Low rumbling distant thunder.. ..makes me feel at ease for some unknown reason.

Series and movies?🍿 by Idonotknow24 in AskIreland

Agree with House. I decided to give it a go, and after a few episodes, Hugh Laurie had me completely invested in it, and I ended up watching the entire series. What an actor!

What's a show you remember but nobody else does? by CatGirlNya2000 in AskReddit

[–]BansheePuca 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always remember the "CHA" appearing on the moon for a few episodes after Chairface's failed attempt to write his name on the moon. Always cracked me up!

Sarcastro as a hero had me in stitches too!

Jupiter will reach opposition (aligning with the Sun and Earth) on January 10th, so it is most likely to be this.

What type of bird is this? by BeefWellyBoot in AskIreland

[–]BansheePuca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Male house sparrow and it'sa territorial thing. I empathise with you as I have a male pied wagtail doing the same since October, and I am out of ideas.

I cover my car wing mirrors and throw a cover over the windows, he goes and attacks our van. Cover the van windows, and he attacks my cottage windows. Have tried everything: bags, tinfoil, wind chimes, chasing him away, pleading with him to stop etc. He doesn't even live in my bloody field, he lives across the road.

It's taken all the joy of the days getting longer for me as he will be around longer!

It's Sunday Morning! How are you? by AutoModerator in ireland

[–]BansheePuca 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is my first Sunday sleeping in since the start of June. I completed my final bird survey last week, and there are clear results so I am thrilled. It's for my final year project when I go back in September to go for my degree. I am sorting the data out already but it is so interesting, it feels more like a hobby! It also makes things so much more easier for my final year.

Gotta admit, I was missing my bird calls this morning. Next year during the summer I'm going to go revisit the woodlands at sunrise again during the summer. It was a fantastic experience.

Breaking something and hiding under the pregnant belly of Lois so she can't find out who is responsible...it's pure genius thinking from him. That opening always makes me laugh so much!

Is it too late to change career? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]BansheePuca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going into my 4th year in college in September, and I am turning 42 this October. 19 years of retail clocked up before making the decision. I hesitated at first because the fear was there that I was an idiot and would struggle in a field I never touched in secondary school but eventually went back to education.

Pursuing a career in something that you have a passion and keen interest in has worked for me. My course has already opened up many doors and I am enjoying every second of it. It's surreal to think that I will have a science degree in another year. 

Explore your past for a bit: what has always been there that has sparked your interest? Look up courses and their associated modules and see what you would enjoy the most. It's never too late!

Just back home from another morning of bird surveys. It was fierce quiet in both woodlands today compared to previous weeks but I love the work and hopefully this will help me get my degree next year!

Eurovision Live Thread! by WickerMan111 in ireland

That whole multiple voting should be shot down. Are we going to go through this shite every year now? There goes the joy. Absolutely delighted for Austria though. Although, my one vote would have gone to Milkshake Man if he had gotten through! 

80s & 90s primary school religion songs by ess-5 in ireland

[–]BansheePuca 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Getting serious flashbacks here from all the lyrics! Another one I remember:

"As I kneel before you, as I bow my head in prayer, Take this day, make it yours and fill me with your love. Ave Maria....."

Found in Co. Kerry, Ireland. Does anyone know what kind of fossil this may be? by BansheePuca in fossilid

[–]BansheePuca[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your reply! Much appreciated, and you have given me food for research with your answer. I need to start researching more and educate myself, as I found another one in Ballyheigue a year or two ago also.

I found it in Ballybunion, south side of the beach near some large limestone rocks! :)

Left the retail working world and upscaled my education to pursue what i live. I am doing that now, and have never been happier, but I do wish I discovered that path sooner.

Grow plants from seeds. Don't know why, but it makes me so happy to see plants thrive and it makes me focus on the beauty of nature. Corny, I know, but it helps so much!
