I love thr rain, once it's not windy aswel. 

I love the sound of it, the smell in the air.

It's not as busy in the shops either.

It always puts me in a good mood 🤪
Migraine kicked in from the heat. Fecking midlands thunderstorms are dancing around without hitting here Sad

Much cooler day today.
What sort of a day was thst weather today! 
🌧☀️⛈🌥🌧

 Raining this morning, which brought the temperature down a bit- brilliant!

I didn't notice any lightening yesterday where I was, but did get some rolls of thunder.
I hate driving behind people who have no idea where they are or which direction to take next, plan ahead, use a map, look up the place, the area if new to you, use indicators etc.,   Angry
It's particularly annoying if they stop without warning or turn without any indicators.

A bug bear of mine, which I am sure I mentioned before, is drivers being in the wrong lanes, especially when they force their way in aggressively. I witnessed a driver coming out of a shopping centre today driving dangerously. Just to explain, when you exit, there are two lanes: one on left for turning left only, and one on right for turning right close to a roundabout. When you do take that right, you can either veer right at the roundabout or proceed to go straight on with a choice of two lanes. Two cars were coming out of the shopping centre, one on the left lane and one on the right lane. The driver on the left turned right, which was bad in itself. But then, just to compound it, rather than going straight on, he took the right at the roundabout beside the car on the right and ended up overtaking it - no indicator at any stage.

Damn lost missing post and parcels
The life I "lead" (lol) makes absolutely no sense, whatsoever. World has gone mad.

THE COAT I WANT IS NOT ON SALE! 😫

I refuse to pay full price. & I'd say in the January sales I'll be lucky if it goes down by €50.
Why park taking over two spaces

This might be controversial but... To stop shite drivers or their hellspawn from hitting their car?

Irish parking spaces are ridiculously small in some places and then you have a car load of snotty brats driven up by their mother and they ram the doors open with wild abandon scratching up paintwork or denting other people's cars....

I'd be more annoyed at the planning muppets that think all cars driven on the roads are tiny little hatchbacks and no differentiation is ever made in most places...

If you're wondering has this happened to me then yes it has Angry

That happened me also and not done by kids 

I agree some spaces are small but taking up two is just selfish imho 

If you don't want your BMW or Hybrid Jeep scratched or dented, walk or park somewhere else, a bigger single space, sorry to discriminate but it seems to be these vehicles which are wide and large taking over two spaces that I have encountered
I have a thwolen, thore thumb



...and it's given me a lisp, apparently.

Pity it didn't come in useful in fixing the machine 🤣
This has become a "hurry up and wait (on people)" kind of week, I hope it doesn't spill over into next week, I have things that need done.

All the InstaChav's doing food "reviews" now 🙄.


(Boeuf & Coq being one culprit attracting this sort of clientele😒).
Sometimes I see people standing on the Luas blocking vacant seats. Either sit down or move out of the way.
I wish people would stop using the "super" as a prefix , as in "super-excited". It is most irritating and does not add anything to the meaning of the sentence.
I am being put in the middle of a serious situation, over which I have no control.

These stupid waste of money new recycling machines, took two bags full and only accepted 5, more money for our idiotic government

I assume you are talking about these new "re-turn" machines. Firstly, it worked for me. Admittedly a member of staff was standing beside me explaining how to put the bottles in. Secondly, I do not see how the Government gets extra money out of this (I could be wrong of course!).

Yes those re-turn machines, I assume the government keeps the extra deposit costs from non returns, was these machines an idea of The Green Party?

I know a few who are not returning any bottles or cans just using their home recycling bins
Afaik any excess money from deposits will be used in the running of the whole scheme
