It wouldn't make it to the fridge here. Chocolate goes in your tummy.

Drivers at filling stations who take an eternity to drive off once they've filled up.

So they get their petrol, go inside and pay, then back into the car, and then ……..

Three or four mins later they're still messing about. Doing what I don't know? and there's a queue of other cars waiting to fill up!

Very annoying.

I opened the new milk, instead of the old milk😠

Look I know weather forecasting isn’t an exact science but for late next week and a sporting event I’ll be going to, RTÉ, BBC and Accuweather, between them are all over the kip with the weather forecasts.

For the 6 hours I’m interested in according to them its going to vary from calm and sunny to pissîng rain…… another says dry, cloudy but very windy…All 3 sources are at odds on all that and the expected temperature too…

SuperBowserWorld · 14-09-2025 12:17PM

Having to time the dog walk between the showers. And having to choose light rain over heavy rain. Irish weather is back big time.

Meta TA

When you post this TA

"Some **** making a load of noise on a motorbike. I don't get it, if I wandered around making that noise I'd get arrested, but it's somehow ok to drive all over the place making that noise."

in the wrong thread.

And worse still, when they are sitting inside having lunch with their fecking car parked at the pump. I went into a garage one day, a very very busy garage to ask if the owner of such a car could move it.

And there she was relaxed as could be, sitting down at a table. Meanwhile a guy with a huge tanker of fuel couldn't get in and I couldn't get out. All because of her. She stood up as slowly as possible and made it clear that I was disturbing her. Flipping heck! Pity about her!

My brother dropped his car into the garage for a routine service yesterday morning. They've managed to lose the key.

His wife has the spare in her handbag but she's up north for a few days as her mother is sick.

So I'm driving everyone around this weekend - nieces have multiple activities on Saturday / Sunday including shopping. So much for relaxation!

castletownman · 14-09-2025 12:40PM

This is very trivial.

But watching the World Athletic Championships and it triggers me that they still pin the athletes names onto the singlet as opposed to having their names printed onto it like a jersey in any other sport.

It flapping around when I'm running would drive me mental personally.

I was watching a bit of the athletics yesterday, and was going to post a TA about the commentary in the Steeplechase. At one stage, one of the leaders fell and lost about 10 places, but the commentators didn't notice for about 10 or 15 seconds. 🙄

And they were regularly getting the names wrong, leading me to think they were watching it on a phone or have really bad eyesight.

gormdubhgorm · 14-09-2025 03:05PM

Heard a Christmas ad a few days ago, today I have a bit of a cough and put the heat on…..

Sgt Hartman · 14-09-2025 05:51PM

Watching Man U getting beaten 2-0 in my local in Balbriggan.
On the bright side though the Murphy’s Red is going down nicely.

It's just that bit too far away and it's borderline whether a ridge of high pressure will build over us, drying things up, or whether it'll stay showery.

Anything beyond 5 days is called FI when forecasting weather, meaning Fantasy Island. We're a dot in the North Atlantic and the slightest change can bring very different conditions.

My best advice, I know not what you want to hear Strumms, is hold out until Tuesday/Wednesday you're in the 5 day window.

Occasionally, like with the Beast From the East 2018, a pattern can be seen 10 days away, deep in FI.

Online clothes retailers that have free delivery for over €50 spend and the garment I bought is €49.99.

Oíche Na Gaoithe Móire · 14-09-2025 07:14PM

This is a TA and something I observe with amusement.

Around the world and particularly Western Europe, which has become very secular, we have a strange phenomenon. The right wing crowd are having a new found obsession with Christianity! Look at all the flags with references to Jesus in London yesterday.

I think it's mainly being used as an opposition default to Islam. A load of the gobshites even talking about a new Crusade!

kneemos · 14-09-2025 07:34PM

Out for a spin on the bike,came across this lad looking for the bus stop. Apparently the Guards had confiscated his car for no insurance. He said he had insurance,but there was no answer when he rang because Sunday.

Anyhoo why would the Guards abandon the lad on the road? He had another 5k to walk when I met him.

odyssey06 · 14-09-2025 07:57PM

Bork? Dont mind if I do.

SuperBowserWorld · 14-09-2025 07:59PM

Property show on RTE with dramatic piano and strings like someone has discovered a cure for cancer after a lifetime of struggles through poverty, and world wars, but it's for an en suite bathroom.

Seems strange. I got pulled over last year for doing an (inadvertent) illegal U-ey and had no insurance disc at the time (very long story). I was fully prepared to have to deal with a lot of hassle but the Garda was like "You're fine, I can see on the system that the car is insured". They've had access to the national insurance database since at least least year, so unless yer man was on a garage or open drive policy, they would have been able to tell pretty much immediately if he was insured or not.

Insured or not why would they leave someone on the side of the road?

I could take a guess, but this probably isn't the forum for it.

What annoys me about the weather forecast on the 6 one news is they start by telling us what happened today. We fuckin know what happened today it's over now. Forecast means what's going to happen in the future. My house has windows I already know what's going on now.

Their new graphics are shoite as well. Make it simpler lads.

Awake all flippin night 😭 Not exactly ideal when I'm starting my new job this morning. Tbh, though, the only real surprise is that I didn't fall into the world's deepest sleep 20 minutes before the alarm was due to go off.
