More costs and paperwork are always a good incentive to save more alright.

They don’t want you saving that way. They’ll be forcing you down the large scale master trust route unless you have a very large pot.

86 years young on a sledge just outside Cork City. Well done Eileen.

Any chemists open around Dun Laoire/Glenageary? I have water trapped in my ear thats driving me crazy. Have tried all the methods google suggests, no joy.

Did you try a drop of olive oil in the affected ear and lie on your side with that ear up for ten minutes and then try blowing it out again?

That usually works for me when I get a bad dose of it... not sure what you expect a pharmacist to do

Government not getting a big enough cut is it? Very large pot wouldn't describe my couple of years in this pension so far. I'll worry about it when I have to though I guess.

There was a bunch of kids outside throwing snowballs at the neighbours house across the street. I told the little one to go upstairs and look out the window. I crept out the front door and started pelting them for the craic. Neighbour comes out to the door and tells them she's gonna call the Guards. I made some joke about getting them for her.

Had great craic then for about 15 mins, about 8 of them against me, took a couple to the head, got a few shots in myself.

Came in then and went up to the little one, she was loving it, asked me to get the kids to throw snowballs up at her at the window. A couple start throwing them up at her, she's loving it.

I look across the street and the neighbour is out on the phone to the Guards because they're throwing snowballs at my window.

lol

Think I might go play cash poker tonight for the first time in a while.

thats brilliant. If the guards arrive ask them to join in. Three guards had a snowball fight with a group of local teenagers here yesterday. I was out walking and came across it, least it shows they can have the craic anyway.

Got into one earlier. Was out walking with herself and the dog and these people, about 20, we're on the green throwing snowballs, we just joined in and the dog was loving it too. Everyone in mighty form. Great craic

@5starpool, super value opened if you're stuck. Just saw this on an Ashbourne Facebook page. Bring a book to keep you occupied while you wait. People are actually idiots if they can't survive a day without going to the shop. Barring people that need essentials like nappies or baby food or whatever. Anything else can wait.

Edit. Spoilered for hugeness on phones

Jaysus, no I'm grand. I was going to go out for a walk earlier and get a couple of non-essentials if things were open. Ne desire to now though.

I fell on the Clockwork orange question. What sport is Alex's clothes derived from?
Odd that, I doubt I ever thought about it but fencing seemed obvious until I looked again at a picture, then the right answer was obv!

Did you notice that the winners were nearly the same username , something like AlexcX and AlexcZ

[oleras]

As "Cabin Fever" sets in it just proves the therory that Dog is a man's best friend. Pets don't talk back.

Joked to the wife this morning she was like the snow, nice to look at but a cunt to live with. She didn't get the joke.

local pub is open.

Think someone needs to have a word with laz. He's getting far too much enjoyment out of this national disaster. Can only imagine how he'd have been during Pompeii 'fireball ahoy!!'

I'm awaiting a "day 14, it's still fucking snowing.
" post from laz

my daughter has decided she loves the snow. as in she doesnt want to walk stand or touch the snow, but wants me to carry her around in it.
bleeding post millennials

local shop posted on FB they were opening at 2pm
missus sent me over at 1 to beat the crowd.
I ended up being top of a queue of around 80 telling all shop was opening at 2pm.
Shop did not open.

[Guest]

Pizzeria announced they were opening for collection. Drove there just to get out of the gaf. Roads are in shite. Pizza worth it though.

[The Situation]

There was a story around that in Blindboy book. Is it an actual thing?

Think so, I've no hard evidence but have always heard many double up as grow houses.

The weather, it seems has turned into gossip.

Being the first to know and to pass it on as if it is gospel.

From now on, i will look out the window and not be forthwith with anything i have overheard on the interweb.
