was just chatting to my friend here about the days of the phone box...... in the village in my case.
lets go back to 1989, I was madly in love with my first love who had got a job in The Robert Emmet Inn in Dublin much to my dismay. Only form of contact back then was the phone box as nobody up our road had a house phone .
Every single night I would jog on down to the village phone box across from Berties bar ( stinking smelly fucking yoke it was too, I can still smell it) for 8pm. unfortunatly it was a gambol as more often than not some other cunt was in it . I am outside under the big floppy tree( thank fuck for that tree in the rain!) waiting and watching the cunt , watching the legs swopping comfort zones and the arm resting on the ledge , far too nice and relaxed and looking like it only getting in to the convo.
It is now 8.05 and I am fucking sweating unless you are my age you will never understand this predicament , in my head " oh jesus maybe he is out nightclubbing and isnt ringing at all" " oh fuck bet he is on a break and now his break is over" " fuck sake bet he only rang once and its engaged and he is gone back to work"
I am now like a pure tinker and bang on the fucking door , yer man turns around big face on him, " Hello I am waiting on a really important call since 8 , any chance you could hurry up, please! " " yeah wont be long he says.
8.25 pm omfg fuck sake no way is he gonna ring now. bang bang HELLO THIS IS IMPORTANT LIKE PLEASE, BEGGING YOU HERE!!!!"
finally door swings open, smell of fucking rothmans and sweat is enough to knock a horse jesus. I wait and I wait. 9 fucking 15 nothing
I slope off home imagining every single senerio under the sun except his break is over and he is serving a pint of the black of the stuff . next night same thing but I would be there 7.45 when he rang then big row because of the night before ! lol
My God the power of social media and a mobile phone is un fucking real!
Many a night after a row I cried in that phone box, no text messages, no calling back as the owner would answer and fuck me out of it, I had to wait and wait I did!
five years we lasted lol my first love and still friends to this day and btw he owns an old nokia phone with zero interest in social media or techy stuff and lives in a 17th century farmhouse lol
ah god be with the days

A new computer shop opened down the road from me. Dropped down yesterday with two old lappys to get a quote on repairing them and cleaning them up.
Ended up trading them in for this baby. Second hand, refurb job, an absolute dream to use, super fast, thing is like new. He had it on sale for €350, gave me €100 off as a trade in. Delighted with it, have been laptopless for a long while.
He also copied the entire hard drives from the old ones onto it.
Real sound guy running the place, dude works seven days a week to try get it off the ground, was happy to give him the business.
He has dozens of second hand laptops in perfect condition for as little as €150.
Doesn't seem to have his site up and running yet, but if you're in the market for one, he's in Newcastle, beside the butchers.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for thatComment

I cant remember what the sequence was but you could lift the receiver and dial, say 171, hang up and the phone would ring 15 seconds later. That was the only way i could stay on the phone for hours without the mother bating down the door.
One time, after i did something especially stupid the mother unplugged the phone and took it to work with her, i had to walk 30 mins to a payphone to call a girlfriend.
They don't know how good they have it !This too shall pass.Comment

Was at a jam session last night and we did this tune, first time hearing it. It's outstanding imo.
A real barrel fire under a Harlem bridge feel to it.
We had a loop pedal and recorded the harmonies, then played and sang over that, my first experience of it. Still buzzing.

I think chillI is key, tried one of the others and it wasn't as good. I think the medium salsa is the clincher, it's green ~ salsa verde?

Well he did spend thirty years before that wandering around the place declaring himself to be the chosen one, so maybe you should head off into the family events in the Phoenix Park or somewhere and make your declaration there.

I somehow managed to pay eircom €513 instead of my credit card bill.
I will be in credit with eircom for €400 but wanted to renegotiate this month as my current 12 months are up.
Is it AIB or eircom that refunds, eircom i would assume as it now in there account ?This too shall pass.Comment

Cut Eircom altogether awhile back, €80 monthly bills madness Ted! Switched to UPC phone €5 a month and free calls to landlines & mobiles plus the use of their phone app so I can use that to ring home when abroad and it doesn't cost an extra cent, if you can ditch Eircom I'd highly advise it.Originally posted by oleras View Post"you raise, i kill you" El Tren :{)Comment
