Using Le Chat: Feel like a 5 year old asking a million questions on the same topic.

Scotland had to play against the ref as well as England #6nationsrugby

The accessibility commentary on ITV for the England Scotland match is awful 😩#6nations

Brain says “oh you have a meeting in the morning? No sleep tonight then for you Neil”.

Months later and I’m still addicted to the Arcane soundtrack…powerful stuff.

Ok 9 hour drive today, Amsterdam to Denmark 🇩🇰. 'Driving home for Christmas' on solid rotation.

Very much a response from the higher ground in response to an infantile reaction of embassy closure, which will hurt Israelis in Ireland more than anyone.

Just waved goodbye to the UK from the back of a ferry after 12 years. Didn't feel much of anything.

Been a while since I was on a ferry but this Newcastle to Amsterdam boat is quality. Clean, maintained, good food...passenger 'Titanic' jokes aside I'd recommend it.

Danish Christmas songs for the day that’s in it. What’s the greatest non-English Christmas song? Except Feliz Navidad ;)

Mariah Carey comes on. Bluetooth speaker: non! “Power critically low”.

Last day of work the company I've been with for 12 years. Today will be a mess of goodbyes, christmas chocolates and phone & browser wiping.

Read 'Cloggy House' as 'high cholesterol Cafe'.

The Dyce Farm Christmss lunch while tempting would simply ruin my afternoon.

Last week of work day 3: kill the afternoon with tea and a box of chocolates.

Last week in my job after 9 years and at no point in the last 4 months have I doubted my decision. When you know it's time to move on you know.

Packing to move countries sure brings up some memories. I was a completely different human 9 years ago when I came to Scotland.

Coffee, today you’re going to need to shine.

Friday, the day when all the shit happens in work and your brain chews over it all night…then welcome to the weekend, hope you’re energetic, refreshed and ready for all the possibilities. Bleh 😞

Absolutely hooked on Arcane rn. The animation/music/story .. what a combo 💥 Only 4 episodes in so no spoilers...

It's too late and windy for a delve into Spotify wrapped, I couldn't handle the shame of it.

Winter…that glorious time of year when you don’t need to iron work shirts, simply covering those wrinkles up with a jumper.

Planning Christmas dinner...who has goose?

New contract, new job coming. Change is healthy.

Dear Lo-fi Christmas Beats: the world doesn't need a song called 'All the jingle ladies' thanks.

Coffee in bed with Mick Flannery/ RTE symphony orchestra and ‘Christmas Past’…the festivities have begun here 🎄🎅

You'll have to speak up, I'm pupating right now.

Fuck it, SinnFein / Feenawhatever coalition anyone? You'd hope they'd keep each other in check, worst case back to the polls. #notgonnahappen

SO: you should follow that dream you had and take some golf lessons. ME: I don't think the 'time is money' crowd would appreciate me dicking around on the first green for 20 minutes'. End of actioning that particular dream.

There should be an Irish language institute to curate, manage and grow the vocabulary.

I guess you can't edit a post here...damn...need to put the thumbs on a diet.

Scrappy Irish performance...dodged a kicking bullet there but incredible charcter 🇮🇪 #rwc #raiseaSAaboveyourhead
