My English boyfriend on a phone call to an Irish person saying “ah sure it’s grand”. Always gives me a giggle when he’s talking to an Irish person and says words in an Irish way

They use "grand" for "fine" a lot in England.

Not exactly the same but mine's started ''ah sure it's grand''. Very cute.

Getting clothes dried outside in lovely sunshine and getting them back indoors just before the rain. (My rock and roll lifestyle

)

Sitting on the balcony just out of the rain, since it's still warm enough. There's something about the sound of rain that allows me to sit still and just enjoy it.

My madonna lillies and climbing rose are open and being explored by bees .It's sunny . Taking my tea outside again . Heavenly .

Dealz had LOADS of Galaxy Golden Eggs, and they were only €1 each!

KatW4 · 10-06-2019 9:29pm

I hate school. But on the TH side of things.... 14 more school days and I am free!!!

ILoveYourVibes · 10-06-2019 9:31pm

Skincare.

Bredabe · 11-06-2019 1:14pm

Working flasks, Ibuprofen, salt and water, my th's for today.

wildwillow · 11-06-2019 5:48pm

Needed to contact Protect our Water today about a septic tank registration from years ago. Had no email or password or registration number. Usual start to phone call, busy lines, recorded etc so I settled down to a long wait.

Almost immediately a lady answered, listened to my plea and said she would put me on hold.

Within a minute she was back with all the information, sent the required form by email and updated my record.

Later got confirmation of updates by email.
Took all of three minutes. Thanked her profusely of course.

We can be super efficient and it made my day.

Falling asleep easily and staying asleep through the night.

This past week I’ve finally not been struggling to get to sleep at night due to working ridiculously long hours and being mentally and physically exhausted.

I love sleep.

is_that_so · 11-06-2019 6:13pm

The laughter of schoolkids.
The silence of the night.
People greeting you on the street.
That first few minutes just after you plonk on the sofa - bliss.

Hugs (yes, plural!) in the Library from a child who's at an age in which he should be embarrassed to do so in a public place (imagine, in front of other people!!); he also said "I missed you!"

I missed you loads, too, kiddo.

I have a little planter on my windowsill full of flowers and a mini tree. I put 3 little green plastic kittens in it one day as I had nothing else to do with them.

My house is in the middle of a working yard, and most days the kittens are in different places when I come home! Today one was exploring life outside the planter, climing my window courtesy of blue tack.

Whoever it is is putting serious effort into dreaming up places for these kittens and it really entertains me!

The sight of my cat balmed out on the back wall in the evening sunshine

Easily known she has a fur coat as it still isn’t that warm! &#55357;&#56881;

No work tomorrow...happy days!

black forest · 11-06-2019 8:46pm

What a day...:P

...finally managed to decipher critical commands in a bot for discord. Since two hours i can add twitter posts to my little personal vaper server additionally to Youtube and RSS feeds. The old try and error method still works...slowly but with a result, ha! :eek::pac:

And i pimped my ride! The old soft shell pannier fell apart so it was time to reactivate the old trustworthy mesh basket. Works as it ever has. Please note the fancy holder for the back light. :P

Exhausted...but happy.:D

New Home · 11-06-2019 9:18pm

Those are all actual words.

Edit: Ah, bike! I thought you were on about vaping, or something... Not my day, brain-wise.

LirW · 11-06-2019 9:49pm

I had an interview today, it went well and I was invited for an observation day!

Great weather so attacked the garden and then walking a favourite trail for a couple of hours. Dog tired now

Widdershins · 11-06-2019 10:32pm

night scented flowers, cloudy lemon cider in the garden , much needed 'head space'

This is it · 11-06-2019 10:34pm

Booked 2 weeks off, a week of that will be spent in Portugal

Kitty6277 · 11-06-2019 10:44pm

New moisturiser that smells amazing!

madmaggie · 12-06-2019 12:06am

I have a motley collection of furniture, most of it flatpack. I was following a home improvement page on Facebook and have been encouraged to do up some bits and pieces. It's going better than I expected.

Boom_Bap · 12-06-2019 11:16am

Being uber prepared for the day.

Sephiroth_dude · 12-06-2019 1:35pm

Th seeing tuxedo cat again sitting on the grass across the road the other day and I slow blinked at them and they gave a slow blink back 😀 and then I got too close and they ran off 😗.

Kitty6277 · 12-06-2019 2:55pm

Just booked a holiday with one of my best friends

SaltSweatSugar · 12-06-2019 5:08pm

I finally started moving stuff into the new gaff today. I bought myself a double railed garment holder thingy that required some DIY. Put it together myself with minimal cursing.

And I discovered the most beautiful kitty hangs around the garden.

To avoid another case of catnapping you might take care to remove the location data from the jpegs before posting

I was given a fabulous plant for house/dog/horse minding last week.

If they're slow blinking back you're in good standing, just have to take it slowly on the distance.

You AH folk are so demanding!

I promise I’ll post a photo of garden kitty once I get a good one!

Bredabe · 13-06-2019 1:27pm

A month ago, I called a service I use a lot, to ask a question about an upcoming purchase, the youngster on the phone hadn't a rashers of what I was asking her. Same every time I've called them since then.

Yesterday I called again, same youngster sounded far more confident and was able to respond to my question competently.

'Go girl', look at you learning things you need to know for your summer job!

Was just at the Spice Girls in Wembah-lay London.
Gig was brilliant, and great sound quality unlike Croke Park.
But omg, there seems to be only one way out so it was just a mass of people standing and shuffling forward every few minutes. We didn’t go straight for the tube but it took nearly an hour for a 5 minute walk.

Deebles McBeebles · 14-06-2019 8:49am

Birds. That is all.

Widdershins · 14-06-2019 10:51am

48 hour shipping option from a Lithuanian site that has everything I need for the weekend . A UK shop would take a week or more to deliver ...

LirW · 14-06-2019 11:38am

I had a training day today for a job I applied for, it was super easy and was offered the role on the spot after an hour.
I can't even put into words how delighted I am.
The nicest thing will be signing off in two weeks!

Still can't believe it

branie2 · 14-06-2019 11:41am

Going to see MIB International at the cinema this evening
