I'm in the Costa Blanco a d it's very warm. However you can just go into cars and food places and they all have air con.
Ireland can't handle the changes in weather
Bars
But cars have air con as well.

Is it still warm at home. Baby Tigger says he doesn't like Spain cos it has no internet's and it's nice and sunny at home in Ireland and his friends all talk like bajdhfjhehebjskhelwldhje and it's too sunny.
Why are so many people freaking out about rain today? Have they never heard of winter before?

It wasn't even that bad either.
I rant that the weather forecast is usually way off now. They said we would have a serious heatwave and then torrential rain causing floods and high winds.
If you are going to throw out big predictions like that you better be certain first. Dodgy

I got absolutely lashed on while playing golf yesterday morning, and I loved every single second of it 😆

Ah the joys of golf 😆 I've lost my swing totally with my Driver, nothing else, just driver, going every which way but straight. good thing I can hit my 3W about the same as the other lads hit the driver 😂 fucking thing has stayed in the bag last 3 weeks, can't figure it out in the range.. may need to take a visit to the pro.
Mental health problems suck. Mental health care through the public system sucks.

I had to get cancer to get some decent public mental health services 🤣 I shouldn't laugh but what else can one do... It is bleak out there if you have no cash. 😐🤗

I'm not sure it has a lot to recommend it 😉 even if you are 'cured', you'll likely have more physical health issues, more financial burdens / problems and once you are back on the more or less straight and narrow the psycho-oncological service will discharge you anyway, so you'll be back to where you started with a large suitcase of extra baggage 😆

Hmmm not sure I can manage any more financial burden, or health issues. Back to the drawing board!
@ari101 I hope you are doing good now, clear in remission

Ah yeah, the cancer bit is done 🥳 the recovering from everything they do to get it gone and keep it away is a long work in progress 🤣 but you just keep putting one foot in front of the other 🙂
Stupid body clock regularly waking me hours before I have to get up, the muggy nights don't help.

If it makes you feel any better, mine is a jerk in the other direction and I'm only just going to bed now.
I want a rant about the bully driver that I met on a narrow road, he didn't make any effort to slow down or pull over to make room for me so I end up getting thwacked by branches from the hedge and picked up some small scratches on my paint.

Let me guess, an Audi, Merc or SUV?

I drive a small car and these assholes think I should drive into the ditch for them. One was a repeat offender so I just stopped and pulled up the handbrake, a terse exchange later he reversed back into a gateway and has acted like my little car and me are invisible ever since.

As well as the driving test and theory test , there should be an arse hole test, if you don't pass that you don't get your license.

Don't just be video calling out of the blue. shock
Tied to that, I look like shite, coronavirus has added years to people.
Goddamn fucking county Council. Empty house the last 3 years, and another empty 6 months, and still I'm stuck in this hell hole 🤬🤬🤬🤬
I am so sorry to hear Nothing, hugs! I do hope it resolves soon - there's nothing like trying to endure living in a place you can't be (in someway) comfortable in!

My silly rant - 12 or the iitchiest mosquito bites (from sitting outside an hour, friday evening waiting for transport). If it were just on one arm it might be tolerable, but every appendage screaming for a scratch overnite and today. Not a single "proven" or unconventionaal ointment is taming the fire (I am allergic).
Away with the family for my mams birthday. Staying in a beautiful air bnb, three stories of luxury and everything you could ask for. As well as a couple things we didn't ask for... Namely two massive rusty nails sticking out of the side of the decking steps. My mums dog ran by and they caught her on the side and tore off a massive section of hair, skin and tissue. Just peeled back like a curtain revealing the soft, bloody flesh beneath. She had to have emergency surgery to get it all back in place. The poor dog is in bits. We all are!
Ah feck, BB, that sounds horrific. Hope she's doing OK

She took a long time to come round yesterday and was very sore and unsettled during the night but she's pottering around today, doing really well. Dogs are amazing for bouncing back. I think we're more upset about it than she is!
The customer is always shite. Tongue
I ranted about potholes on Irish roads and bully drivers who take up all the space on narrow roads before but it bears repeating, yesterday a bully made me swerve into a really deep pothole.  Dodgy
The British weather forecasts have been complaining about the heat for ages, now they are already complaining about the imminent rain that will end the drought and heatwave.  Huh

You'll have to go to Louth - they'll have no potholes soon with their recent investment in a pothole fixing machine, seemingly it can do 700 potholes a month! 🤣

(I met more effing right hand lane cruising wankers on the M4/M6 this weekend - there was steam coming out my ears - why can't they overtake and then get their grubby little behinds back into the left!!! 🤣)
Damn self service checkouts that don't recognise the bar code, supposedly faster but can be longer
Fucking cherry picker right outside my room since half 8. No. Go away.
What is it with some people that insist on crossing the road close to a roundabout- the most awkward place to cross with frequent traffic? In the case of a specific roundabout that I have in mind, I noticed that the worst offenders for this are constructions workers at a nearby site. Many of them cross to go and return from a local convenience shop. If they walked around the corner and up the road, they would come to pedestrian lights where they could cross over straight to the shop without any hassle.

And people, usually teenage boys, who cross the road even when they see you coming, walking at a snails pace causing you to brake, all the while giving you a really dirty look like you are somehow in the wrong. 😠
Already overloaded with work

And it's unfair that I can't take holidays in the summer months, while other workmates can. So I'm expected to take time off in autumn when the weather turns shite

You should save all your time off until Christmas and have an extra long holiday. Your workmates would be well jell.  Wink
