    Y'know what annoys me? On RTE's new weather map (which I generally like), the most random of place-names pop up on the radar.

    Tonight I spotted Adrigole and Calverstown. A geography nerd like me never even heard of those places. Couple of weeks ago I noticed Monagear, which I know well but is spelled MonageEr locally. God dammit.

    The cloud cover depiction is very vague. It's a bit like manufacturers adding touch buttons to everything when simpler is better.

    I get what you're saying but I'm smirking a bit because I was in Adrigole a couple of months back and worked in Calverstown, although many many years ago, was more of a townsland then 😁

    looked at my TikTok inbox for the first time in months, the sheer volume of spam, scam, weirdness and just 😵👀.. there just doesn’t seem to be any effective moderation on that site….

    I must have deleted about 200 messages and blocked as many accounts. Not the most fun way to spend 25 minutes but needs must…

    I sometimes have the opposite problem. If I go to the shop with my brother, he likes to park in the furthest spot from the door.

    "Any chance you could park a little bit closer to the entrance? The carpark is empty and the rain is torrential.".

    Temu - adding stuff you don't really need to make up the minimum order to get the item you want.

    TA trying to book tickets for Open House Dublin and their website is crapping itself as it does every year.

    I got up at half six (having gone to bed at 1am, awake again between 3:30 and 4:45am) to make myself and the place presentable because I was expecting someone that could call any time between 8am and 1:30pm. I'm struggling, struggling to stay awake and I'm freezing, too.

    I've just realised that today isn't Thursday, so I'll have to do it all over again tomorrow, when they're actually due. FFS...
