Hello there
hows things on the other side

Howdy Eóin!!

How goes it, sunshine ?

Sorry I missed this for so long...I always forget to check these messages for some reason ...

not to worry

it goes fine
now ive only got 55 mins till i can go home

how goes it over there then
is it all rugby fever with the world cup over there

Aye, I've got about 45 til hometime, so we're somewhere close to the same timeline !!

Suprising, for a country that seems to be so sports-minded, a lot of people have no idea what's going on with the rugby...one of the questions at the trivia night I go to was who the teams were playing in Australia's pool...the wouldn't believe that Ireland and Namibia were in it...

...I go to an Irish pub, so although I'm not a very sporty person, I do try to keep up with the news on the rugby, because everyone I know (at the pub), especially the Irish boys (and the Kiwis seems to be watching......

and next weekend we will get to see ireland sweep the floor with the Australia

Like you did with the international rules game on Friday ?

well we might let you win as we are through to the next round already then maybe beat you in the final or something like that...

i hope england get beat soon

I suppose time will tell, hey ...

...Going to a pub that has a very large Irish population, this is going to be bad...they'll be playing the game at the pub...and either way, everyone will be plastered...half of them happy, half of them sour...

...it will make for an interesting night...

(and just quietly, most people I know will be happy when England loses...)

how you doing today then

Good morning !!

Well, it's Tuesday morning, which at least means Monday is over and done with ...

...still feeling only quasi-human (although at my best I'm probably only 3/4 human )...and half asleep...

...so much the same as any other day !

And how goes it on your side of the planet, Eóin?

pretty much the same apart from being 12 or so hours behind you and a fair bit colder

and i came to work with a really bad hangover

still half pissed i think

I've found the best thing to do in those situations is to keep drinking....

...man, I'm going to be a terrible mother...

i would if i could but i cant
working you see
not allowed alcohol at work

i will have 2 cans when i get home possibly

I feel your pain !

What kind of work do you do??

i do stock control in a warehouse
so i get to sit at a computer and order stuff

Sounds like fun !!

yep great fun



NOT

I get to stick bits of paper onto other bits of paper...and take abusive calls from teachers and parents...wanna swap ??

if we swap you know you would have to move to england

Well, it's an awful long hike from my pub...and of course I'll miss my kids...and my girl...and then there's all those...poms.... !!
