  1. It's official: Ireland is a Third World country Source: https://www.dailyedge.ie/ireland-third-world-566408-Aug2012/ When I actually read the article, and saw the criteria used to determine which are First, Second, and Third World countries, I actually felt rather proud. I'll say no more, for fear of breaking the No Politics rule here on GA...
  2. Greetings, young Albert!
  3. Well.... you can be the butt of many a joke.
  4. Hey yourself, Gary! Hope all's well.
  5. Monolith emerges in California after Utah and Romania works disappear The origins of the monoliths are still unknown. Source: https://www.thejournal.ie/monolith-california-emerges-5288561-Dec2020/
  6. Hey, Cassie! Glad you had a good trip. All good here, thanks.
  7. Okay. I'll take your word for it. But all I saw when I looked at that picture was a goat in a bedroom. Which just seemed silly to me. And then I thought to myself: "What has someone keeping a goat in their bedroom have to do with not being a very good student of Latin?" There's a possibility I may have got the joke had the text read something like: "When you cast a spell and get it wrong." (Or "When you use the wrong word when casting a spell in Latin.") <Now, where's that :shrug: emoticon?>
  8. Still doesn't really make sense to me.
  9. Greetings, young Albert!
  10. So glad I'm not the only one.
  11. Easy-peasy!
  12. Perchance thou dost misunderstand me, dear lady... Mayhap I should point out that mine own reference to thee using the title "ma Sherye" is naught but a play upon words...
  13. Good evening, young Albert! I had steamed, home grown vegetable, with sardines. A quick enough dinner to prepare, due to having being stuck in Zoom meetings.
  14. Hey, ma Sherye... It's really time you started calling him Gary, you know.
  15. Yea, but can we really believe you? After all, you're threatening to tell the world that your mammy beats you. Seriously though, bro, I hope neither you, nor mum, are permanently scarred by the Pippin experiences. Maybe you need to remind your neighbour about the community rules against letting dogs run off leash...
  16. Hi, Page! Hope all's well in Pageland...
  17. For Gary....
  18. I just hope it had nothing to do with chairs, and the standing thereupon.
  19. Older...? Possibly. Wiser...?
  20. Greeting, Drew!
  21. Greetings, bro!
  22. Dear Marty, please, pretty please, keep your shitty weather to yourself. Kind regards, your downstair neighbor, Clo. Also I had trouble reading the word in bold, something else kept coming to my mind That almost sounded like Dear Santa letter the way it started.
  23. Cold here, too. But still reasonably dry (just the odd light shower). Currently 6°C/43°F, but real feel only 1/34 due to fairly strong breeze. Met Éireann, however, are predicting a significant change in our weather pattern this week with a cold polar maritime airmass sweeping across the country, and the possibility of the first snowfall of the winter. I'm expecting that this will spell the death of this year's nasturtium flowers. But, to be honest, it's unusual that they manage to survive into December.
