    Yep... abandoned...trees growing thru it.. furniture, crockery etc all there...I guess they picked their suitcases up and just left

    That must have been so strange. I have seen houses abandoned but none with crockery and furniture still there. You remember the Chernobyl incident? Or are you too young?

    I'm keeping busy by sorting through stuff and tidying, it's amazing the crap you accumulate. Jobs that had been put on the long finger, along with some I'd no real intention of ever doing, are getting done.

    I had cleared the "I'll just leave this here and worry about it later room" but it's slowing filling up with piles for the charity shops and landfill. It'll be like an exciting day out when I can finally get the stuff out of the house.

    Some work work to do each weekday as well, but not anywhere near a full day.

    I have chicken breast on the bone and cauliflower cheese in the oven and doing a bit of spinach to add some colour to the plate.
    Spent today in a bit of a funk, but went for a walk in the rain and feel great again! It’s the little things.

    In terms of things to keep busy, I am watching Parks and Recreation for the 500th time, my go to happy show and learning Russian using Rosetta Stone. There are 3 months free for students but looks as if anyone can use it. I can recognise the difference between boy, man, girl and woman...

    Hope everyone has a good evening and that those worried about loved ones get some good news.

    I just finished doing this! So satisfying and wonderfully distracting. It's like shedding an old skin everytime I finish a long overdue task!

    The persistent feeling that I'm going out or meant to be going out has nagged me all day. Without thinking, I put a dress and makeup on. Maybe himself will surprise me and turn up, but with his mum unwell, I doubt it.

    Going to get a photo of an interesting flower just opening.

    I know a photographer (online acquaintance) who produced a book of urbEx photos. It's absolutely gorgeous, "Orphans of time". Its been on my lottery list forever.

    You're not doing your running on that path on the right side of the barrier are you????

    I'm terrified of heights. The thought of that is making my stomach flip flop.

    @Grandeeod, “Supping a bottle of Canadian“ is that a beer or whiskey?

    Jaysus Smurf, I gave up the whiskey years and years ago and miss it so much. Tonight's tipple is the Canadian lager by Molson. We were regular visitors to Canada and nearly emigrated there 10 years ago. We like their beer.:D

    I’d love to know why my pictures are always ar$eways!

    That’s one of the seals that lives down between Sandycove and Dalkey, there’s loads of them. He/she was having a great time this morning lounging in Colimore harbour.

    Whiskey is one of life’s finest delights to a point, the present price of a bottle of Johnny Walker around here these days is 700 euro, that’s for a basic 30 Euro bottle from Tesco’s, but supply and demand are dictating the prices.
    I’m enjoying my days drinking Budweiser Non Alcoholic, I guess for purely psychological reasons than actual enjoyment.

    So have one for me :)

    So true, but that doesn’t bother me, neither did skydiving when I was a kid, but now watching the wife hanging over the edge of Horse Shoe falls or the Grand Canyon gave me the shivers :)

    Someone eventually came looking for me :)

    Got a proper chuckle out of being afraid of cows. Aww. They’re basically huge dogs. Loves attention, being social and hugs and kisses, as you can see :D

    I’m laying down bored but being kept semi entertained in WhatsApp with how dumdum some people can be. Tempted to walk to the shop for more wine but only straightened my hair this morning.
