    The popping noise a fruice bottle or jam jar makes when opened for the first time and melting a bar of chocolate between my legs and eating the chocolate all melty!:)

    I get the fruice bottle and the jam jar popping but that thing with the chocolate is just plain weird!

    At lunch today, I bought a sandwich and ended up giving most of the bread to the ducks

    The little ducklings are getting big compared to just a few weeks ago! :)

    I was trying to make sure the ducklings got most as the drakes are bigger

    I used to take my son into Stephen's Green to feed the ducks when he was little. Between fending off the seagulls, pigeons and other assorted bully-birds and stopping my son from eating the stale bread himself, it was an excusion fraught with stress! On a similar note, watching the rush-hour traffic at the Leeson Street corner of Stephen's Green come to a halt to let a mother duck and 4 ducklings cross the road, aided and abetted by men in suits and women with power shoulderpads, was little short of amazing! Go, ducks!

    Ah lovely.
    There's certainly a bit of bullying going on when you feed the ducks. The big drakes would just push the ducklings out of the way. So I make fake throws to distract them and then get the bread to the ducklings and their mother

    Go for a spin to Portmarnock. Before you enter the village coming from Baldoyle there is a bridge over a marsh and stream and the place is full of ducks.
    Cars stop all the time and you'll see ducks waddling across the road, cutest thing ever.
    And even when it's all rush, rush, rush in Ireland, brilliant to see people take a minute and give way in their cars and jeeps :)

    At the mo... its working outdoors:D..glorious sunny mornings, clear blue skies erupting with birdsong, a squirrel nibbling on a nut in a pine tree overhead as I plant the borders... red robins diving for breakfast as I unearth a myriad insects... fresh air to fill my lungs, sleeping like a baby, thinking positive and fighting fit and healthy!!! :D:D:D

    Eating fun size Mars bars with a cold glass of milk, but you have to eat the mars bar in a particular way. I like to nibble all the chocolate off each side and then eat the chocolateless caramel/nougat part in one bite. NYOM!

    Glad to hear it. My OH can't watch me because he thinks it's disgusting. :o I love when you can get one side of chocolate off in one go, without it breaking up, So satisfying!

    That is like a victory over the bar when you do that. And also when all the caramel stays stuck to the nougat instead of trying to attach to the chocolate

    I had a packet of minstrels last night that I'd been saving for ages. Ate them straight out of the fridge and they were so crunchy and delicious. I'm coming home for a visit soon and I'm going to bring back a suitcase of them!
