Woken by a phone call at 1:30 that the 15 year old was passed out drunk at a sleepover, dead to the world when we got there but would make basic responses to her name,
Brought her home and kept an eye on her all night, eventually came around about 5:30,
No hangover or anything like it today,
Started on the alcopops and didn’t like them so graduated to shots of Smirnoff.
Lesson learned hopefully, seems like only yesterday her speech impediment was being mocked on TFK when she was starting school, time flies :man_shrugging:

It’s a nightmare , especially teenage girls . Their little heads absorb so much pressure

Yep, teenage girls. You would need a degree in psychology to navigate it

They can’t handle the phones and social media at all

Back at the Beacon :man_facepalming: today, eldest fucked his knee playing hockey last Saturday, we told him to go to the A&E in the Beacon as it only happened down the road from here, €250 but was seen within 30 minutes and also had an MRI which confirmed his ACL was torn, got an appointment with an orthopaedic surgeon on Tuesday for today, would expect he’ll need surgery but will know more after today.

He’s trotting after me, I did my ACL when I was 19, obviously passed on the dodgy knee gene
