Really useful engine.
An update! The 12th and final 10k of Christmas! Or indeed, a 12k run as it turned out to be! Just a little extra to say thank you to everyone that donated so far to Carrickmacross Cancer Society. Here's the link if you'd like to join in!

We’re watching It’s A Wonderful Life. Just occurred to us that you never see Potter in the ‘Pottersville’ universe, where he has won everything and is rich beyond belief. It would have been great to see him walking around in the middle of a robot body like Krang from the Turtles.

I've often said that hospital scrubs look like the most comfortable clothes in the world. So my wife bought me a set of hospital scrubs for Christmas. I'm here watching Scrooged, drinking beer, wearing hospital scrubs. And they are the most comfortable mfin clothes I've ever worn

Green bin collected today. It was too easy this year. Cans and bottles all go to the recycling, the kids are a little older so there's not as much cardboard to take care of... the bin was half empty going out. Didn't even have to stamp it. I feel nothing.

Our children’s funniest Christmas memory is when Santa’s reindeer pooped on our car. It looked like potting compost with gold glitter mixed in it, right on the windscreen. The kids laughed for an hour. Parents, maybe get your kids to check outside for reindeer poop this year 😉

I’ll talk all day about Die Hard being a Christmas movie, but you’ll never hear me make a strong argument for Gremlins. It’s set at Christmas, yes, but it’s really neither here nor there to anything that happens. We still enjoy it at Christmas here though. Why not.

As much as you didn’t want to dance for your aunts as a kid, I assure you that your aunts didn’t want to sit through your fucking dance

Up early for run number ten. A long day, and a reminder of why every donation to Carrickmacross Cancer Society counts so much. Thank you very much to everyone who has donated so far. Two more to go.

We're just a couple of donations away from the €2,000 mark on the #Twelve10KsOfChristmas fundraiser! I'll hopefully get to do run number ten tomorrow, with 11 on Christmas Eve and run 12 the day after Christmas. We might just hit our target yet!

The Eighth #Twelve10KsOfChristmas was a real nasty one! I try keep these under an hour and just managed to do so by 6 seconds! We're on the home stretch now, thanks to all who have donated to Carrickmacross Cancer Society so far!

I say this every year, but the perfect gift for a Dad or husband is a pre-paid skip bag. They're about 90 quid or so, when you get them they are folded flat so wrapped up it looks like a jumper, and they can be collected any time. Imagine the fun he'll have filling it!

Big update on the #Twelve10KsOfChristmas... we have just passed the halfway mark on our way to our goal! A huge thank you to everyone who has donated to Carrickmacross Cancer Society so far.
5 runs left to go, knees... not great, but let's do it!

Me: I hate this Elf On The Shelf shit. I wish we had never started it in our house, it’s a fucking penance having to do this crap every night

Also me: LOL, I have a good one

Whenever I’m stressed, I like to do carpentry using a saw with a thin blade and a D-shaped frame. It’s my coping mechanism.

Tonight's Christmas movie is Sisu.

It's a Christmas movie for two reasons-
One, it's set in Lapland
Two, it's just 90 minutes of Nazis getting killed
