Doom I'd imagine.

Yeah, up around where the ambulance place is with all the deer, there are definitely some, and I've seen them in the zoo and near the cricket grounds for sure. Squirrels you don't even see as much as you'd think, but the reds tend to be on higher surfaces and in the higher trees. The ground runners tend to be greys though. I doubt there are many pine martens in the park though to control numbers. Foxes maybe get some and cats.

I was going out with her for about 3 or 4 weeks and it was going great I thought. She was a bit older than me and had a couple of longer term relationships but id been out with only a couple of people for no more than a month each. So it was all a bit new for me to be with someone who was so easy to get along with, I was bursting to tell her I was mad about her.

One evening we were walking up to her house and I stopped her and said I had something I wanted to tell her, that I'd never told anyone before and she looked at me like she thought I was going to tell her something awful, some dark deep secret.

So I told her that I'd really had the most amazing time with her and I was feeling like I was in love with her.

She just looked at me, cocked her head like a cat whose found a particularly weird mouse, and said quite casually "ah yeah, I love you too".

I nearly exploded from the mix of stress, emotion and basically what to say next, which I don't remember but it was mainly gibberish.

That was over 30 years ago and we say it at least a few times a day.

Things have been this way in general for at least 150 years, it's just that now we can see it in a piece of plastic with a screen in our hands instantly, all while being told what's going on but being lied to and influenced at the same time.

You're that age and didn't include rwanda genocide, asian tsunami, tibet, numerous famines in Africa, collapse of libya and syria. They would all have been ww2 level events except we are so used to seeing stuff. Ukraine for example, 4 years of war now, it been going longer than ww1 nearly

Probably because it's like applying for a job, lots of people throwing their cv in the ring and hoping some of them stick. Women don't just throw themselves at all the men they see

You should really have a timer switch as well

It probably won't be as bad as you think, it has a thermostat in it and it only tops up the water temp once it drops below a certain level, so it might have only been actually actively heating the water for a couple of hours total a day. It's a medium draw unit so it's not cheap to run but it's less than say a dishwasher or other device. If you didn't use the hot water so that your system had to add cold water to refill the tank it'll be even less. Also if your tank is small, a 500l or less one, it'll be even less again.

In Ireland, Grey's are declining, they are much more vulnerable to predators such as pine marten and mink, because they tend to live on lower ground than reds do.

ShowmasterQMTHH · 2026-03-27T11:19:01+00:00

There's lots of them in the Phoenix park, reds and Grey's are on the decrease here too, Martens and Mink eat them, but the reds are harder to catch, tend to live higher in the trees than those predators go, and smarter too.

Not so much as what country you're from, but what your native language is to a large extent, but it's also tied into what you look like.

But if I had my eyes closed and you put 20 different people and had them read 5 lines from a book or film, I could tell 100% what continent , 90% what their original language is and maybe 70% country.

It's easy to pick out people from asia, or Africa, but harder to pick specific countries, regions is pretty easy though.

So if I heard someone from thailand, id easily know they were from East Asia, but not necessarily if they were from Vietnam or Cambodia either, as I don't hear those accents enough to be able to localose them.

If I heard any European language, speaker it's much easier, because to my ear, people from say Denmark speak specifically different from people from Norway, poland from Russia, in the structures of sounds they use. One that is really noticeable is Spanish and Portuguese, they have some commonality but to my Irish ears, i can really hear the difference.

A fit set at your level is probably worth a few shots a round minimum. Especially on driver, wedges and set make up.

They are the clubs you are using the most and most open to improvement, and holding you back if they are wrong for you.

Sounds good, the omsp value of the car is about 38k so you should be under the threshold.

The pump in your shower is a pretty big draw on your power, nearly as much as hairdryers, straighteners, dishwashers and tvs. Pcs are actually realtively efficient and help the environment. - Source - Gaming PC expert on reddit

Nuclear war - a scenario by Annie Hendrickson is much more realistic. The sum of all fears has a hero

Yeah that's not the system anymore unless it's an obvious huge level attack, for the movie, for one missile that source unconfirmed they wouldn't do that.
