looking at rocks/force 8 gale? lol ok ill not ask
rains not so bad you should be used to it in this part of the world

True - *should be* but in reality we *never are* ! Irish people hate rain. That's why pubs are such a hit in this country!

I'm getting to be a real outdoor enthusiast though. I love being outside, even when the weather is fairly crap. My job means that I am stuck in front of a VDU for most hours during a week, so any chance to get some fresh air, and I will take it straight away.

i dont i prefer it when its raining anyway lol

sorry its taking so long to reply ive been trying to put a guestbook on my page and its not happening! !thing, been working on it ages too!
oh well back to the drawing board lol

How's that guestbook coming along? I thought that vampires didn't need guestbooks!

You would love it here today - lots of drizzle.

Woodpigeon

the guestbook wasnt so i put it on the backburner, couldnt do it tonight cos ive been out for a few down the pub, might have another bash at it tomorrow, dont know why it wouldnt i have all the right codes + forum number! i dont need 1 i just want 1 lol

anyway drizzle? where my aunt is she says it can be misty for weeks at a time..sounds to me

hope your well
take care

Very well thanks! Only two days to go to the weekend. No plans though - any plans yourself?

plans for the weeknd? your joking arent you i walked over 5 miles in the blistering heat on hillside in heels today! it'll take all weekend to get over it lmao nah i havnt any plans..im trying to save the pennies for a trip away coming up soon

I'm off to France on hols in three weeks. Where are you off to?

very nice too! what part? do you speak the language?

the trip i was referring to is a trip up to sheffield to see friends, just a few days im hoping to go to Ireland later in the year..nothing booked yet though

not seen you about for a few days..alls well i hope?

Mais oui! I speek a leetle bit of French , mind you its couched in a strong Irish accent so how it seems to the French i really can't tell . I'm off to Brittany.

I got myself into a right sticky situation last Saturday. For exercise I scramble along the local coastline during the weekend. It's a bit like rock-climbing, but without the huge drops! I was trying to navigate a fairly significant cliff face when I realised that all the rocks around me were loose and coming away in my hand . There was about a 25ft drop had anything gone wrong. I managed to edge myself to safety but it was a heart-stopping few minutes!

Nowt else really!

Woodpigeon

well im not to good at french, theres is a really difficult language to master but i could go shopping and buy a drink and probably answer questions in 1 or 2 word answers..id survive lol

talk about living dangerously!
you got a death wish or something? i presume this is nearby where you live? isnt there signs like;

DONT GET TOO CLOSE TO THE CLIFF EDGE!!! lol

glad your ok anyway even if you are slightly daft

Yes, I live a few miles away from the sea. There are no signs though, because they don't get too many people doing this on a regular basis!

Apparently there are lots of dolphins off the coast of Cork - I have been looking, but I have seen nothing...

Woodpigeon

with you living nearby i think it would be a good idea to put some warning signs up failing that you should carry your own danger sign lol


do you like dolphins then? you should talk to my friend Midnight Angel then shes nuts about dolphins!

That's a great idea about carrying mu own warning sign : Danger - Woodpigeon approaching!

I have only seen dolphins very rarely. There's a dolphin in Dingle harbour in Kerry that greets all the boats at the harbour mouth. He has been there for 20 years now. Incredible animals...

Woodpigeon

thats me im just a pool of great ideas lmao

my mum likes to take her holidays in the spanish islands, loads of dolphins there and more than likely a lot cheaper than holidaying in france!

you'd never guess my favourite creature ill bet lol

Might it have something to do with a small flying creature with big ears and echolocation?

I'm a bit of an insomniac myself tonight - I have to stay up late until 5.00. To while away the time, I've been up all night trying to get a guide entry ready for Peer Review - it's just finished, but I'll probably submit it on Monday.

Looking forward to the Dawn Chorus in an hours time!



Woodpigeon

it might and i do like but theyre not my favourite..my favourite would be the lol

that Amy Ant told me to write in the peer review for something i was after but what do i want to write about it for? dont see why a simple request cant be forwarded on through the correct channels to the appropriate people simple instead they want me to write a tolstoy giving my reasons!

fortunately i was unconscious then at 5 in some nightmare or other

catch you later

Peer review takes a bit of work, I'll admit. My article is on Tom Crean, an Irishman who went to Antarctica a couple of times. He's featured on a Guinness ad at the moment - I'm not sure if it is on in the UK though.

Woodpigeon

Hello

sorry its taken me so long to reply, i havnt been around for the last week due to a trip away

i havnt done any writing in ages! i used to enjoy it but its been so long, ill think about it

we do get adverts not sure if ive seen that 1 though.. to be honest i dont pay to much attention to the tv when its on

anyway i hope your well
take care

I'm off on hols on Saturday - nothing done as yet though! I'm in that "last minute get everything organised before I go" mood at the moment.

I'll be going offline for a few weeks probably, but I hope you are well, and I'll talk to you when I get back!
