New thread

Had to send DH for emergency beach towels to dunnes this week as the drying is so bad in west cork 😞 he bought 4 in dunnes for the prices of one paul Costello and was very proud of himself- they're grand

I have a really thick Paul Costello towel that was reduced. It is a bath sheet. It takes so long to dry it can only be used in heatwaves.
@Carriemac are you in Clonakilty?

@honeyrider hope you have a great time. I'm most jealous of the fact you get to wear summer clothes! I've been looking at threads on S&B about spring wardrobes and thinking they are surplus to requirements here!

@JaneJeffer I always roll my eyes when I hear talk about the spring/summer season when I know that we'll all be bundled up in warm clothes until at least June and maybe beyond.

Have a fab. trip @honeyrider. Sounds amazing.

I got a text from Home Store and More to say that their towels are half price. I thought of this thread.

Right, off to pack a picnic for our day out. We may well end up eating in the car. In the rain.

Im hiding here from the joe biden thread. I hope he was wearing thermals yesterday .

Wise decision @eggandonion it's a bit of a troll magnet. It's fairly easy to avoid seeing Sleepy Joe.

@eggandonion where is the Joe Biden thread ? I checked on Craicnet and couldn't see one.

On Chat.i fell asleep during Classic Coronation Street. Joe Biden is more alert than me.

We're over 2 weeks into our holiday and have another 2 nights in Vancouver. We get into Dublin on Sunday around lunchtime. It's been a trip of a lifetime.

We flew to Vegas for 2 nights then flew to San Diego and stayed with cousins for 3 nights then bus to LA for 2 nights then 6 nights cruise to Vancouver with stops at San Francisco Astoria in Oregon Victoria in Vancouver Island.

The cruise was fabulous and very good value, it's been the cheapest part of the holiday apart from staying with my cousins.

Sounds amazing @honeyrider Is Stanley Park the one with the beach? I saw it on Made Up in Belfast the other night if so. Trashy TV at its finest!

Or maybe that was Toronto

Thank you @eggandonion

I love how Biden is behind on his schedule because he's talking too much.
Gift of the gab 😄 At least the weather picked up today when he was out and about. A lovely sunny day, though still chilly.

Honeyrider that sounds amazing. Enjoy every minute of it. * *Good for ye.

I am so glad i wasn't invited to the posh dinner in Dublin Castle. Id be starving and hangry. I wonder if there were rolls on the table.

I just said something similar to dh! I'd be snuffling breadrolls under the table.

If Biden wants to be really Irish he needs to stuff himself with bread rolls before the soup is anywhere to be seen

Hi. 👋another holiday maker here. Coming home from Lanzarote on Saturday. Mild sunburn from lounging by the pool. It sounds like we missed fabulous weather at home.
I read that book about GD and Eilish ??? It was really interesting. He was so cruel to her. I'm glad his appeal failed.

Oh I'm envious of all you holiday-makers!

I just can't warm to Biden at all, and when I saw a photo of him holding a baby in the Dáil all I could think of was 'Jesus don't drop the baby'!!!

We're further west than Clon but it's our neared dunnes .
the kids persuaded us to buy an Aldi hot tub at the weekend and it's been fabulous! Just the thing for the changeable weather

Wrap up warm on the way home @Eanair23! Hope you're having a lovely holiday.

In fairness he looks like an experienced baby wrangler. I wonder if politicians practise baby skills. I haven't had a go on a baby for ages.
That Dunnes is really handy. My geography of Clonakilty is Super Valu the distillery and Dunnes!

I was watching Martin O'Malley on the news. He's very personable.

Very sad news about Mark from The Scrip RIP so young and so much talent

May he rest in peace.
