    Glad it's on a Sunday so properly treat myself. Might have a full Sunday roast with turkey if weather cools down a bit by then.

    Number 7 of 11. Well that’s a little terrifying.

    Phew! Couldn't feel any less Christmassy, weather wise. 😎🍦

    Happy Rudolph Day!!!!

    Had a lovely sunny day, lots of ice-cream and a nice outdoor dinner.

    Practiced my Christmas carols on the piano for a while this evening, watched Virgin River on Netflix, and and topped the day off by listening to Christmas FM tonight before going to bed. 🙂

    They keep saying the heatwave is going to end and it just keeps rolling on!

    Imagine only getting paid annually. 😂😂😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,351 ✭✭✭Littlehorny


    Payed weekly and it's the only way to go imo.

    At least i can keep track of the overtime , never could if payed monthly.

    Do most get payed monthly in this day and age?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,475 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Haven't Been paid weekly since I left superquinn back in 1995 🤯

    Cant imagine being paid anything other than monthly now what with all our bills being monthly direct debits.

    Not Christmassy at all here, the weather is lovely, and I just had an almond magnum 😎

    Hope everyone had a good Rudolph Day! 🦌



  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 24,974 Mod ✭✭✭✭Loughc


    I had a Turkey and stuffing sambo for lunch. No cranberry I can’t find any out of season.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,351 ✭✭✭Littlehorny


    Not Christmassy at all with this weather. I am on a weeks holiday from work and am laying a new patio and got sunburned all on my back yesterday.

    It's not too bad this morning but the t-shirt will be staying on today, going to get it finished today as well so I can enjoy a few days before going back to the salt mines 😄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,475 ✭✭✭✭DvB

    To celebrate Rudolph day I got a tub of heroes I regret nothing.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    ^ I bought a tub of celebrations 😄



  • Registered Users Posts: 98 ✭✭bmwfan


    Happy Rudolph day

    Only 2 to go

    Picked up a santa plate in the range today, shops are full of Christmas bits and pieces already



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,641 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Hope everyone had a lovely Rudolph Day! 😊

    I normally wear Christmas socks to mark the day, but only had flip flops on today as it was so warm! It's nice to have a couple of sunny days this time of year- as much as I love the winter, weather wise, I'd prefer a short one. 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,971 ✭✭✭SarahLil


    Hey elves I hope everyone had a great Rudolph Day, the weather was so nice yesterday I actually got my dates mixed up I thought it was today 🤷‍♀️



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,351 ✭✭✭Littlehorny


    Happy Rudolph Day for yesterday everyone.

    Three quarters of the year gone! 😮😄

    We polished off a tub of celebrations last week in about 3 days... usually 3rd favourite on the list after QS & Heroes they were bought as a gift that was returned as being excessive (birthday presents) and didn't last long at all... love the little bountys & malteser ones!!

    Galaxy went first and Maltesers second 😋



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,865 ✭✭✭TRS30


    Belated happy Rudolph Day all.

    Had turkey and stuff at a hotel carvery on the way home Sunday and polished off a box Roses pretty much on my own while away!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,475 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Can't believe we're less than a week from the second last Rudolph day of the year. With it being a bank holiday is anyone doing anything to mark it?

    We're heading down to Kilkenny for a few days so will have a festive guinness or 2 to mark the day with dinner that evening... 🤨

    I always love the October mid term break as we tend to head down the country for a few days & when that's over we're into the Christmas season in reality. Last year we went into lockdown so we had to cancel our planned trip to Killarney, and again like last year have used very few days annual leave so far so really looking forward to the break now.

    I'll be stripping out my kitchen!

    Will try to do something Christmasy to mark the occasion.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,471 ✭✭✭CheerLouth


    Throw on some Christmas tunes while you work 😀
