Opinionated auld wan living in West Cork

@eoghancorry Is it ALL or ALL from Dublin? I’m wondering about Cork-Nice on 16 May.

@MissMooWiddit Mothering Sunday is a UK tradition. Hamnet was all about being the mother of Shakespeare’s child. Other countries in Europe and around the globe celebrate Mother’s Day on different dates. For example next Thursday (Feast of St Joseph) is Fathers Day in many places.

@limerickjfk @eoghancorry I’m assuming it’s out of Dubai? I’m in same boat. My flight is open for online check in - but not to me! It’s scheduled to leave Dubai at 14.35 on Friday. I intend going to airport as I assume the advice relates to those who’ve had flights cancelled.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@EmiratesSupport @emirates If online check in is not available to me (it is open) should I arrive at Dubai airport?

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@philipnolan1 Nothing to do with tautology but how about this in today’s Irish Times. 🤪

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@GreenwichCork I’m at least 40 years older than you - now THAT’S old 🤣. (AI tells me ‘drip’ is style).

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@LePatissier1 Enjoy. Try le Bar a Vin early evening for great wines by the glass. Near central Tourist Office.

@AskPTSB Got an ‘automated call from PTSB’ from 353 15294653. Assuming Scam

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@AskPTSB Today 6Jan received call from 35315294653 claiming automated from PTSB. Presume scam.

@adrianweckler About seven already in past week. All different +44 numbers. I don’t answer and block. Some leave voicemails asking to be added to WhatsApp

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@jenn26265 @Sally_writes @MichaelRosenYes Imagine costing half a billion and being a system failure- which is Ml Rosen’s point.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@conor_pope Yes for sure. The reasoning is that they’re cutting down on waste. You should be able to request more but, as this causes an interruption and a delay - very few people ask. EG - a tiny pat of butter between six people.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@conor_pope I have to remember to get cash for the local film club entrance charge every two weeks. It’s an awful nuisance as I just use my phone for everything else

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@caulmick @olivercallan I was walking behind three seemingly homeless immigrants on Cork’s Oliver Plunkett St as they ransacked every bin for cans and bottles. Just imagine how hygienic they are in the stupid machines 😱. I re-fuse to use them.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@conor_pope An electric weed burner. Used once for a frustrating half an hour. Hanging in shed for past three years.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@COSullivanTD The service for recycling by Cork CC is totally inadequate in Clonakilty. An entrance fee to dispose of glass bottles. Centre closed Mondays and every day for lunch. Bottle banks in Rosscarbery filled to overflowing in one day by publicans etc.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@shaunahair I think it’s hilarious- I love it! 🤣

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@kbdolly69 @Editorialz No need to wait that long …….He’ll be on the Late Late tomorrow! 😱

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@philipnolan1 After 3 slooow episodes, I’ve decided to wait 5 weeks b4 watching all the rest.

[Bernadette @beroreilly49]

@philipnolan1 The charge seems inevitable. Almost everyone consults it now instead of newspapers. I just hope that the charges will bring about changes in how the condolences are monitored/edited. I have a big problem with all the anonymous contributors eg ‘Irish Mother’ etc
