Took a short flight back from Ireland today. It's only 40 minutes or so but I hate it. Just can't get over my fear. Must have lost about 8 pints in sweat and thumbs are in bits from clinging to the chair in front as if that would help in any way. 

I had to fly back from Dubai last week and normally flying doesn't bother me but I had the worst turbulence I've ever experienced on that flight, I hate the feeling that there's nothing you can do to stop it and you're suddenly very aware that you're in a floating metal tube, thousands of miles from the ground. Couldn't wait to land. I know it's really unlikely that turbelance can cause a plane any actual distress but I can't stand that feeling.

Over the last two days myself and the wife are going through potty training with the boy. He will be 3 in June. It’s tiring work staying in all day doing next to nothing!

 

Well if you two still need training what chance has he got ...   :)

I've not gone work today because they predicted rain at 10.   Twenty past eleven now and it still hasn't arrived. I'll be pissed off if it doesn't rain.

Trying to channel my inner Webbo today as I attempt to paint the front room.

 

Done half the main wall with some paint we had left over and it's already ran out. There looked loads left in the tub but it didn't go far :blink:

 

Off to B & fvcking Q then I suppose :(

Yeah, there was some old paint left over from last time that I thought would at least do the main wall (it's quite a big wall tbf)

 

I think maybe I put it on too thick? 

 

Should really call in the experts like you for jobs like this. Whenever it's left up to me it always goes tits up :blush:

Yep, the other half has told me I need to paint the kitchen, hall, stairs, landing and the front porch. 

 

More hassle than it’s worth so I’m just going to pay a painter & decorator to do it.

Forgot to check in online and choose my seat, now I'm at the front, in a middle seat on my way to Nigeria. What's the betting I sit between two sweaty fat gits and screaming kids around me.

 

Its motivated me to spend some money on a pair of noise cancelling headphones.

Did you inherit money from a recently deceased nigerian? Going to collect?

An old hiker trick - if you smear yourself with tea tree oil, ticks won't come near you.

Image result for the fast show which was nice

I'm much too young to have watched the Fast Show when it was actually on TV so I watch clips on youtube every now and again, stumbled upon Patrick yesterday which was nice.
