*hugs Kam* Hello dear one, good to see you. I hope so too, lol... yesterday was kinda brutal. Nail training while hurting all over and being dizzy. This morning, things seem a little less nasty though. How are you and your beloved doing today?

Haz, My wife's family is from Ballymena! Do you live in town?

11:21 am

Haz1558

Sorry, godthaab. Was texting my daughter. Yes, I live in town.

11:22 am

Haz1558

Small world! When did they leave?

11:22 am

Haz1558

Or wait, maybe they still live here?

11:23 am

godthaab

They are still there. He cousin runs the big shoe store in town. Its name escapes me at the moment, but it is a good Irish name.

11:24 am

Haz1558

McKillens

11:24 am

godthaab

Yes!

11:25 am

godthaab

We met some wonderful people who helped us find out where her great grandmother lived, as well as finding out about relatives she did not even know. He even directed us to grave sites.

11:25 am

Haz1558

It's certainly the biggest shoe shop, that's why I knew it straightaway.

11:26 am

godthaab

I bought a pair shoes there, and they lasted for years!

11:26 am

Haz1558

It's fascinating to do family history, though very time consuming.

11:26 am

Haz1558

Yes, they sell good shoes. Not Barker's by any chance?

11:26 am

godthaab

Oh yes!

11:27 am

Haz1558

They are good, though expensive, shoes but they will last.

11:27 am

godthaab

I don't remember the name.

11:28 am

Haz1558

Still, I'm glad they sold you good shoes. When were you over here?

11:31 am

godthaab

Maybe 8, 9 years ago.

11:31 am

Haz1558

And remind me where you're from?

11:31 am

godthaab

Toronto, Canada

11:32 am

Haz1558

Okay, I couldn't remember if it was Canada or Australia.

11:33 am

godthaab

We travelled through most of Ireland. We just missed the southeast part of Ireland. What a gorgeous country. We are definitely going back.

11:33 am

Haz1558

We always find that visitors from the States/Canada/Australia are fascinated with the countryside and also the age of some of the buildings.

11:34 am

godthaab

Much to my wife's chagrin, I had to stop at every castle.

11:34 am

Haz1558

There are castles everywhere...

11:34 am

godthaab

Canada only has two castles

11:35 am

Haz1558

My 'home' castle is Carrickfergus, a Norman castle.

11:36 am

godthaab

I know that castle! We stopped there. A great Castle!

11:37 am

Haz1558

It is!

11:38 am

godthaab

We took the ocean road from belfast all the way over to Londonderry, with a few side trips. Amazing!

11:38 am

Haz1558

It is special, you're right.

11:39 am

bichon

There's a show on Netflix, The Fall. It's set in Belfast

11:39 am

godthaab

Oh, I don't have a TV.

11:44 am

Haz1558

I haven't watched it either, bichon, it's pretty dark in subject matter.

11:45 am

bichon

very, but acting is great

11:46 am

Haz1558

The other famous show that's filmed over here is Game of Thrones - again, I haven't watched it but loads of people come to see the locations.

11:48 am

godthaab

Neat! It has been nice talking to you - I have to get back to work. Talk to you later.

11:48 am

Haz1558

Have a good day, so interesting to know you've been to Ballymena!

11:49 am

godthaab

Small world.

11:50 am

BzznBea

What a bunch of nonsense the ov words are!

11:51 am

Haz1558

Are you overwrought? Overcome?

11:52 am

BzznBea

LOL!

11:52 am

Haz1558

Some are a bit of a stretch but I can go along with the first ov7. I've done it.

MollyL

*Loves the phrase "boisterous festivities*
: D

5:18 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Gapeach. It ends in keeping thing tidy.

5:19 pm

zoozzoom

Oh sorry that is the third one.

5:19 pm

zoozzoom

5:19 pm

gapeach

Hi there, zooz. Thanks so much. How are your parents?

5:20 pm

zoozzoom

Mother is still the same, Gapeach. She is off to the doctor AGAIN tomorrow. Dad is still plodding along but frail. Hope you are keeping well?

5:22 pm

5:22 pm

zoozzoom

Molly, my next door neighbor has boisterous activities nearly every weekend :-(

5:22 pm

nelleon

treen

5:23 pm

gapeach

You all are still in my prayers, zooz. Sometimes we just don't understand why things happen the way they do.....so if we turn them over to the higher power it takes some of the worry from us.

5:25 pm

zoozzoom

Yes it is hard to watch parents suffer when there is nothing you can do about it apart from try and encourage them to get more help. But when they do try and get help the help does not seem to come. Very frustrating but we keep going :-)

5:26 pm

rururocks

i don't mind seeing my parents suffer actually .. doesn't bother me a bit

5:26 pm

zoozzoom

Thankfully my parents are not like your parents, Ruru.

5:27 pm

rururocks

most aren't

5:27 pm

rururocks

:D

5:27 pm

zoozzoom

Sorry you had bad parents though.

5:27 pm

zoozzoom

Also glad you did not turn out like them too!

5:28 pm

rururocks

that's the breaks

5:28 pm

MollyL

If people had to pass a test, a lot of them would not be able to become parents

5:28 pm

rururocks

no.. I made it my mission to not be anything like them.. or at least as much as I possibly could

5:29 pm

rururocks

my parents would have never passed any testing

5:29 pm

MollyL

People have to prove their worthiness in order to adopt animals, but not to procreate

5:29 pm

gapeach

I guess the best for you would be to do your best to try to remain calm....not an easy task but ultimately you are the one that will take care of them and yourself. I will ask for that in my prayers.....just try and calm yourself whenever you get a chance.

5:30 pm

gapeach

Be back in a few minutes.

5:30 pm

zoozzoom

((Gapeach)) I do. Hence why I am here iin babbleland! Plus I listen to a lot of music to keep me calm.

5:32 pm

zoozzoom

Well form what I have seen here, Ruru, You seem to be a nice person with a great sense of humour!

5:32 pm

zoozzoom

From*

5:34 pm

rururocks

what do your Boisterous Neighbors do Zooz?

5:35 pm

rururocks

actually I'm an asshole with a warped sense of humor

5:35 pm

rururocks

:D

5:35 pm

zoozzoom

LOL

5:36 pm

zoozzoom

They stand outside smoking and seem to be hard of hearing as they shout really loud. Then they drink to excess and play music a tad loud. They then go out (thank goodness) but return around 4am and bang about again.

5:37 pm

rururocks

banging at 4 am.. gotta hand it to them :D

5:37 pm

zoozzoom

I knew that was the wrong choice of words to use once I typed it lol

5:38 pm

rururocks

LOL

5:38 pm

rururocks

me being considerate.. I would bang at an earlier time

5:38 pm

zoozzoom

They are around 19- 20ish so I can sort of understand where they are coming from. Been there and done it. Just do not like it happening on my doorstep.

5:39 pm

zoozzoom

I had to clean up sick off of my driveway last weekend as one of the ladies they were entertaining threw up on it.

5:40 pm

rururocks

yuck..disgusting.. have you brought it up with them?

5:41 pm

zoozzoom

No I do not like confrontation as it brings on my panic attacks.

5:41 pm

rururocks

oh..

5:42 pm

rururocks

you want me to come over and have a come to Jesus moment with them for you Zooz?

5:42 pm

zoozzoom

Yeah I know...I sound like a right bag of wind.

5:42 pm

zoozzoom

LOL thanks! I think a baseball bat my get through to them!

5:43 pm

rururocks

tell them you want to show them your Robert De Niro impersonation of the Enforcers and have a bat handy

5:44 pm

zoozzoom

I used to act like that when I was younger but I did it at a nightclub. Would not dream of acting like that with my neighbors.

5:45 pm

zoozzoom

LOL they would probably just snatch it out of my hand and whack me with it.

5:45 pm

rururocks

my neighbors are pretty innocuous .. I have no neighbors behind me so that helps

5:45 pm

zoozzoom

Are you not moving again?

5:45 pm

lynxxx

perhaps the local cops could just happen to drive by when they are in full flight (without naming names)

5:45 pm

lynxxx

morning all

5:46 pm

zoozzoom

Morning, Lynxxx :-)

5:46 pm

rururocks

in a few years zooz.. not quite yet.. I will need to be closer to retiring before I move to Canada

5:46 pm

zoozzoom

Ha! the police here would not come out for a burblary let a lone a neighbour noise complaint.

5:46 pm

rururocks

so you have a super or a apt manager who can talk to them about their habits and noise

5:47 pm

zoozzoom

Burglary*

5:48 pm

zoozzoom

These are street houses not apt blocks. No there was a neighbourhood watch but that stopped years ago.

5:48 pm

lynxxx

Really? I thought in a smaller place they would be good. Do they bother any other neighbours - maybe a few of you could get the police to give them a warning

5:49 pm

zoozzoom

One of my other neighbours works nights. And none of the others seem to have noticed or do not seem to care.

5:50 pm

cybernan

hello again -- 10 left for this monster

5:50 pm

funhs

I used to have neighbors who had wild parties almost every weekend. The last one they had resulted in a young man standing in front of his new truck hoping to protect it from the drunk driver running off the road straight for it. The young man was hit and lost a leg. They never had another drunken party for as long as they lived there.

5:50 pm

rururocks

I dislike inconsiderate people

5:51 pm

zoozzoom

Wow that is one way for the parties to stop, Funhs!

5:51 pm

cybernan

hi ru --- are you getting any of the rain that has hit us?

5:51 pm

rururocks

5:52 pm

rururocks

yes.. it rained here today nan

5:52 pm

zoozzoom

LOL

5:52 pm

rururocks

at least the damage didn't cost the owner an arm and a leg :D

5:53 pm

zoozzoom

I hope the drunk driver got stopped and arrested also.

5:53 pm

cybernan

yay -- are the fires out or under control now?

5:53 pm

rururocks

5:54 pm

zoozzoom
