    My little cactus flowers , still a few buds to open yet , and they close back up at night .

    Is it very bad that I can think of a few places (and a few people) that I'd like to shove those two long cacti :D

    Me and Mrs G dodged the showers today in Tramore. Smoked cod and chips and a pint of milk while sitting by the sea. A couple of ice creams for dessert. So long since we were by the sea. It was a tonic. Back at base and I'm gonna have a cold beer. I've prepped a couple of toasties for later.

    Wandering around in circles. Confused. Had COVID. Got later vaccinated. Wear N-95 at work. Also when inside coffeehouse. Double mask when not in N-95. Fortunately, work provides 95, so my poor little budget has not been impacted. Since we only have short-term and mid-term studies, and no long term, we are learning about this virus as it rolls out. Including variations. Hence, the confusion. Plus, studies can only suggest, and not prove using the scientific method. So I err on the cautious side, and walk about university and town like a bandit.

    Haha Mam of 4. Have not danced in mask at coffeehouse. Time to try. Now, the music is moody, so I'll have to wait for the tune. :D

    When we used go to Tramore, my young fella, as a small boy used to ask to go to "Dollies". I never used correct it because it was so cute :)

    I spent many a childhood summer day in Tramore as my uncle had a B&B on William street in Waterford city and we could stay for free.:D There was a great chipper further up on Lombard street and that's where I first tasted scallops in batter. Considered cheap as feck back then, but became a delicacy years later.:D

    Hey, don't stop me now! You know as well as I do that it's a kind of magic.

    That being said, I expect some sort of reaction and am currently waiting for the Hammer to Fall. You could say I'm Under Pressure :pac:

    Streeeeeessssss.

    Finally getting into the shower, having been up for hours. Don't know who needs a mood tranquilizer more - me or Grumpy. I might suggest tossing a coin for it.....

    How's Limpy Gimpy today?

    Deadly craic in work earlier.
    I'm gonna change names here just to play safe...

    So we're all sitting around stopped for a cuppa and the news is on the radio. It comes on that "Drew Harris has said there could easily have been a loss of life following last night's gun attack in Blanchardstown........"
    All of a sudden Trish blurts out "I'm always telling yee about the sea gull issue in Dublin and none of yee ever believe me".
    So there's a brief silence and then Peter speaks up and says "What the fcuk are you talking about Trish? What has seagulls got to do with anything here?"
    And she replies "sure yer man said it there now on the radio there could have been someone killed after another gull attack"

    Oh the laughs, one of the lads lost half a mouthful of his scone laughing :D

    One of the others explained it to her eventually after. Fookin magic though. She'll need a few days to live that one down :pac:

    In fairness to.her, I've seen gulls swooping down on people on O'Connell St. Brazen feckers with no fear.

    Even more stress here. Off for an emergency appointment with the opthamolpgist in half an hour. Someone decided it might be a good idea to tell me he had double vision since he woke up an hour ago.

    Can I have valium and boobie hugs, please?

    Home now, and the walk didn't kill me for once.... have another x-ray on Tues and then the decision will be made on surgery or no.
    I think I'll have some wine tonight .... United game on tv
