    Too many people in my lane at the pool this evening. Had to cut it short after around 30-35 mins because I was sick of looking at other people's feet and being slowed down by the crowds. :mad:

    Double check but pretty sure you're entitled to a free test.

    From website:

    "Ensure that the average lead time for an appointment at an individual test centre is less than three weeks and no greater than four weeks. The customer will be provided with a test free of charge where an appointment cannot be offered within a four week period provided that:
    • The Customer has not declined a test appointment (either confirmed or provisional) more than twice, at a centre of their choosing, for the test due at this time

    • The Customer has not previously accepted a booking outside of the 4 week period."
    They must be reading boards. Got a text for an appointment in two weeks:D

    When you are starving heading out for a 90 min run make sure your run doesn't take you past 4 Chinese, 1 Indian and a Chipper!

    The special kind of asshole who wraps their Christmas tree in big black tape, puts it into their car or van, drives to Ticknock woods and dumps it into the trees at the small bottom car park. WTF, did they think they were releasing it back into the wild or something ? FFS, the hard work was done, the scummers could have driven to one of the Christmas tree recycling points.

    Mrs g advising warning me about the fat wailing toolbox coming to croke park.

    It was the same tip off that she gave me for beyonces fat ass concert in the O2

    Edit: I should add that my ticketmaster now thinks I'm gay. Squeezed in between the likes of kasabian and the boss is Mickey c-nting buble and backstreet boys. You should see some of the recommended gigs it throws up :(

    That's definitely worth a rant!

    Dun Laoghaire Bay 10k on on the same day as the Rock n Roll Half Marathon again this year. :(

    Want to do the half but the Bay10k goes by the end of my road so it's too handy not to do.

    Use of the word "team" in the workplace. I can't stand most of you pr1cks and only put up with you 2 days a week as it's easy money. A team belongs on a pitch. We're not on a pitch and I don't ever intend being on a pitch with any of you so feck off with yer wankar terminology.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,182 ✭✭✭Beef


    I'm detecting a distinct lack of synergy in your team Ososlo. I think you need to organise a roundtable to touch base and tear down any Chinese walls.

    I feel physically sick after that.

    TV programs, especially soaps.
    I almost liked them at one point.
    For a while I tolerated them.
    Now I can't stand to be in the same room as them.
    I get all snappy and irritable (more than usual).
    Today I felt like throwing something at Emmerdale.

    And that program Miranda, wtf is that, is there a new category called reality soap, urgh - like Mrs Browns Boys without the live audience.
    The Late Late is not that much better - Red Hurley and the Menopausal Choir.

    Wedding speeches
    Inside jokes especially in wedding speeches
    Weddings. Personally I prefer funerals. Shorter speech normally.
    People who talk about a team sport that they have an interest in similar to "We are going to win X this year" when they don't play any.
    People who don't know how good they got it and find fault at everything.
    Sky News story's like the one last week. Breaking News ..... Gay footballer. ffs that ain't news Who cares?
    Why use two word when you can use use 5 in news media. Mr X died by drowning. He drowned.
    People who have never traveled but know it all about every country as they watch discovery.
    Those who can't use google.
    People who put things for sale on adverts or donedeal 2nd hand that cost more than new and the people who buy them.
    Those who tap their feet or click pens.
    People who commentate every single last thing they do in the workplace and have to get everyone involved in what they are doing.
    Operation transformation being the reason why I couldn't things I needed to cook dinner today as they were sold out.
    The self importance of staff in discount retailers. It is fine for me to wait 10 mins as you are messing around with some till or something, but then your busy when you throw everything at me to bag.
    Collection for elitist organizations at the till. If you want to go sailing buy your own f'in boat.

    The page where you enter your address on the adidas.ie website. It doesn't correspond to any Irish address that I know of, then for most of the fields if you enter information it gets lost in the internet ether somewhere, so you end up having to put pretty much your entire address on one line separated by commas, then you send them an-mail and receive back their standard generic auto reply within a few minutes. Then you're worried that your stuff will get delivered to the wrong address. It doesn't but you're still sort of mad anyway.

    Wet runners and the absolutely horrific stench off them. So bad they have to be left outside.

    Me turning corner, thinking "my that's a big puddle", Jeep drives through puddle, me soaked head to toe. Nothing like running in the rain.

    When I was still reasonably young I used to see my friends and family at weddings. That was great crack.

    Getting a little bit older I used to see them mostly at Christenings. Still good fun, but usually stressful because there was an ever increasing amount of toddlers to mind. Not much of a party but still fun.

    Now I'm an old geezer and I only seem to see them at funerals. That f***ing sucks!

    Crack at a wedding? Is that an Austrian tradition?
