Could you imagine if Auto kissed the blarney stone.

:rolleyes:

Non existent in Waterford

Auto what are you doing going to wasterfurd to look at castles? You should be coming to cork and viewing the castles here ! 😎 There far better 😎.

I've done a lot of work in Waterford over the years and it's a beautiful place. Some of my work is appearing on TV at the moment (small bits from 2019) in an attempt to get tourists back there. Waterford Castle is a fab spot. So is Lismore and Dungarvan Castles. Reginald's Tower in the city centre is another distinctive spot. Worked in Cork a lot too and love it, but to refer to Waterford as Wasterfurd even in jest does a big disservice to the place.

I LOVE WATERFORD!:D

It was a joke, no disrespect to waterford people intended.

Gremlinertia · 27-07-2020 8:56pm

I remember copy books branded lismore when i was a kid, always wanted to see the castle, much like nenagh milk and a few others back in the day

I'm sure it was, which is why I said "even in jest". My point stands and thanks for your note about not offending Waterford people.

Grem you can come and stay with me and I'll show you lismore castle. Beautiful spot. I'd invite Auto and CH but they'll be.. ahem.. busy! Waterford Castle is a very romantic spot!

I just gave away my location purely so I could tease Sephers.

They make me think of vikings. I think it's the vocals. They're OK. I could think of worse things my neighbour could be playing.

I wonder will Grandeeod guess the railway bridge/station?

I Am Nobody · 27-07-2020 10:34pm

Love going to Waterford,except to the HD shop there.Bunch of thieving pricks.

IamMetaldave · 27-07-2020 10:36pm

@ Leggy,

that hurts! But I understand

@ Sephers, thanks for the empathy bro!

@ Sardonicat, you’re not wrong. They’re Norwegian. 100% Vikings!

I’ve just found another song that will be on repeat tomorrow.

Bedside after a late walk to knock the aul exercise stats up a bit for the day.

Whatever you do, don't lick it. Apparently, that's really bad.

Samsgirl · 28-07-2020 1:38am

Bedside. Had the cheesiest packet of Tayto's earlier and the heartburn is wicked.
Totally worth it though.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 2:16am

Ah, finally time for tea.

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 4:01am

Good morning all.

Clear blue skies, so pool time for me once I’ve had my coffee.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 4:08am

When you swim do you call it laps or lengths? I've seen a few say laps in the last while, i always said lengths

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 4:24am

My watch calls them lengths, I wouldn’t consider myself a swimmer but more a pool lounger. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m using the pool because I’m not supposed to rather than having an immense desire to do so

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 4:25am

Ah you've got to get a kick some way since you're under a sort of house arrest

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 4:46am

Yep, gotta get my thrills somehow

:) If all goes are per plan, I.e no one tests positive or inconclusive, I shall escape home shortly and although my nearest pool is only 150 meters away, I have never used it

:)

My main reason for using the pool is to absorb Vitamin D, I have an app called Dminder, it shows how long I can stay in the sun and the amount of “D” that I shall absorb, the interesting thing about this is the involvement of BMI, for a BMI of 25 I would absorb 100% of the available “D”, but for every 1 BMI unit above 25, it drops by about 10%, So a BMI of 30 will only absorb 50% of the available “D”. This really turns into a vicious circle as those who most likely need Vitamin D are the ones who have the hardest time absorbing it.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 4:49am

I'm pondering looking into a sleep tracking app or some such.. Do i want to know how bad i suspect it is or will it surprise me?.

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 5:03am

Once again there is an APP for that, I dont have a regular sleep routine for obvious reasons, so i started tracking my sleep using SleepWatch, it works with the Apple Watch, its interesting as i can see the impact of drinking booze or coffee before sleeping on my resting heartbeat, on good nights I can have a sleeping heartbeat of 43 and that goes up by 20 beats if i was drunk. It also have the function to print great reports.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 5:07am

My only worry is i'll get a bit obsessed or depressed :rolleyes:

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 6:00am

Oops just jumped into the pool with two currency notes worth over €100 the pocket of my shorts

So happy that it’s hot and dry air here as I have them drying out.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 6:20am

Many the time i decided to stroll into the sea with me cash in me pants, no harm done :pac:

IamMetaldave · 28-07-2020 7:15am

Morning all!! Nespresso-side before my morning pier walk.

I use the SleepWatch app too, it’s help me build good sleeping habits and it’s had a major part to play in my journey back to proper restful sleep.

Gremlinertia · 28-07-2020 7:53am

what a beautiful day it is

Lovely morning down the pier this morning.

Singing Taylor Swift to myself. What have I become?!

*checks testiclay are still intact*

smurfjed · 28-07-2020 9:40am

Just watched the cops pull over a car for tinted windows, cop gets out, makes a video of the car on a phone App with the number plate, and gets back in his car and drives off. Driver will get an automatic fine which is linked to his bank account for ease of payment.
