    Mine was to be installed tomorrow , problem with the ESB pole outside , so that's to be rectified within five days by the ground crew , then they'll give new installation date ...
    At the other house , they had to dig up the path at the side of the house !


    Anywhere I look up and see an ESB pole I seem to see SIRO catenary wires. Reckon they have really got the bit between their teeth. They should be encouraged to cover the entire country and get them to operate it in the same fashion as ESB networks & GNI are operated.


    Sorry for the O/T rant Mam. Hope the evening finds you well. I've been like W's dog the last few days :o.

    Awwwwh, somebody loves his Papa :)

    He's almost my shadow, there's little I do without him with me. I often joke that I'll have to get him gym membership lol

    He's funny because I love open water swimming but he gets terribly worried and tries to stop me going into the water, then comes out to try pull me back onshore.

    I could bore the thread to death with his photos

    Well home from the gym, and Richo is snuggled up beside me. Its a pity my other Staffy won't come out with me, but she has terrible anxiety issues and won't leave the house.

    She's a beautiful little girl and would love the beach if she could get over her fears of the outdoors.

    Bedside in my somewhat newly designed room. Had an old really tall shelving thing in my room that took up a lot of space but wasn’t used all that much, so I decided to move that out of my room. Got one of those cube storage stands in The Range and a nice full length mirror (I had been after one for ages!) and I now have an entire corner of my room that I can use that was taken up before! Funny how small enough things can make a big difference, especially in a small space.

    Deskside. Was kicked out of the house by the (now) nine year old who told me to get to work early to get home early and in time for his birthday celebrations.

    ...my P-47 is a pretty good ship, she took a round coming across the channel last trip, just thinking about my baby and letting her rip, always got me through so far...



    Morning all

    It's a cold windy one this morning 3.3C

    Cool in the kitchen with the usual coffee porridge toast

    Well I think my solution tomorrow is coming from a call centre in India and a KN Networks person. Luckily I have a Cadbury's Caramello and Aldi Red Lemonade Zero to ease my pain. Got Mrs G off to bed too so no old fashioned baby making stuff.:D I was only jesting earlier and don't need a fecking book either!. Once she's asleep I head off with my book. Its like a Monday night in 1970.:D

    It was Tinariwen, a group of musicians from the Sahara region (north Mali, in particular). The gig was good but I wasn't. It was way too hot for me, and I'm getting old. Three midweek gigs in 20 days is a lot when you don't live in Dublin, and have to travel by Luas and an hourly bus (which I missed by two minutes last night! :( ).

    I'm sitting in work now, thawing out from the cycle in, but probably still trying to get rid of the chill from sitting at the Red Cow for nearly an hour last night.

    Out of a consultation with Rhumathology, threatening to put me back on the chemo because I’ve a viral infection I can’t shake off and the nurse reckons there’s a bad flare on the way. I’ve never had a “flare” really so it feels like I should be going to dunnes to buy bread like we did for the snow.

    Going to weeeeeerk now

    Marvelling at the effects of a few months of steady daily eating! I forgot how a good diet shows in your appearance and vitality and strength. Even sleep quality, concentration, memory and humour. It seems to be a slow very gradual process but it's brilliant to see results now.


    The winter sunlight is gorgeous. I was getting sick of the bleak weather before.

    Not too bad, but not too great. Got bloods and urine tests but won't know results until Friday. She also thought it might be kidney stones.

    Working at the moment while listening to my mammy chatting to my little sister in Vietnam.

    Carside at college, for now. Got a flat tyre on my way into Limerick and had to turn around and go back to Tipp to get it sorted. Got it repaired instead of replaced so that saved me a few bob.

    Will soon be heading coffee shop-side, meeting up with another lad for coffee in a bit. Oh me nerves!

    It's normally 3 taps per day but I tend to tap more than that and it works fine :) if you use Apple Pay you can tap over €30 :)

    Oh oh…there has been sneezing and watery eyes and a red nose.
    But the eternal optimist in me is saying this is great as I get to crack out the hot whiskeys tonight.
