I'm watching breaking bad in work, trying to look busy but I'm on episode 6 since 10am. Its where he's starting treatment, and I'm TA that I feel sick at the sight of something that's not even real. Think I'll switch off before his hair falls out.

Stick with it...Or i will send to Tuco to see you:D

ALL food fads. Eat a varied diet with everything in moderation. Everything else is rubbish.

And don't start me on the organic issue. Yes my garden is organic because it benefits birds and insects but I am pragmatic when it comes to how mass produced food must be farmed. My home grown fruit and veg certainly taste better but the varieties used in gardens are different that those grown for the required yield. Organic commercial varieties taste the same as non organic of the same varieties.

Try five cold, greasy potato chips! That is one I remember so well... then a friend put a note through the letterbox telling me to hide them in my pocket and I did.

Having to drive a fair bit of distance everywhere from shop to shop to get a bloody bin tag for today.... :mad:

Lots of places were out of stock, of a lot of things, from holidaying lorry drivers.

I had a feed of pork-belly in a rather smart bistro in Limerick the other day. Proper classic peasant stodge, bah. Daycint. :cool:

The word "tronche" is knocking about a fair bit lately, with countries getting "tronches" of money from the IMF, ECB and what-not. I'd like to get a "tronche" of something just once - doesn't matter what, potatoes, kerosene, lampshades - just to see one in front of me and to ascertain what kind of an animal is it. Like a hectare, or possibly more of a firkin? I want to live, dammit!!

Last time I heard that it was a sure lie

Two annoyances rolled into one incident earlier. Was in Tk Maxx buying a new pair of shoes when I noticed a little girl of about 5 or so crying right near me. I was the only person near by and naturally enough asked her could she find her mammy and she said no. Asked her what colour hair she had and that I'll find her for her. Obviously wasn't going to get too close to her being a stranger and all that but I did scan the floor looking for a woman fitting the description. Eventually found two female members of staff who'd be trained in dealing with such matters and left them on the case.

Mother was found anyway and the staff actually acknowledged my involvement but do you think the mother did? Not even a cursory glance in my direction. Didn't even seem to comfort her daughter. I'm not a thanks hoor, but I know if I had a kid that got lost for even a split second I'd be very thankful towards the person who found them. And I'm not one for over-protecting children either, but surely it's not too hard to keep one eye on your child when your in the wide open space of a large retail store?

Got deadly shoes for an upcoming wedding though

That is more than trivially annoying :mad: She'd be the very one whingeing and crying on national tv if her child disappeared into the back of someone's van and vanished. Seriously..

Jaysus, it's amazing what becomes fashionable.:eek: I remember my mother boiling up a big pot of belly pork every week for the dog in the 80's, no tinned food for the pooch it was all belly pork and beef hearts.:D

McChubbin

God, I'd kill for some pork belly ramen right about now. *salivates*
Trivial Annoyance: Got a great quote on my next tattoo and finding I have no time to save up and get it seeing as I have a wedding coming up that I'm not looking forward to due to certain people I don't like being at it.
Also, apparently ripped jeans and a lumberjack-plaid shirt is not appropriate attire for said wedding, thus necessitating a hunt for clothing I can just about afford. Urgh. I don't want to go but it's family so I have no choice. PLUS I'm expected to buy a gift.

If I ever become a Hollywood action heart-throb person, I shall assume the stage-name "Bellypork Beefheart", and I have you to thank!

Asos have a good sale on at the moment, there's 70% off a lot of dresses, so you might find something you liked. I got a pair of gold sparkly shoes, about 3 inch heel, pointy toe, in pennies for 7 euro (had in black too)
You could have a really nice outfit for under 50 euro.

Then just toss money in a card rather than worry about gifts.

Me furkan hole. That's happened to me a couple of times over the years, I pick the babby up and bring her to Customer Services.

You see a bargain a pair of "all terrain" runners of a very good brand name starts with Salo ends with mon, reduced from E125 to E75, nice fit, great support inside, good looking lugs/sole, buy them get them home wear them out next day, like a newborn deer on the wet pavements, no bloody grip or traction on them or any wet smooth "terrain", tar, concrete, paving, so what is ALL terrain, should it not be "some terrain", or is it just our terrain is different to wherever makes them, wouldn't want to be up a mountain or something and needing grip, very disappointed. Lidl ones were only E20 a wee while back, should have got them, grrrr.

I'd be terrified they'd think I was kidnapping it though, so I see where castletownman is coming from. I was coming into my estate one evening back in October or November and the entrance is in is real bendy and all trees before you see any houses. Some kid was after falling off his bike, panned out. I abandoned my car with the blinkers on and walked him home because I thought if he got into my car Id have been arrested.

Plus there's the whole "he's a strange man therefore he's automatically a peado" vibe that is common place these days.

I take not one jot of notice of all that tripe'n'meballacks. You should report the feckless cunnoxes for child neglect if they pull that "Aaah, stranger driving a car!!" crap.

Or... is it the Graf Zeppelin? Is it a wounded walrus? Is it some awkward-looking cnut who's wondering where his car-keys have gone to?? No! It's... Bellypork Beefheart! Huzzah!!

Outrageous simpletons who think if they sit on the outside of a seat, pout and put headphones in, that they're entitled to two seats on a packed train. TAP TAP TAP! Excuse me there.

Also, feeling sick. And coming down the stairs on a bus. I hate those stairs at the best of times but got super lightheaded just there. See me panned out like a lizard some day at the bottom of a dublin bus stairs

Sounds like low blood-pressure, girlie. Aroo aytin proper? A check-up wouldn't do any harm.
