Morning team!

tamobhuuta 02-05-2024 08:20 AM

Morning! How are you?

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 08:48 AM

Morning!
I'm good thanks!
How are you?

tamobhuuta 02-05-2024 09:02 AM

I'm ok. Laundry day! There's no way I'm putting clothes on the line.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 09:05 AM

Noo weather is grim!
Meant to storm later!

tamobhuuta 02-05-2024 09:09 AM

I do love a storm!

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 09:13 AM

Me too!
I do have to go to college later but at least I can drive there now :-D

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 11:06 AM

It's police and crime commissioner voting day today in Wales. I think England are having a voting day too. I am not going to vote as it's supposed to piss down today and I am not going in it. Plus there is the fact you have to take photo id with you so cba even though I have some.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 11:23 AM

I want to vote for myself because I am awesome and all these politicians are self serving morons XD

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 11:27 AM

No you suck :-p

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 11:45 AM

J/k I am sure that you can do a better job than many people.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 11:55 AM

How rude! :tongue2:

I definitely could!!

one_step_closer 02-05-2024 12:16 PM

It's nice and sunny here. :-p

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 12:18 PM

Lucky!
Though I'm pretty sure we had sun when it was dull in Scotland so it's only fair really! :tongue2:

one_step_closer 02-05-2024 12:33 PM

Hopefully we'll all have a nice summer.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 01:26 PM

Hopefully! Unlike last year where it rained almost constantly! But somehow was 40°c everywhere else in Europe XD

long road 02-05-2024 02:10 PM

We had a lot of sunshine down here in South West last summer. Was unbearably hot at some points. Although I was stuck going in and out of hospital for a lot of the good weather so didnt get to enjoy it.

Afternoon all!

I am very tired didn't get much sleep and took until gone 7am to get to sleep.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 02:16 PM

Hey jen!
That sucks!

It's sunny here now! The predicted storm is nowhere to be seen! And is no longer predicted!

I have to go up to the cmht to get a prescription now. Ugh! There's an awkward 3 way temporary traffic light thing up there atm which is annoying! And then to pharmacy to go and get the pilllzzz. I guess at least it gives me something to do XD

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 02:49 PM

It's hot and sunny here. My hay-fever is playing up.

one_step_closer 02-05-2024 03:12 PM

Sleep should come easily for everyone, it's not fair! I hope you aren't too tired, Jen.

You must have chased the storm away, Beckie.

Hayfever sucks. I'm dreading mine arriving. Have you got antihistamines etc, Dawn?

long road 02-05-2024 03:26 PM

I am very tired. But not much ai can do about it
If I nap now I will never get back on schedule.

Beckie already complaining about traffic lights when she can drive now and no longer has to walk like us peasants XD

My hqygever has been here since February! Tree pollen is worse for me though so it's not as bad mid summer. Still it sucks you have my sympathies Dawn.

Also just had a shower and it feels so good!

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 03:38 PM

I must have! With my positive attitude! :-D

Hopefully the staying awake will help you sleep better tonight jen!
Glad you managed a shower :)

Lol jen XD
Temporary traffic lights are annoying whoever you are! These ones were even bad for pedestrians because the footpath was also closed. But to my delight, they are gone now! :-D
So I am now in possession of the extra medication to make the happy go away :plain:

one_step_closer 02-05-2024 03:43 PM

Well done for having a shower, Jen. Glad it is a positive for you.

Hopefully it will just make things calmer for you Beckie but you can still feel good. You wouldn't want things to get out of hand.

Cacoethes 02-05-2024 03:50 PM

I guess not!
Just hate how they medicalise everything!

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 04:13 PM

Thanks everyone. I have washed my bottom sheet and am waiting for it to dry before I attempt to get it on the bed. Sorry am slowly cleaning whilst I have the breath. Yes Lindsay I have taken antihistamines which has helped with my throat not feeling so tight.

tamobhuuta 02-05-2024 04:49 PM

Hi guys. I'm just waiting for things to dry then laundry is finished. I'm exhausted! I didn't vote, no one seemed worth voting for.

not_so_insig 02-05-2024 04:52 PM

I haven't voted either tamobhuuta.

long road 02-05-2024 06:06 PM

That's true Beckie, road works annoy everyone (apart from maybe highways engineers like me who put them there...) I was just messing with you :P hope college goes ok tonight.

I just came back from voting. Was city councillor as well as crime commissioner so felt worth it

one_step_closer 02-05-2024 06:25 PM

No voting required for me.

Do you keep your photo ID somewhere hard to access?? That seems unwise…

Just came to join in the Doing Democracy updates as I just voted. My partner only knew about the mayoral elections so the crime commissioner thing was a nice surprise vote for them and they had no idea about any of the options :P. I’m tempted to make a bad life choice and stay up for results…

Ahimsa 02-05-2024 06:44 PM

I completely forgot!

long road 02-05-2024 08:42 PM

There is still time Beth! I think pilling stations don't close until 10pm.

Ahimsa 02-05-2024 08:56 PM

I know, I'm going to get dressed (I'm in my jammies) and walk down now

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 06:49 AM

Morning everyone!

Those that didn't vote, don't start complaining if/when the elected person turns out to be **** XD

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 09:56 AM

They would all be ****....

Good morning! No mass today so I had a lie in. How are you?

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 10:02 AM

Probably!

Lie ins are nice!
What are you up to today?

I'm good thanks!

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 10:06 AM

L's friend is coming to stay for a few days so I've got to make the spare room up. It's my dad's birthday so we'll be having takeaway. And I'm going to try to do some exercise. What about you?

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 10:14 AM

Do you like L's friend?

What takeaway are you getting?

I'm doing some more college work, meeting a friend for coffee in a bit, need to go to asda, aldi and petrol station and do a mini clean out for the boys and work this evening

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 10:44 AM

That sounds like a lot!

I think I like her. I haven't met her a lot because she lives up north.

We're trying a new Indian.

long road 03-05-2024 10:45 AM

Morning everyone! I actually got a decent sleep last night 1:30am ish - 10:30am. Not napping yesterday paid off!

Ooh takeaway! Hope whatever you get tos delicious Tamo.

Hope your college work goes ok Beckie. How do you think last night's exam went?

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 10:49 AM

Hi lr. I'm glad you got some decent sleep. You up to much today?

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 10:55 AM

Ooh a new Indian! Hope it's tasty!

Yay for a decent sleep jen!

Not a clue how the exam went! I kept getting really distracted XD

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 10:57 AM

I have high hopes of the indian.

I can imagine an exam would be hard to focus on currently!

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 11:01 AM

Good!

Yeah definitely! Instructor did say I had a really good reason to not do it but I persevered, as I do!

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 11:03 AM

Is a pass enough?

Cacoethes 03-05-2024 11:04 AM

You have to get 70% to pass, there's just that as a threshold

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 11:05 AM

Then i hope you get 70! If not I hope you can sit it again at a more suitable time.

long road 03-05-2024 11:16 AM

What's your favourite dish to get from an Indian Tamo?

*Fingers crossed* you did well enough to pass Beckie.

We are going out to our favourite cafe on the seafront of the nearest seaside town for lunch. And then have roleplaying this evening.

tamobhuuta 03-05-2024 11:27 AM

Saag paneer and peshwari naan.

Enjoy your day :)

long road 03-05-2024 11:46 AM

Ooh both great choices! I love peshwari naan. Sadly because my food intolerance to peppers and chillies has got worse I can't eat most Indian takeaway food anymore. But I still dream of it!

Thanks! Weather is a bit changeable so hoping our washing won't get soaked while we are out over lunch!
