    I've been in and out of bed all day, shivering one minute, hot the next. Had some weird dreams during the day, the paracetamol drives me mad.
    Anyway, feeling better somewhat now and my head is cleared a bit too.
    Back to bed now soon, hope I can sleep without dreaming or it's going to be a fun night.

    Hope you feel better soon, your grace :)

    I just had one of the nicest cups of tea in a long time.

    No sign of Leg End the last few days or Seph today!? It’s quieter without their antics.

    Basel Switzerland

    Jaysus I've a ton of mates in Basel!.. I'm friends with a biker club there.

    Home from the gym, since the photo is pretty crappy I'll throw it up here;

    503260.jpg

    I'd a terrible swim tonight, I just couldn't find my mojo and gave up after only 500m.. But banked it for a long run and swim tomorrow.

    Sitting drowning my woes with a glass of vodka, gonna walk the mutts shortly.

    I just finished watching ultimate hell week, jesus they put them poor frs through it, no getting away with banking anything on that programme.
    But fair play mak, I'd be dead after 500m swim.
    Heading bedside, night all.

    Its a great show, I watched it last night then we watched it during lunch in work today. Very realistic, but toned down and nothing like a SF selection course. Its more like a day in general recruit training.

    I used ''banking'' that training as a way to finish a crap session with a positive. I really wanted to do 1.5km tonight but I'd a sh*t day in work and although I can usually put that behind me once I'm training I really wasn't a people person this evening and little things were annoying me so I banked tonight for a longer session tomorrow.

    Do you like the show?. There's a good thread in the reality TV forum but you're free to ask me anything here if you're following it.

    Btw, I ran a 10k with some of last years contestants. They were a great bunch of guys and I've kept in touch with two of them.

    To the thread, had the mutts out but Ruby was freezing and wanted to get back into the warm house, she's such a lazy house dog. Wouldn't move in a fit!.

    Up and eating breakfast.
    I had a restless night, only slept in spurts, but no mad dreams or sweating at least, Mrs took herself in to the spare room, she still asleep going on the snoring I heard as I passed it on my way to the kitchen.
    The mornings are brightening a bit now, I can see a chink of light starting so in a bit I'll walk the dogs, I think I can manage a short walk and I'm going to work too. Man flu is a hoor.
    Have a good day all.

    Morning folks! :)

    Feeling a bit sleepy this morning, as I spent too much of the night listening to this audiobook - Why We Sleep. Bill Gates had it on his recommended list a while back. It's an absolutely fascinating listen (I assume as good a read).. It's a serious eyeopener. As someone who has diabolical sleep patterns, even the first few chapters have already convinced me get my sleep on track, whatever the cost.

    Here's a link to what Bill had to say.

    Morning all! :)

    Just at my desk, getting revved up for another day. Checking the inbox of my work email...already I see two emails from dissertation students I'm supervising looking for help on things.

    Going along to a public lecture this evening on climate change being given by a former lecturer of mine from my student days as a Trinity undergrad back in the 90s. Really looking forward!

    Hope y'all have a good - or at least non-eventful, day!

    I found some snow creams left over from Christmas. But they’re really sickly sweet, that’s why they’re still there!

    Mine is Mint Aero. Remember putting it up there to be retrieved later but I forgot about it.

    Meant to be off but in work because a colleague is away. Don't you just hate when some people have lives and you don't.

    Alright lads, I'm closing my account and I'm certain it's for good this time. Boards just ain't for me anymore. It's only ever been a bit of craic for me and I just don't find it much craic anymore like I once did. The fact that I won't be back just want to wish ye all well for the future. And thanks particularly to the funny bastards who made me laugh. Take it easy

    Nursing a Guinness hang over after 5 pints of the black stuff last night.I think the hangover is more to do about Liverpool losing than drink as when they win I'd have more than 5 and still be in great form.

    Home at last. This morning felt like it yawned on for a whole day.
    My advice to people leaving boards because its not as much craic is the same as to people leaving facebook because people arent writing as much interesting or funny stuff.
    Make it better craic. Be the change you want to see.
    Im afraid some of us find our funny taps broken at times. Thats life.
