College car park. Had to bring mam to the train station this morning so I said I’d come straight in instead of going home. It was sleeting here on the way to college :eek:

Got a group presentation at 11 and I can’t wait for it to be over

02-04-2019 10:14am

Couchside with a snotty nose and runny eyes. Counting the hours to work so I can get my cappuccino on the way. I'm far too lazy to go out and get one now

I bet the dentist will make up a reason for you to come back in 2 weeks

College cafe, meeting the lads who I’m doing the presentation with briefly before we have to do it. Nervous!

Having a coffee , thinking about how you never (seldom) hear anyone using the word Anorak anymore .

Grandeeod · 02-04-2019 12:18pm

In the kitchen. I've finally opened up the new Airfryer and I'm experimenting today. Frozen chips from Iceland took 11 mins and tasted fine. Gonna try fresh sausages next and maybe a fresh chicken fillet.

Food tasters needed!:D

Widdershins · 02-04-2019 12:25pm

The time change affected me in a good way. Sleeping really well. Lots of energy . Excited , summer feels promising . Trying to hold tight to the feeling .

I've made herbal /floral concoctions for friends with sore muscles, from my own garden , I dried and infused the ingredients over the winter..elderflowers will open this month so I will make champagne .

Going to watch the garden birds with my tea while the sun is out. It's been changeable today . Birds are dealing with the aphids on my roses so I won't need to use harsh chemicals, and the birds get some lunch . Nature is class like that .

and we are snowed and galed in! seeking shelter and no birds around

CrowdedHouse · 02-04-2019 1:21pm

Kitchen with soup. Baltic out in the wind., we didn't even dally at the canine message boards on patrol today.

Autosport · 02-04-2019 1:24pm

Looking at the sun and is wondering do I really live in the same country as some of ye

CrowdedHouse · 02-04-2019 1:26pm

TBH in the sun out of the wind it's not too bad but big black clouds again now.

I was just going to say, it's snowed here! so unusual but snow in April is lucky

Interesting idea!

ah well, I broke into my emergency fuel stocks, all 3/.4 bag of turf and a bucket of coal so we are warmer now..hot soup... sun patchy on the window warms the place wondrously fast. Embers all aglow. Must be easing you would think as three boy cats are out there rolling around on the grass .... not according to met.ie . That wind is like icy breath.

Kitty6277 · 02-04-2019 2:28pm

Students union (as per

) just had my lunch and I think I’ll get back to a bit more study. Doing an essay on Waiting for Godot, so in taking a break from looking for sources for my essay, I decided to watch the play, so I think I’ll continue that

CrowdedHouse · 02-04-2019 2:33pm

It's an excellent play

In work hiding. I've been very busy yesterday and up until a point today as I'm doing a three day week this week but now I've hit a lull so am hiding and enjoying it.

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1 · 02-04-2019 4:06pm

Inside to get the fire lit. It threatened all kinds of weather today but only skiffs of rain, hail and snow for a few minutes at a time. Spent the afternoon sorting fishing flies and other gear in the garage, with the doors open and sun shining in - most of the time.

Just realised all the library books have been read, so that's tomorrow's walking route decided.

smurfjed · 02-04-2019 4:21pm

Yikes, kinda glad that i got out of ireland last weekend before this nasty weather.

Waking up in Dakar and I'm going to Dakar

Is the old city centre airport in Dakar still active? I thought all operations had moved to the new Blaise Diagne International Airport a few years ago.

At my desk at work, waiting for the rain to clear.

smurfjed · 02-04-2019 4:46pm

It is active for VIP flights, the place was packed last night due to the new Presidential appointment, so we had to come to Blaise, now going back to get our people. Awesome low level flights in a jet, about 10 minutes each way.

Had hoped that we would stay until tomorrow but alas it didn't happen.

Another beautiful hotel that I wished I got to stay longer in.

Someone has to save the rest of us from such decadence and take the hit for the team.

Looking out at a lovely sunny evening, with the bird tables shrouded with birds.

I'm waiting for Jed to organise a group spin

Hitting the road to head home

0lddog · 02-04-2019 6:08pm

@ Smurf Is it true that Dakar time zonewise is an hour after Ireland even though its further east than London ?

I'm home-side. Looks like I've managed to survive yet another attempt by my GP to put me down :eek:

Grandeeod · 02-04-2019 6:13pm

I have fallen in love today. A love that was nurtured in a humble kitchen. It wasn't love at first sight. When I first set eyes on her, I admired her looks. I was filled with hope. But I needed to be sure. I needed to know what made her tick. I ultimately needed to know if we were the right fit for each other. Could we make magic together? I know the answer now. We can make magic together. We can bring joy to others by being together. Our partnerships, our union, will make the lives of others better. The wonder of it all.

I am so happy that I met my Air Fryer.:D

Is it not 15 or more degrees west, thus the hour behind us?

Watching RTE News; Lord but they are repetitive!

Looking at some of the time zone maps, I think you might me right also looks like Mali and Ghana are in the same timezone as Senegal.

Canaries are in same timezone as Ireland ( I think ) and are ( probably ?) further west than Dakar - yet Dakar is an hour behind Las Palmas

( I'm far from clear in the old head so this may be a load of tripe

)

I'm listening to BBC Radio 4 news - they are desperate to fill in the time - Isnt it time someone found the OFF switch for the transmitters ?

Trigger Happy · 02-04-2019 6:52pm

My hectic workday has turned in to a hectic domestic evening.
How can there be so many things to do before I can engage my bum with the couch?

Autosport · 02-04-2019 7:06pm

Well that walk didn’t go to plan, it’s now raining but maybe I’ll go anyway

I got very drunk on holiday years ago and got Tweety Pie on my arse. Don't regret it, but he has put on a little weight since.

In the kitchen again. Did a job on the fridge. If Gordon Ramsey shows up, it's all good in there.

Couple of friends in to watch the match and we are having a couple of cans of Heineken to keep us cool.
