50 tolls. Online? Nope server error. By phone? Nope. Constantly getting the reg wrong when you speak it. When I eventually got beyond that and typed my card number etc it still made mistakes and ultimately kicked me out. Payzone it ended up being. Is it always this fooked up? I used to have a work tag.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,292 ✭✭✭0lddog


    Did you have a rasher or two with the liver ?
    They go very well together ( pinkish liver and crispy rashers that is )

    Was that Thomil I saw holding PM hair back ?
    decent thing to do in the circs

    About to translate myself to The Bed :)

    You disgust me. Wash your mouth out with soap this minute young lady! :p

    Endless excitement here as I gradually increase the depth of the arse shaped indent on my couch. Still, I haven't eaten liver so I've that going for me at least!

    Woke up late, pondering some netflix and chill with more bed.

    You don't know what you're missing. My dad used to cook an absolutely divine "Berliner Leber". That's pan-fried beef liver served with loads of sauteed onions, caramelised apple slices and mashed potatoes. Absolutely divine! Wish he was still around.

    Alternatively, I've heard that fava beans and a nice chianti go well with liver as well :P :D
