Retired early to live in West Cork 🇮🇪 Married to my soul mate. I knit, crochet, sew, take photos and grow my own veg. Owner of an MG. Love 🏉 and I’m learning about GAA
No UK or US politics thank you.

Ireland v S Africa.
Fire lit, comfy loungers on and I am ready to watch. Hope the Boks dont play dirty and it is a thrilling game.

Another day of disruption with the window guys here. They arrive at 07:30 and leave at 17:00. We are up at 06:30 and Im getting tired and grumpy. Cant fault them, hard workers, respectful and they clean up. Next week they start downstairs.

Today’s ear worm is Minnie Riperton ‘LovingYou’. The worm may have migrated to my mouth and popped out whilst I was driving. This process continued once back home as I unloaded the shopping. Mr A was not amused.

Morning. Windows Day 2. More noise more mess and strange folk trampling about the place.

Ok so the peace and quiet has been lovely but embracing my inner @mindlesmandles.bsky.social and Im tad bored after an hour. Not been able to do much all day, this does not bode well for sleep tonight

Window guys have just left. Mr A has just gone out- peace and quiet at last. Bliss

Cajun style dirty rice for lunch. InstaPot is a go-go
Added green lentils and 3 coloured quinoa to the brown rice.

New windows and doors starting today. Im really not going to cope with this. Strangers all over the house, noise, mess etc. I may be setting up camp in a coffee shop.

BBC has reported on RTC from Ireland (republic). RTCs and road deaths are a regular occurrence here unfortunately. Slow news day or why the sudden interest?

After the rugby I watched the Simple Minds documentary. Will the youth/musicians of today use their platform to do what SM and others did- highlight political issues and shame governments? (Im referring to US, Middle East etc. ) Bit too deep for Sunday morning?

Not going anywhere today. I may look out of the window in case I catch a glimpse of an ark floating by.

Calling all crafters on the island of Ireland! The knitting and Stitching show is in Lisburn this year and it looks like it's going to be a great line up.

I'll be there on Thursday and Sunday if anyone fancies a Bluesky meet up! #CraftSky #SewSky
There's nothing like leaving things to the last minute!

I'm busy prepping for the Knitting and Stitching Show. I'll be doing a demo of my jeans into skirt make with box pleats on Thursday.

If you're similarly last minute and don't have tickets yet LASTMINUTE will get you £4 off. 😊🪡🧵🧶
