My worst ever was they happened to be doing the quarterly testing on a day I had to give myself an injection... I struggle at the best of times with jumping when alarms go off, and let's not even talk about self administered stabbie stabbies, but f* me the alarm went off just as I was doing it ... My poor thigh was black and blue for about 3 weeks and I was completely traumatised

Just want to sort the kitchen tomorrow so I can cook on Friday without annoying myself. Have given up on getting any other part of the house sorted

I went to lidl in Naas and it was grand
Took the car in for a service this morning and was stuck with nothing much to do near some car garages, so I took some new electric cars out for test drives, they're very cool! Don't think we can afford them, even though we do need a new car this year, but it was a fun way to spend the morning

my car is 12 years old, but we don't drive it enough to justify it... But I want one.... But I don't need one... But I want one.
What did you test drive?

That is bonkers!
After all the queuing, you probably wouldn't even get half the stuff you need
Reminds me of queuing for Tesco at the start of corona. queue started all the way outside the car park, then few layers inside the shopping center ground floor. Then I thought once we went up the escalator we'd walk straight into in Tesco. but no, another queuing system outside the front of the store!
I haven't the patience for that.
Stared shopping in Iceland coz they never had any queues. Bought any aul crap that I could lol. & was happy with life not having to queue like that again

Flip off whoever came up with the law originally (VFI had a lot to do with it I would guess). When did you ever see hordes of chronic alcoholics descending on shops to stock up on booze first thing in the morning before the law was in place?

I'd actually be afraid to go shopping in that. People get so stressed and cray cray this time of year.
& I don't really understand that queue at all. It's bloody Dublin, there are so many other shops that you can go to without that carry on of queuing like that

I actually can't tell if your taking the piss or not.
I kinda believe it though
