Half an hour till you go to the pub!

sorry I go to the pub - though it might be 45 mins I have just been told

You're so excited about it that you can't remember whether it's you or me who's going to the pub?

Jack, it's always the way. The Weather Gods wouldn't be the cruel beings that we know them as if they didn't do things like that.

They're almost as evil as the Football Gods, Mac.

Almost. But not quite.

Anyway, I'm done for today. Have a good weekend.

Have a good weekend. I am sure the Weather Gods and Football Gods are all in cahoots.

Hello all

I am staying in Tilbury for a few days, lot quieter than where I live on Ockendon where I'm regulary woken up with people coming in through the communal entrance as my bedroom is on the ground floor.

Forecasted winds up to 75 wpm on Monday, time to batten down the hatches.

Morning Thinker,

We have gale warnings here - I drove to work rather than getting blown off the bike.

Although don't think its as bad as in South of England

Morning PSD.

Quite windy all right.

Good weekend?

I got here just in time for tea break. So I'm not late.

Pretty hectic weekend - pub Friday night.

Gardai were visiting when I got home apparently Emily's two friends who were sleeping over had actually run away from home

And Ikea yesterday which is always stressful - nice meal on the way home though

Must have been fun to get home half slaughtered and discover the cops were investigating the fact that two disappearewd kids were in your house.

I have made a promise to myself never to cross the threshold of Ikea.

And I'm confident of keeping that promise.

We are doing the kitchen and there is not a chance I would let him have his own way with it


He says that next room is the bathroom so I don't mind him going up on his own

Although its nice to drop into Joels on the Naas Road on the way home - had a good burger there yesterday

Yeah, they do a good burger in Joel's.

Just thinking about it is making me hungry.

Only half an hour or so until lunchtime though.

Wonder what time Mac will be out of bed today. I'm gonna guess 1.45.

Close Jack, close.

Morning people.

Afternoon Mac

Nice of you to join us

Afternoon, Mac.

I like the way you say good morning even though you posted an hour and a half after the morning ended.

Yeah but Jack, really, it's still morning for me.

PSD, you're welcome!

Mac, you can't simply claim it's still morning because you've just got out of bed. At that rate if you'd stayed in bed another ten hours you'd be saying 11pm is the morning.

I bet you've done that on occasions, haven't you?

11pm? Nah that's a step too far Jack. That'd mean missing three mealtimes.

True enough, Mac.

And you wouldn't get to a pub by closing time either.

Although, if it was a matchday you wouldn't have to live through the disaster.
