My cousin was playing golf with me on Monday for the first day back since before Christmas. He was having a mare but he managed to sink his first ever birdie. So the rest of the round was irrelevant and we were both buzzing leaving the course.

Cut onion in half
Cut one half in large chunks and other as fine as you can
fry them... see
Do the same with a pepper and some mushrooms

As soon as he walked into the kitchen they handed him a knife, an onion and told him to cut it.
if they didn't like how he did it, he was gone

I think I'm world number 1 for greens in regulation misses v holes in 1 the best part of the 2nd Ace was me bragging to the real golfer with us that I'm coming up to the scene of my 1st Ace . As I was yahooing around the golf tee I could see he was dying inside. I dont blame him. I went full mash potatoes yank. Mad it was the same course though

It will make a huge difference to me whether I get AZ, J&J or an mRNA. Moving out the second dose of AZ to 12 weeks is a very poor decision that effectively punishes anyone who gets it to two extra months of unnecessary restrictions.

I get the feeling the national mood is lifting somewhat. The whole reason we went into lockdown was to protect the vulnerable and now that most of them are receiving the vaccine , things look really good. The reports of people being reinfected post vaccine do not take into account that the vaccine is much less potent to them due to vaccination. When you look at how good we were are streamlining the testing , the vaccinations going forward should ramp up and soon enough we’ll all be
back to a new normal but a normal that resembles the one we left behind. A word of warning , if I see anyone chewing on an exotic animal I will probably administer a fatal beating. (or at least a battle to the death will be declared)

Feels like an enormous weight lifted and sure I will continue to ty to avoid it for myself as best as I can I don't really have any worries about the virus any more. I'm getting antsy to get to Denmark to catch up with No2 son who I haven't seen for two years and whatever happens vaccine or no vaccine I'll be in London for the birth of no2 grandchild there in August.

Here's my fourth and final track. This one is quite different from the others, it's a sad instrumental song documenting a sad time in my life. I'm playing the piano, but everything else is done by very talented musicians. https://open.spotify.com/track/4Ljag...ef5b2d94b649c3

Been out with the camera a little more lately after it being out of sight out of mind at times. Got out for some early morning sunrises which has been really nice, as much as it sucks at times to be rolling out of bed at 4am/5am it can really make an excellent start to your day.
Was out running in Memorial Park the other week at 6:30am it was a beautiful morning but still really cold out so the parts of the River Liffey that were still in shade had the steam rising up from it giving it an eerie feeling. Rounding a corner on the run and stumbled over one of the most stunning sunrises I'd ever seen don't think having my camera would've done it justice.
Trying to post the Twitter links but it doesn't seem to be displaying properly but you can find the pics HERE - HERE & HERE

No, I'll continue trying to avoid the virus but I'm no longer worried about it. Since last march its been a constant grinding paranoia about how I would manage if I was to get it, there was no realistic plan B for getting cover for the stuff I need to do day in day out.
The minute I'm called or sooner if my friend the pharmacist starts dispensing I'll have my sleeve rolled up for whatever version is available.
I'm glad to hear that they are going to treat people as vaccinated three weeks after first dose of AZ, that was a huge anomaly, I just hope that they will accept that in Copenhagen.Turning millions into thousands

The smugness that radiates off vegans should be enough to protect them from the virus and as they have no social contact with real people we should be safe from their contagion

As per our Only Fans investigation, there's a Reddit question on it atm about why do people use it, here are some curated replies:
Because I got tired of seeing dudes nailing their stepsisters over and over again.
I heard the perfect explanation recently. “Yeah porn may be easy to find for free but those pornstars didn’t sit beside me in math class” Suddenly I understood everything LMAO
To support the people that cant even afford clothes
Free range, farm to table organic fair trade porn.
I wanna see your tits you want 5 bucks it’s a fair deal imo
I want to support my wife and help her algorithm
Because she loves me
To fund my ex girlfriends drug habit, it’s my subtle revenge
For the articles. (not many votes for this as the Reddit young whippersnappers won't have got the reference)

If your mother refused AZ and has to wait longer to get another because of blood cloths she is an idiot.
My MIL still smokes 10 a day and is well into her 60s. Keeps banging on about AZ and dreading getting it. Can't get her head around the 1 in a million talk and worries about it (Media's fault)
All this despite being shorter than even money to die of a smoking related illness.
Mental.
She's scheduled for AZ on Saturday and is getting it but from the commentary you'd think she was getting a lethal injection.

To be perfectly honest I’ve sparred with myself mentally in relation to becoming veggie. (not a vegan) I have tried twice for a period but failed each time. Even today I went for a salad roll and deliberately left off the meat when ordering The girl said , you want beef, chicken or ham? CHICKEN I snapped quickly. (almost salivating – Tar is puking right now) So I had a chicken salad roll and mentally shifted the blame to her for waving it in front of my nose like that, after all I am an animal myself. However I hate what happens to animals , I really do but I can’t square it with myself nor resist the urge to keep eating them. One meat I have managed to kick to touch is PORK. It’s gone. Chances of becoming a veggie 20% , a Vegan – ZERO. A meat eating heartless thoughtless bastard 80%
Can’t we simply allow the animals to die of old age and eat their decrepit deceased carcasses? IS this a thing? Is there a market for eating deceased animals that get their annual vacations plus sick leave and pension or is that meat too low of a quality meat to enjoy? We can call it Greygan . Then we have fish who up until recently were deemed to experience no pain and now some fking cod has revealed all that they do indeed feel pain and to fk off dragging them out of the river by their jaws. This piece of info was a real let down. I fully believed fish were living in a state of permanent anaesthesia, now it seems they silently cry out wtf to themselves when caught by rod or net. I don’t know what to think any more and now I’m hungry talking about food I shouldn’t eat but now craving more than ever. . btw I refuse to eat Lamb or Veal also. (throwing those two in with the pork ban)

I suppose if there was a mest substitute that tastes the same with the same texture I might be persuaded to give it a go.
Was on a mountain walk the other day and the lambs were gambolling around (the little degen bastards!, oh wait a minute gam-boh-ling). Havent had roast lamb in ages.

I think that the second meat substitutes are competitive in flavour, texture, nutritional content and price to meat, that it becomes a no brainer to move to them solely.
I often try the new versions of "meat substitute" (often at serious premium to what they're trying to substitute) and though progress is evident, we're still millions of miles away.
