Where are you right now? Part 5

TG1 · 14-01-2019 7:24pm

Home, survived the day... Just! Now in jammies and slippers with the fire lit. Sympathies to all the sinus sufferers!

Trigger Happy · 14-01-2019 7:27pm

I need to stop reading this thread. Am imagining I have a sinus infection now.
Or is it real?

Kitty6277 · 14-01-2019 7:30pm

I really shouldn’t have opened this thread while eating dinner

Well be thankful it’s not nose 🍄

I am home about to light the fire whack on the heating and root myself to the couch for the night

GoneHome · 14-01-2019 7:39pm

I've had a constant sinus infection/cold for the past month, I wonder is it the mild weather, never had it going on this long in previous years

Yeah, and there goes my plans for mushroom soup for my tea.

Kitty6277 · 14-01-2019 8:02pm

Homeside, but about to head to a public speaking class shortly. I have no problems with speaking publicly, but I talk very fast without even realising it, and I’m wondering if this will help with that.

JupiterKid · 14-01-2019 8:14pm

On the M7 motorway, passenger in a car (relax!

) on my way down to Kerry for a couple of days.

I don't like mushrooms per se, but I make a few concoctions around Halloween...

Grandeeod · 14-01-2019 8:34pm

Between my tech desk and the kitchen. Finishing a job and making my dinner.

Edward M · 14-01-2019 8:51pm

Making a few calls to a few slow payers, its amazing the amount of calls you get when they want the job done and how hard it is to get them on the phone when it's time to pay up. I'm useless at this part of the job.
Feet up, a magnum in hand, going to watch the footie.

Gremlinertia · 14-01-2019 9:27pm

Fascinated by the sinus conversation, i do nasal rinses and massage too. Usually get sea salt and snort like a good 'un :pac: Mushrooms though.... Off to google with me..

Well as it happens, I’m getting teeth removed so I’ll have loads of room
I’m a romantic at heart after all

Not many of us romantic souls left Lexie, although peoples concept of romantic varies wildly. Some people consider holding hands romantic, others consider inserting hands where they shouldn't have any in as romantic. Thinking about it now, calling oneself romantic covers all angles. Well played Lexie, well played

Sirius your new name should be Sinus Boner

Ted_YNWA · 14-01-2019 9:39pm

Don't make me get the hose out.

You lot are not safe to be left alone for any length of time.

gifted · 14-01-2019 9:57pm

Couch.....missus has sinus/flu problems....had it as well 2 weeks ago.....middle chicken came home from a play date and is barfing her ring up.....I'm sick of sick people in this house....just bugger off sick people....

Last day of freedom.
First day back to real work tomorrow, haven't been there for 18 months!!

Looking forward to getting a routine back, even if it is shift work!

Gremlinertia · 14-01-2019 10:37pm

4Ad · 14-01-2019 10:46pm

Couchside looking at Railway travel programme on TV with smughead Chris Tarrant.
I love train travel..
About to book a flight, hostel and gig in London..

Grandeeod · 14-01-2019 10:51pm

Crashed out on the couch watching a film I havent seen in a while. Outbreak on syfy. Gonna have some chocolate with an ice packed soda water and lime.

Does chris tarrant not ruin it?. Love trains but not sure how i would take to him presenting

Ted_YNWA · 14-01-2019 11:06pm

At least he has a better dress sense on the train programmes than Michael Portillo on the bbc ones.

Kitty6277 · 14-01-2019 11:29pm

Couchside, public speaking class ran longer than expected and I’m glad to be home. Think it’ll help, there’s some drama involved too which keeps it entertaining

Toastmasters?

Edward M · 14-01-2019 11:41pm

Feeling sleepy, I'm off to bed before I sleep in the chair. I get grumpy if I'm wakened to go to bed, so they'd just leave me here, and I'd be twisted in to a knot if I was here too long.

Kitty6277 · 14-01-2019 11:47pm

No, it’s actually run by a woman who used to teach me drama in primary school, she started classes tonight

He's done a few of these train journey travel programmes, they are good apart for him..he was in the Swiss Alps last week, it was amazing. Spain this week and Ukraine next week..

Thanks for tea, hope you liked the Choc Hob Nobs !

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 15-01-2019 12:51am

In bed, clean fresh sheets, fresh pjs and after a roasting hot bath and then shower. My 4th/5th wash of the day.

When I am rich I will have a maid who will change my sheets daily. The best feeling ever.

Kitty6277 · 15-01-2019 1:07am

Bedside, hoping I’ll be able to get to sleep at a reasonable time tonight. Will try sleep after this episode of the Vampire Diaries

Ariadne · 15-01-2019 1:24am

In the leaba about to drift off to sleep. Night all

Gremlinertia · 15-01-2019 1:28am

Researching stinky drain fixes but wishing i was freshly showered and getting into a bed with fresh sheets like Shoes *stares daggers*

TG1 · 15-01-2019 3:57am

Bedside but wide awake.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 15-01-2019 4:07am

Still awake too, knee deep in conspiracy theories

Gremlinertia · 15-01-2019 4:18am

Also awake but at work so that's probably a good idea....

smurfjed · 15-01-2019 4:25am

Have you tried putting salt down the drain followed by hot water?

smurfjed · 15-01-2019 4:27am

Nespresso time on the balcony with the mutt, listening to the birds and the sound of prayer as we wait for the sun to rise. Absolute bliss.

Judging by the amount of sickness going on in this thread, there is no way that I'm going back to Ireland before March or April

Gonna be vineagar and baking soda

La.de.da · 15-01-2019 4:41am

Awake too. Is there a full moon or something.?

Soda crystals and vinegar should work grem.
Followed by some disinfectant mr price do a nice pine one.

Happens here when there's been no rain for a while.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 15-01-2019 4:41am

Dishwasher tablet and scalding water is what I use!

Still in bed, hyper

smurfjed · 15-01-2019 4:42am

I use that for cleaning surfaces not unblocking drains.

La.de.da · 15-01-2019 4:56am

Vinegar and soda crystals for unblocking, pine to make it smell nice. Or dettol, I love the smell of dettol.

Gremlinertia · 15-01-2019 4:58am

The bathroom will be getting a doing in the morning, just have to check the vent first to make sure there isn't a problem there.

Time for a cuppa, anyone??

Macdarack · 15-01-2019 5:01am

Not to put a downer on it but I'm in a hospital room with my family beside my dad who's slipping away after a brief illness, its quiet sad but I'll cherish this time for life.

Gremlinertia · 15-01-2019 5:12am

Sorry to hear that Mac, hope it's peaceful

It is safe out here! I have no intention of "going over" for the foreseeable future, if ever.. islands are great...

Still have a permanently blocked sink here; and still no washing machine plumbed in.
Oh! Today is the anniversary of ESB finally connecting the power here! Only took FIVE MONTHS of hassling the council and ESB... the final breakthrough was a call from our barrister as they could have been sued as they cannot leave old and disabled without power

Fascinating watching the engineer climbing the pole... the electrician then had to come as there is a demarcation dispute :rolleyes:

It was rough that day and the electrician was terrified...

I never take power for granted..
