This is the bike I met in the house, I was able to restore it by changing the chain, oiling the gear, putting a brake and gear cable and it runs with some slight grumbling sound for abadoning it, I'll also put it on for sell. If I leave, it won't make sense to be carrying it up and down. If I leave it here, it will be abandoned again and may never roll. 7 Likes

When they say, come and have Tea, this is what you should expect. I have a strong feeling that, I won't be treated as nicely as I am here if I was doing this job in Nigeria. Maybe it's because they don't pay for my services directly from their purse, Yes, the government pays me to do this. And they also get weekly allowance that can conveniently feed, house and with free medical attention. It's not company o, it's what the government is doing. Some of them that applied years ago, actually got free houses only that they won't be in Dublin but in some remote part like smaller towns in Galway, Offally and so on. 9 Likes

Weekend Phantoms Every Sunday morning, from 9am, I see these beautiful work of creation. What I do when I see them is to clear the road and follow them with my head and eyes, they are so beautiful, sleek and elegant. What can man do? This is a weakness tho, I love vintage cars. Dublin host a Vintage car show and people with Majestic rides like this come around to showcase them. But Covid has disrupted this. So these fellas, maybe brothers or friends have to maintain and take these vehicles out. So they do this every Sunday morning, and even when I'm coming back from my calls, I see them going up and about and I clear the road and feed my eyes , I must say that my camera didn't do justice to these classics. forgive me Cars. This is the North part of the city, and it's more like the slum. The south part is where the houses are not the same, and where the posh people live, the likes of Enya....i know you'll know her, from her voice in Lord of the Rings. So it's normal to see more fancier cars and houses there than this part. I'll like to visit that part soon. Also the accent there is different, they are well-spoken than the north part of dublin. These two cars looks like either a Rolls-Royce, bugatti, or Bentley. Either way it looks, I love them. When I finally settle and get a Full time job, I might look at getting a vintage Jaguar or Benz. Either a well-maintained one or a rough one that's very cheap, that would mean I'll spend time to restore and refurbish it. As long as the chassis, seat and interior is good. It's very satisfying for me to fix lifeless things and get them running. 10 Likes 1 Share

rinzylee: Ohhh I see, We're good here, raining a lot, I'm glad the rain is warm. Yeah, they call it warm rain, I could get drenched in it and never shiver. That's the good thing, even during the winter, I kinda got lost in January and the rain pounced on me without considering the fact I was a JJC. It really get cold when it's not raining basically. 2 Likes |

seunny4lif:Eiya, that's why thread dey, just break it down in piece, proper chronological order, take your time, might be weeks on each part of the trip. Share your experiences, your reactions, opinions and observations. Opinions are very important, everyone is entitled to them. I shared my opinion about naija women, not everyone is happy actually, especially the good girls. All girls aren't the same, same as men. But what poverty has done to our mindset is appalling. People will do anything even in a setting like marriage and conduct it like a business transaction. It's also despicable for African men to take America women and after getting the passport, they end up dumping them and going for a Nigeria girl who may not love them and do the same thing to them that they did to that Caucasian woman. They might also be contributing to the Rise of Karens. You need to write it actually, a thread has good advantages, you have an audience that will provide instant feedback, motivation, encouragements and these keeps you motivated. Not everyone that enjoys your thread will thank you, but the few that does, I make it a duty to appreciate them for appreciating me, lol. Create it not just for you, but for your children, they need to know what daddy has seen so when you're talking they listen. You don see Life from different angles. You know you cannot beat children here, let them know that if not for the struggle, den dey under the careless hands of our leader, look at the Forex now. 5 Likes |

The K word Yes, there's a Kword just as we have the Kword. But the Word isn't an attack on coloured people, it even works for us Africans and those with the rich supply of Melanin. The Americans majorly and any Caucasian that overstep their boundary. The word is targeted at women. Just as John doe and Jane doe is used against unidentified male or female with a link in a police investigation, the name has sadly been associated with certain women. Sadly in the sense that there are women that bear this name innocently and can't be changing names up and down. Here's a link below that explains the Kword. I had a good laugh after I got home from work and will watch it again cos it was very hilarious. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DjKtRLze-aQ8&ved=2ahUKEwjD3Ir9xM3rAhXEURUIHfY0C80Qt9IBMA16BAgOEA4&usg=AOvVaw2JunWiOT-XZJvKStRj44DO The Kword is KAREN, it's now a slur word for Annoying American women with kids, grumpy, some say they are mostly divorced and very unhappy. It has lots of negative meaning that it has been assigned a spot in the Wikipedia, and will be appearing in the Dictionary very soon. If you notice, I avoid using words like White, Black, yellow, and all. I call the irish, Americans and British, Caucasian, they can call me coloured, because it's easy to see white(Albinos), yellow, brown and even black in Nigeria for example but here, all irish have a singular colour, the ones that are looking reddish or orange knew how they did it in a artificially or naturally in a warm country. Just as Martin Luther King, my Paddy, said "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judge by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their Character." I have personally decided not to call anyone with a lighter skin white and they dare not call me Black. They need to see Chiggs first before a Black man. Karen is very insulting and once you start to throw tantrums as woman, and someone drops, KAREN ON THE LOOSE, your instantly finished, and everyone will start laughing. When I watched the video of Karens, I saw how calmer the irish women are compared to this. The only thing we fear here is idle teenage boys making a jump on us at night than pissing off any middle-aged women. The women here are so chilled, it's normal for them to make eye contact and they respond nicely when I greet them. If they don't like you, they'll rather ignore you and go about their business. While cycling, I've made some mistakes and the only ones I've gotten harsh words were the teenage girls, not the Nword tho. When I paused and looked at them, I saw pain in their eyes. I just left n continued cycling. The Nword is actually beneficial to us because, it's a slur, if as a coloured man, an American woman is excessively going at it with her words, the fear of the Kword, will make her act accordingly. We need more like this. Words are extremely powerful. Trump in his speech about the election went very dark. During the election that got him in. He told them that America is going to be in a very big mess and he's the only one that's capable to get them out. The impact of word is devastating when it's coming from an authority, acquitted and guilty from a sitting judge that's been influenced with a charismatic lawyer can be the difference between life and death. That's why I'm happy that Karen is gaining on, this will keep grumpy women in check, these women also have a knack for reporting employees to their managers and demanding they are fired. Imagine as a Server, Karen slips a needle into a coffee, you might end up in jail. 8 Likes 1 Share |
