I'd be confident that both of you will do sub 20 if you keep up the work.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

Though a lot of these she is still only 3/1 or 4/1 for which is boring. Looking at the bigger scalps my betting eyes keep turning to Louisiana which is in Trumps top 10 safest seats, has voted red 4 in a row, and in my head is full of stereotypical rednecks who should love him. And what little opinion polls there are in such an unimportant state put him a comfortable 10pts ahead.
But on the other hand Louisiana did vote for Bill twice, and only last year they elected a Dem governor. And more importantly Hillarys price ofSPOILER33/1means it's a bit of a punt to nothing.

In terms of workplace luxuries, is there anything better than having the office to yourself!? No one to bug you, no IM windows popping up every 5 mins with questions you've already answered a thousand times. No need to explain it and smugly pointing to the search tool in your IM application. Free run of the coffee machine, sports streams in the background or music if you like.
Yes its Sunday... but man, I get so so much more done when I'm left alone.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

Bit of a long shot - I've ended up with two tickets for the Connacht-Toulouse game next Saturday (good ones too, in the sold out new seated stand) and won't go as I've had an engagement sprung on me in Dublin that I can't miss.
The tickets are worth €75 but will let them go for €60 if anyone here is interested or knows someone who is; get in touch if so.

AirBnB was great and is now going to be my go to. Cheers for saving me some money too.
Also what a great time to go to the UK, practically making money.

It's a vicious circle though.
I lack the discipline to avoid distractions (admittedly a 7 month old is a proper distraction ), so I end up working longer and I feel bad about not working earlier and then feel bad about ignoring wife and baby and then dont apply myself and then get frustrated I cannot ignore distractions so end up working longer.....
Also, having the wife believe working from home is not really working and I can just homer simpson it with a dipping bird doesnt help

Vintage Kitchen on Thursday night just gone. Maybe it's my imagination but the portions seemed to be bigger than before
Duck Liver Creme
Prawn Chili Risotto
Atlantic Cod
Lamb Shanks
Half baked chocolate cake
& Fruit crumble were the six courses devoured by myself and Mrs LaoLao for only €68. It really is incredible value for the quality of the food.
Was talking to Sean after the meal and booked a table for two for the next available Saturday, on 5th August 2017!! Mental stuff altogether but still booked
Senior Duke, you might want to book our January 2018 outing in the next few weeks!

Since BabyHiFi was born i have a lot less time for weekend running but the 7K run into work has been a good inclusion to my repertoire a few times a week. I though i'd hate city running but it has lots of upsides to temper the downsides.
This is the first year i haven't broken a PB and i'm feeling older, heavier and slower (the BabyHiFi factor!)
So i'm seriously thinking about joining a Park Run and working on 5k speed for a year with all other running (7Ks, 10ks, the odd half marathon) feeding into that.
Oddly conflicted about this but the positive park run vibes here might be tipping the balance.

It's funny though, I've been thinking about concentrating more on distance based goals, especially since I've recently figured out and discovered my comfortable pace, but I think I'm settling on hitting my 5k target first.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

hmmm
Britain is seeking to shift the frontline of immigration controls to Ireland’s ports and airports to avoid having to introduce a “hard border” between north and south after the UK leaves the European Union, the Guardian has learned.
The Northern Ireland secretary, James Brokenshire, has told the Guardian that London and Dublin will work to strengthen Ireland’s external borders in order to combat illegal migration into the UK once it leaves the European Union.
In an interview, Brokenshire said there was now a “high level of collaboration on a joint programme of work” between the two states to control immigration.Turning millions into thousands

Originally posted by Lazare View PostHey Paul, I run in Griffeen Lucan, it's a two lap course, really nice, a couple of bridges and a small bit of woodland. Really great group of regulars too.
Yeah, I know I can do better, really looking forward to busting through that pb, it's such a great feeling.
If I turn up to a local run when I'm next home. Can I run and get a time. I might do that at Xmas in that case. Also Lucan btw.
5km is about the max I run without getting distracted. But can't even remember the last time I made it past 3km.

A timekeeper will record your time when you cross the finish line and you'll get a position token, also with a barcode. Another volunteer then scans your token and your barcode, then your name is allocated to that position/time.
