Fucking Skip the Dishes drivers.

I don't know if this is a thing back home, but here they're absolutely everywhere and a scourge. The epitome of that asshole move where turning your hazards on creates a magic parking space. So there's cars illegally parked everywhere either picking up or delivering food.

Just came back from work there at 9pm and some cunt is parked across the entrance to the building car park with the hazards on. Like, they could have created a magic space anywhere on the street, but chose the entrance to the car park so no-one can get in or out, so of course I have to wait while they wait at a building entrance nearby to hand off the food.

If it was only an occasional occurrence it wouldn't be a big deal, but they are genuinely everywhere. They park outside restaurants all along the main city centre road, cutting off a lane in busy traffic while they run in to wait for their pick up. Cunts!

I hear ya, my mum has os and can't do very much by herself and my da is riddled with arthritis, years of manual labour. Heartbreaking at times but they've always kept their sense of humour. All ya can do is be there for em'.

It's insane, seeing it rise as you order.

Having a cold/flu. Rough as arses the last couple of days but it seems to be easing at least. I actually slept last night.

Ha, yeah had a wee sniffle last night, woke up with a proper dose this morning.

Pure cuntishness timing.

Blocked/runny nose today, annoying but not as bad as the constant coughing. Hopefully it'll clear up for the weekend.

This is something of a nightmare I worry about living abroad. Like what happens if one of them gets sick, should I move home? Try to visit where I can and support from abroad? It fucking sucks worrying about that.

Yeah it's not easy, and just kinda sneaks up on you then suddenly it's there, god help old people who have no one!

The greedy pricks at anpost looks like they have upped the customs admin fee yet again now to €7. When it first started in 2022 it was €4, then €4.50 then €4.95 now it's jumped to €6.95. Then the lazy pricks will move the snails once you pay them it's usually a week or more after I pay that my stuff shows up.

I just got a letter for stuff that was valued at €12.48 and they want me to pay €10.91 in fees.
