My friend is sitting in her salon waiting on clients who are not showing up and not answering their phones . On the last day of trading for god knows how long. If you do this to a small business you're a dick, simple as that !
I don't care if people disagree with me....in my opinion the complacency is happening partly because the new guys in government have become complacent about communicating. Leo, Simon & Tony kept us in the loop regardless of whether people liked what they were saying ๐คท
Homework needs to go. It was grand in the 80's ๐๐คฆ but family life is different now.
Parents working full time and/or not having 2 parents in the 1 house. It causes nothing but upset.
Think I'll start a revolution....don't make your kids do homework who's with me?
Load of ๐ฉ
My gorgeous neighbours are getting married today. We did our best to give them a good send off ๐คต๐ฐ
Lovely to have some happy news ๐พ๐ฅ๐พ๐ฅ๐พ๐ฅ
Omg people would melt your head
"Vaccinations being done during the night is discriminating people who don't drive"
I get it, it doesn't suit everyone. But nothing ever will ๐คฆ
I'll get up in the middle of the night & drive someone to their vaccination
Lets just get it done ๐คท
Who wants a laugh???
I ran out to the shop there, grabbed a facemask from the drawer on way out...... Pulled it from my pocket going to shop door.
Nope , not a mask, knickers ! ๐๐๐๐๐๐
Saw someone talk about "wild camping" ๐
Is this like "sea swimming"
It's camping & swimming lads.
I won't even get into the person saying they went "hiking" on Killiney hill ๐
Excuse me now while I go gas hob cooking
C'mere now lads....... If you're looking for discounts/offers from businesses that have been closed for best part of a year then you need to take a long hard look at yourself !!
Why restaurants/pubs can't use the outdoor spaces (after 8pm) that a lot of them spent a fortune on is beyond me๐คฆ they were only allowed trade outdoors for how long because the government deemed it safe
A neighbour, who became a good friend, took his own life ๐
He helped me to help my brother turn his life around and I will be eternally grateful for that.
A really good guy, a Father, he'd just turned 40.
Please talk to people if you are suffering
My son is the cutest,his best bud across the road has Covid so he went to the shop and bought her goodies with his precious pocket money, he left them at the door for her ๐
I know a 25 yr old who is massively anti V, despite having lost someone very close to Covid ...... complaining about the passport situation in pubs ๐คฆ Doesn't mind having been on the PUP this whole time & earning a decent amount of cash doing nixers though ๐คท
My friend is in Heathrow airport and saw the first pic .....so she went and got someone and complained and now it looks like the second pic ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
The NEEEEECCCKKKK of them
Trying to prepare for re-opening 2 salons with 50+ employees when the government are giving zero indication of when that might be is a joke!
You'd easily know none of them ever ran a business

@LeoVaradkar
any possibility of a plan there?
My son is struggling as an only child and sitting at a desk doing school work. He's lonely and says he has no fun any more ๐ญ๐
I spoke to his SNA and my God the support is incredible. Just got off the phone to his teacher who called me to check in and give me few pointers
Told someone my son and I haven't had Covid. They said there's no possible way you haven't had it..... You probably don't do Antigens properly ๐คฆ
I actually know a lot of people who haven't had it (more that have but....๐คท)
Everyone asking everyone who is sending kids to school this week. Do your own thing and mind your own business. There ya go
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
F**K MY LIFE !!!!!
Sitting doing homework & my son just asked me were there cars when I was a child ...... and I thought he thought I was young and cool ๐คฆ
For sale..... 1 almost 12 yr old boy who can work a Nespresso machine and empty a dish washer
Stop whining about NYE lads. I sat on my tod the last few years . If you've someone to have a quiet night in with be grateful ๐คฆ
(it's a crap night anyway ๐คฃ)
Yesterday afternoon I booked a cab for 2.30am for my student who was heading off to the airport.
I got a call at 2.32 saying there would be no cab. Not sorry or anything, just "everyone knows how busy the airport is"
Ye!!! That's why I booked a cab hours in advance
๐คฏ
Remember people with businesses opening back up if you aren't happy with service, please tell the business instead of instantly berating them on social media.
If you don't get any joy from them that's different but it's unfair to immediately announce it to the public ๐คท
Every girls night out my gang put each other in taxis , everyone texts when they're home, if not we ask are they home ok.
EVERY GIRLS NIGHT OUT
because it's something we have to do as women
#saraheverand
There was a gang of Scottish lads beside us in the pub yesterday all kitted out in kilts. One of them was wearing a pink high viz vest. His pal said they always lose him on a night out so they can now spot him in his luminous vest ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Why are Irish people begrudgers....... Just told someone I am away down the country for 2 nights. The reply "it's well for you"
It is on its fook well for me I work my ass off and would much rather be heading abroad for 2 weeks ๐๐คฆ
This little fella was part of a litter rescued from Dublin Port. He is here with us for a week and all going well we'll be adopting him ๐

Is it just me or anyone else think the standard of driving has gone through the floor?
It's like over the last 2 yrs people have forgotten rules of the road. Never seen so many people break red lights or take stupid chances ๐คฆ
Lads
It's almost 2 years since we could stand up and drink our drinks in a pub ๐๐๐ I for one cannot wait to squish my enthusiastic arse up to a crouded bar and force eye contact with the bar person trying to ignore me.........and order my own drink ๐ท๐ป๐พ๐ฅ๐น๐ฅ๐บ
Chatting with my girlfriends last night. So many amazing single women all saying the same things...
Where are all the single men?
Dating apps are a load of ๐ฉ
People don't socialize the way they used to.
Fab women late 30's-early 40's
Are there actually more women than men? ๐
If you haven't :
*Lost a loved one
*Lost a job
*Lost income
*Lost you mind ๐
since March then you're not doing too bad and it might help to see your glass half full and remember this isn't forever.
There are people having a really tough time and really suffering out there
I really disagree with anyone posting or retweeting photos of the little children at the funeral.
I don't think it's right. As a parent I don't now how anyone thinks it's ok to do that.
There is no good reason and the family asked for privacy. Don't @ me that's how I feel
My brother is a chef, hasn't worked one day in 15 months because his job didn't bother with the opening to serve the โฌ9 meal.
I'm fuckin angry for the industry. I ate and drank in hotels the last 2 weekends !
THAT IS INDOOR DINING!!!
Asked my son where would he like to go on a holiday if we could. Most kids would say Disney or something similar.
Nope....he wants to go to the Escape to the Chateau house ๐๐
@dickstrawbridge
People saying if we re-open all hospitality then it will be like December again.....nobody was vaccinated in December ๐คฆ
I feel so bad for the business owners and people still unemployed (my brother is one)
This isn't all about the pints....it's livelihoods
I worked in the airport & lost my job like so many in there in 2020.
After almost a YEAR unemployed I got work elsewhere, like most of the people on my team we had no choice the uncertainty is awful.
Background checks for airport staff take WEEKS
People don't get this is why
So...... I've changed tyres on my car, even bulbs in head lamps (ye lads I'm a catch ๐)
But today I went into the garage as I was worried about a noise when I was turning the wheel.
It was a sea shell my son had left in the glove box ๐คฆ
SCARLET!!!!
In last hour I've spoken to 3 people who are scraping bottom of the hope barrel. All out of work almost a year & don't know when they'll work again
Years building careers & businesses in industries that are fucked. It's terrifying place to be
Be kind to people in this situation
2 of my neighbors lost family members to Covid today and I know of 3 other people through my circle who have it. Don't go to holiday homes this weekend . Don't be selfish . This isn't for ever. This isn't a holiday !
#Coronavirusireland
#InItTogether
I didn't know anyone with Covid....
Then I knew of people with Covid.
Then people I actually know got it.
Now it's in my family circle.
Mind each other xx
Last morning of being unemployed and I can't explain how excited I am after my 54 week break ๐คฆ
Starting a new job on April fool's day is a good sign right !? ๐๐๐
Questions before vaccine......are you or could you be pregnant, many women of my age SHOUTING no ๐๐๐๐
It was actually hilarious. I heard one JAYSES NO
Here we go again........ Why do you care that people are queueing for Ikea or Zara ? If people want to shop today it's their own business. I'm at home because I wouldn't be bothered but so what if others want to?
The whole point is getting the country open again ๐คท
Is it not mad that the lads in government are off eating mince pies, not a word from them, when everything is such mess๐คท And don't even @ me about them being entitled to a Xmas break
1 year ago today I watched the airport turn into a ghost town, was told by my boss to go home we'd be back to normal in a few weeks ๐คฆ Thinking of everyone who lost their jobs because of Covid it's been one hell of a year!
I'm so grateful to be starting my new job next week ๐ค
All this talk from
@MichealMartinTD
about Summer being all about the outdoors & from the pics over the weekend it's clear we don't have the amenities for this atm. Tone deaf as usual!! If you want people to enjoy public spaces they need to have the basics...Loos & Bins !?
Remember the days when your postman got Christmas pressies......they so deserve that tradition to come back this year ! My postman cycles his little cart around with a constant smile on his face and I'm sure he's wrecked ๐๐
Shout out to the Mam's who are still having a normal Sunday doing everything they always do ๐ช๐คฃ๐คญRemember, social media is not real life ๐๐คฃ
My coupon day didn't last past breakfast time and I'm not being taken out for lunch or dinner๐คท but the sun is out and there will be ๐ฅ

My day started with a case of wine on my doorstep from my lovely ex, then spoiled in work & by friends.... all ending with my best little buddy ๐
Happy Birthday to me ๐๐ฅ
Who still does an Easter dinner like Christmas Day?
I have a neighbour who still has very traditional routines with their family.
I'm making spaghetti bolognese for dinner ๐ฌ
My son just said to my neighbour who was holding a Starbucks coffee cup, don't let my Mommy see that she'll nag you for not supporting Irish companies ๐๐๐๐

Told my friend I'm starting my new job on April 1st. She says that's great you've a few weeks off before starting........ I've had 50 weeks off ! ๐๐๐๐๐
Ok....I run Social platforms for salons/clinics
And I am shocked already to have people looking for discounts when these salons open. Businesses who are almost on their knees. People who possibly have still had a job/income through Lockdown.
Remember...you get what you pay for!
Settle an argument for me Twitter puhleeeese.
I'll be 46 in a few months (how da fook๐คฆ) anyway..... that's still MID 40's right !!!!!????
Not LATE 40's !!
Ye I know it's only a number I don't care about it but I NEED to prove somebody wrong ๐คญ๐คญ
Married/Coupled up people of my age all say the same things to you when you become single.
Top 2 ......
1. There's someone out there for you
2. Would you not try tinder
๐ด๐ด๐ด๐ด๐ด๐ด๐ด
This jumped out at me. When I became single after 17 yrs my married pals never invited me(and my son) to anything so much so I don't see them any more.
Married people.....do you do this to single pals? It's not nice if you do & you add to the lonliness.
You're all welcome ๐
All my friends are happily married and have been forever. They spend Nye doing husband/couple stuff with other couples. As a single person I tend to get overlooked, which I get. But it would be nice to have plans. I have many dresses that need wearing!!!
Ok everyone knows how much I

I want to offer my help by running your Social Media. I'll treat it like it's your baby! DM me ๐
At the start of the plague loads of people were whining about having to wfh while lots of us were losing jobs, freezing mortgages, wondering when we'd work again (1 year for me)
I even had to give back my lovely car and buy a little banger.
Put a deposit on this yesterday ๐คฉ
Listen up all you lot who don't work in service industries.
Everyone is slowing down from now for ๐ & we're all jammers and wrecked by the day itself.

A friend of mine, let's call him Santa ๐ is doing a fabulously good deed and asked for my help.
He has 20 x โฌ50 gift vouchers for Smyths Toys that he wants to go to people who need a bit of help this Christmas ๐

So basically the government have made a total BALLS of the vaccine rollout and are expecting us all to sit tight until they stop making a balls of it ๐คฆ
I'm taking my son to give my Mam a proper cuddle today and I'll probably cry. He's her only grandchild and she's missed the hugs and sleepovers so much ๐ค
Myself and a good few of my close friends have managed to escape the plague so far. So I think this is proof that alcohol has something to do with protecting you ๐คฃ๐คญ๐ค๐ฅ
That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it ...now where's my Monday Malbec๐ท
So from next week wearing a mask is personal choice. Try not to be judgy we've all been through enough. If you don't feel safe somewhere, you also have the personal choice to leave.
Be sound โค๏ธ
