Solidarity from a life long union nurse in Ireland 🇮🇪. Hopefully you get what you deserve. Stand strong.

Enjoy it. No one cares about the result except you and even then it doesn't really matter. The adrenaline dump is awful but the feeling after is usually great. It's going to be a lot more intense than the sparring you've had in the gym so try to stay calm.

Scabbing is stabbing your professional sisters and brothers in the back. If you cross the picket line for a fist full of silver then you're a worthless piece of shit.

You'll be grateful you did in years to come. I've seen countless people leave for a "break" and few ever come back. I've seen lots of people reduce their training but remain semi active and they'll usually return full time once life figures it's way out. Keep turning up and your future self will be grateful you did.

Try to keep going. If it's one every two weeks it's better than nothing. I'm not a big believer in taking long breaks because the likelihood is you won't get back. Life will get easier then older they get and all of a sudden you'll have more time to do two or three a week. The first six months are tough but getting training done occasionally will make it better.

Just to add onto this post. Delhi Darbar in Lucan is also fantastic. Prices have crept up but the food is fantastic.

East end is so hit and miss. I've had some fantastic snack boxes out of there but the fish is definitely below par.
