Evening all

Had a lovely day down in the beautiful Wexford, Sun shone all day and went to visit Hook head and Loftus Hall, can’t believe Loftus hall is gone into such disrepair

I remember it being this beautiful big building and now it looks very rundown.

I'd be too chicken to go into Loftus Hall

I sped past it in fear the day I visited Hook.
It was a nice summer day but was blowing a mini gale at the lighthouse.

Is that the place where they were playing cards with the Devil?

I'm the same. Hate even driving by. Years ago when it was lying empty, my brothers and their friends climbed over the wall and camped out on the grounds. Didn't sleep a wink I'd say!

Autosport · 26-08-2020 7:44pm

I didn’t go on the tour today but have done a Halloween tour a few years ago and it was brilliant. I’m normally a jumpy person but i wasn’t afraid at all inside

Hmmm for sale you say, may go and visit a few banks

Oh well,it appears I'm experiencing Cluster FUKC Headache. For anyone who doesnt know what that is, its when you expeience one migraine attack after another which means you can simultaneously experience different stages of different migraines with pain being a constant. They last on average 4 days up to two weeks. As this is day three I'm hoping to get lucky. Strangely, I've experienced no visual aura and no disturbance to my vision. Small mercies

Have you ever tried "bio energy"... Yeah I know ðŸ˜… but my friend got into it and she needed a guinea pig, my migraines did clear up....however I did get pregnant during that time and they say pregnancy can settle migraines, increase in hormones or whatever.

Might be worth looking into.

Very true though, it is in bad nick.

It is not the same house that the devil appeared in though. Built after that date

Alejandro68 · 26-08-2020 8:44pm

We visited Pollnagollum cave awhile back.And it is just beautiful.We didn't go too far in but hope to at a later date.For the LOTRO fans it is also called Gollum's cave.

I don't think so. I think a fire destroyed the original building.

So I had to Google it, even though I have been there!

It's an old free Mason's hunting lodge in the dublin mountains (Mount pelier Hill)

It's pretty ruined at this stage, but the view over Dublin Bay is beautiful.

There's the usual haunted stories about it.

It is just a hole in the ground overgrown.But the water inside is just amazing.We only went in about 10 metres before it dropped off sharply.But have plans to explore it more.At the moment the storms make it impossible.

I'm soon to be showerside and am contemplating an early night, it's been a long week and it's still only Wednesday.

26-08-2020 10:21pm

Only catching up here now,long day in work the grocery shopping for the folks and of course they decided they'd have dinner here, they have unbelievable appetites and ate more than I'd eat in a week.

I had a fierce itchy palm last night so did the lotto for tonight after work ( I haven't do the Irish lotto in years), the fella serving me printed a euromillions by mistake so I took both even though he didn't mention the mistake, I'm convinced now that I'm going to win as I also saw a shooting star last night and a star that seemed to burn very bright and the disappear. I'm not superstitious or mad but I'm grasping at straws here lads, please let me win lotto gods,I need about 6 months sleep and I'll donate to good causes...maybe lol.

Hope all the holiday makers are enjoying our gorgeous county, try not to be too depressed when ye have to return home.ðŸ˜‚

I did a few months in Japan for work a few years ago. Its a mad place. But so interesting. Well worth the visit.
I never got outside Tokyo though.

Afternoon all. I think I'm finally better. Last evening's visit consisted of lying on the bed with me snoozing and him watching Netflix. I'm sure his cuddles have curative properties. Nearly fainted this morning in the bathroom and had to scurry to my bed and lie on it in my birthday suit with my legs elevated for half an hour. Since then, I've been feeling fine so hopefully that was the last of it. Now all I've got to do is catch up with all the laundry and housework that's built up. But nor before a big, greasy sausage butty with beans on the side. Can you get those in Japan?

27-08-2020 1:21pm

I'm in "werk". Was late thanks to poxy traffic but sure there is no one to check up on me

smurfjed · 27-08-2020 3:35pm

Why is it that OFF days are shorter than WORK days? Flew back to my lovely hotel on day 8, haven’t done too badly this month as I had 17 days at home, but now expecting to be back here for at least 3 weeks.

Great to see Witchie posting again.
