• Did someone mention FOOTBALL ⚽️ 🤔

    2024年5月25日, アイルランド ⋅ 🌬 11 °C

    There was not much to report back on a wet Saturday in Doolin. On a positive note, it was the first rainy day of the holiday so far ✌️. We had, had a couple of nights with rain throughout the night. It always sounds worse than it is in a Moho, which keeps you awake, or I end dreaming of floating away like Noah's Ark 🤪. There was also a small matter of a local derby on F A Cup final day 🏆😴 Having been unable to suppress my frustration at the constant one-sided conversation of football over the last couple of days (in reality weeks). I had finally spilt my thoughts to Paul in a rant the previous evening. When you are together in such a small space 24/7, it was inevitable!! Apparently, I don't get it 🧐. I do get it, but I am just not interested 🫣. So the morning was peaceful and subdued, without much chatter. Equalling a morning coffee ☕️ in peace (great). I had resigned myself to a chilled day in the Moho with Molly and a chance to catch up on 'Race Across the World' on BBC 🤎 I love this programme and some reading 📚 ( I didn't get out of my PJ'S all day, heaven 😀) . Paul set off in the pouring rain to go to a pub that wasn't showing the game 🙄. He returned back a couple of hours later, a happy boy as his team had won, and he had managed to watch the game on BBCiplayer on his phone 👌(win/win). My rant must have worked as he then made numerous phone calls to people who did want to listen and engage in football conversation. I was thankful the game was done, and we now might be able to have a change of conversation. Even if it is about the weather and his upcoming 60th 😶‍🌫️.......もっと詳しく
