RE: Do you believe in love at first sight?

No - I do not believe in love at first sight - but lust - oh yeah.
Fate though is another thing???
10 or more years ago, I was introduced to a guy that I neither lusted nor loved in the instant but at the moment I met him, I knew I would be involved with him. We both went about our lives and I never told anyone and eventually we had a short but ill fated affair.

whatever happened to

Corey Haim

and (insert name of missing C.S er )
or event ....

I enjoyed just little me's posts & one fiery red head - even if did not always agree with their point of view.

Which sense would you fear loosing most?

guess your work schedule would consist of "anything with big teeth or bad temper" if you had no sense of touch - oh and the cold night call outs as well.
Although it might already look like that.

Which sense would you fear loosing most?

I thought that was my answer but mine would be touch - I could cope without seeing my children or family again but not the inability to not feel myself hug them or just feeling contact with someone.
But I'm not a touchy feely person per se - but I'd be tactile in that rather than look at a piece of pottery I'd want to pick it up and touch the glaze and feel it

Which sense would you fear loosing most?

that must be tough - I had an aunt who was registered blind and from a v young age had to guide her around & we had a deaf/blind neighbour and a blind guy that used to translate books to braille that we knew as kids - they were all inspiring people. (We learned to sign into the palm of the deaf/blind guy & even now I can just about follow letter signing & I can see it!)

Which sense would you fear loosing most?

Sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch - which one of these would you most hate to loose?

We did this as group and the answer you give instinctively has a lot of bearing on your personality, your interests and the type of work/job you have had/would like.

RE: nimbers

Resurrecting the what have you read lately thread ...

Quite like the idea of round ireland with a fridge - read about that guy a couple years back.
Just demolished Paula Spencer - A novel by Roddy Doyle & keep dipping in and out of Chris Evans Memoir of a Fruitcake.

Anyone got a book that you think everybody should read? Niall Williams Four Letters of Love stands out for me - I think it's just beautiful.

Shakes head and says no one does .........

RE: HAPPY EASTER ALL

Yup - whatever you all like em - sunny side up, poached, unfertilised, scrambled or just from Cadbury ... enjoy the taste ....

RE: Freeconomy - Would you try this, even on a small scale?

I think it's a great idea - and there are so many places were it would be a positive in getting you to connect with other people in your locality.
Off to look at the website - thanks for sharing

I know a guy started a "frugal lunch" club in his town - basically people take it in turns cooking big pots of stew, soup, bread and scones using local produce (which is donated or given at a discount). They serve in the local hall at big tables and everyone is welcome - charge £2. It is used by everyone - brings together some diverse people - teenage mums, old folk and ladies who lunch, unemployed etc.

We are all small people - it's just how we see ourselves ... or some such... potential, perception and malevolence.
Either - thought it was predictable and contrite

second hand cars

for lipstick purposes only (snowy told me that)

second hand cars

See, now I would have dismissed the first 2 as I think are too old and the other as too big...
OK back to the drawing board for me ...

The one thing that did turn my head was 2000 reg 2litre pig of a chrysler at 1300.

But thank you for the input it has made me realise I don't want a fiat or a citreon.

RE: Connecting singles is to close!!

Get matching - we can pull off the biggest multiple wedding in Ireland and save the site!

They'd be better than Lisdoonvarna - people - You're Site Needs You.

second hand cars

Oh - you have re iterated what I have been told.... I keep finding nice looking Fiats ....

But really - No NCT - no buy?? I'd believe the sob story of it would have been but for the sick one legged granny stuck on the doorknob....

going digging ....

second hand cars

TY - can't find a focus at my price - but you never know.

second hand cars

tried that - automatics are not that common on the forecourts. Loads in England but the VRT & ferry cost more than the car.

second hand cars

funny enough have seen a girl with a berlingo as a car and quite like that.

second hand cars

So I am looking to buy a cheap run around and I don't want anything above 1.5 (and auto) - looking on DoneDeal and Adverts
Seems my choices are
really old micras - too small
Even older Toyota starlets
Mitsubishi - seem white and boy racerish
Fiat Punto - told the head WILL go
High mileage Corollas
Opel Corsa
Diahatsu Terios

Or - what would you buy - perhaps more pertinent what would you avoid?
Looking at a max of 1700.

RE: 5 a Day........Help

Hey Vinny - not to be the bearer of bad news but for weight loss you're far better off eating the fruit whole. A juicer just condenses the natural sugars that are high in most fruits - and your body has to do little do digest them.
So juicing really only works for weight loss if you give up food as well!
Porridge is a great start to the day. Aim for one third to half of every meal to be veg or salad (not spuds!), lean protein and easy on the carbs. Or try to do carb heavy before 3pm.

My nan reckoned breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen and supper like a pauper. I've been guilty of king size all the way lately and piled on the 2 stone the treadmill got off last year.
Oh and alcohol is a big weight loss preventer... damn ....
So starting again today.

Do you use Adverts.ie?

I hear this time it's got dayglo orange trim.

Has CS worked for you?

dam right dodging bulls and glengirl - it was the holiday from hell /quote]

Do you use Adverts.ie?

yes - go there if looking for a big or a home item but adverts pitched as being an alternative to E-Bay for Irish buyers on a day to day basis .
Starting own business and rent in a small town seems crazy money but it's hard to get exposure without a shop front ...

Has CS worked for you?

I feel you're pain - I must have been the only person to ever get lost in Killybegs and ended up down the docks with naught but fish guts and seagulls for directions.
There's only only 2 roads you say (and one is a dead end as the waves lap the shore) - oh yes - I take the one less travelled.

Has CS worked for you?

Apologies for the delay - we all had to get C to give us a lift to the bar in Carrick.

Has CS worked for you?

I was going to say something extremely inappropriate there - but all I will say, Glencar can be lovely .
Killybegs stinks

Do you use Adverts.ie?

thanks guys - I just wanted to know how well known it was before I joined. But if you have your own items to sell (e.g furniture, a car, clothes etc) it is free to put an advert in.

RE: Hahaha

I am a life long Toffee girl, who moved to Wales and had to watch Wrexham - then when I moved to Scotland had Inverness Cally as my local team.
Cold, Wet. Miserable. Oh yeah - that's football.
