My neighbour rang me this morning to advise against driving as, like everywhere in the country, some of our roads were impassable. They said they were going to try to get into town (they have a bus that is equipped for this weather) and asked if I needed anything.
I told them I'd love a small bag of coal or briquettes but only if it was safe and not to take any risks... I have some oil so I'm not stuck.
A few minutes ago the same neighbour arrived at my door with a large bag of coal, 2 bales of briquttes and 2 litres of milk.
With all the doom and gloom around at the moment isn't it lovely to see the goodness and consideration in people.
I prefer older than me. I dated a man 23 years older than me for over a year. Not sure I'd go for quite as much of an age gap again. That would make him 67 now.
I would consider a couple of years younger.... but not much younger.
Wouldn't chance it if I were you. Roads have become treacherous even down here and we seldom get very bad ice or snow as we are by the sea and further south.
I took a chance and drove to Rosslare as the main roads were ok. Was only in the shop for about 10 minutes. By the time I got out the roads had frozen and it was pelting snow. Not a pleasant drive home.
I just went to check if it was snowing here. Dog jumped up to follow me but as soon as I got to the door he ran back to the fire. I guess he doesn't want to go out!
They always get some good stuff at it but I think year was particularly generous.
I would love to go to the toy show. Went to the late late show, but not the toy show, years ago.. when Gaybo was still doing it. It was the year they released choc kimberley so we all got a tin of them. Got tickets to Leopardstown races and a Jimmy O Dea cd.
True. I've watched it the last few years on my own.
I swear one of these years I'm gonna steal someone's kids and have toyshow night the way I used to when my kids were kids. All in PJs, big bowl of home made popcorn, pringles, sweets and fizzy drinks.
