So my baby moves out today and into Waterford campus. I’ve very mixed emotions here. Happy for her, scared shitless for her. I know it’s only an hour away. Didnt think I’d feel like this. Thought I’d take it all in my stride. Wife is in bits here.
Fuck me what a roller coaster

Tell her to be wary of the men from the meat factory.

Ah well if she manages to secure a leg of lamb or a nice round steak for me every now and again itll be worth the risk

@carryharry

Is WIT not strictly off campus for the foreseeable future? Is taking accommodation this year a complete waste of money?

Nope. Classes are on line alright but accommodation is ok. Plus she’s has to be down there at least two days a week from middle of October due to practical work

The house parties on college road this week will be off the chain… it will be like end of days carnage. I’m sure she’ll be fine tho.

[caulifloweredneanderthal]

Two of the good lads round here are @iron_mike and @Bod95

I’m sure the decency ye display on here will be replicated by yer daughters. And it’s no harm to tell them ye will miss them.

I’ll be a mess when the youngster here joins the army or goes to Ag college or jail when she’s 18

[Thomas_Brady]

@iron_mike is singing random song lyrics down the phone to her all day.

[caulifloweredneanderthal]

Not to mention the theme songs to various ads

[Bandage]

My 2 year old was building a little Lego thing before bed and I was keeping an eye on him. Next thing it toppled over and, without taking any notice of me, he uttered…”aw bollox”. A proud moment.

[Fagan_ODowd]

You’ve been churning out the like bait the last few days, pal

[balbec]

My heart sinks when this thread gets bumped

Just dropped the little lady off to the childminder for the first time. She’s only going in for about 5 hours.

We’ve gone a good 21 months or so without having to put the kid into childcare of any sort. The Mrs works more at weekends and my work is relatively flexible, meaning I can get stuff done in the evenings a lot of the time if herself is working weekdays, but we realised we’d need to get a childminder over next few months, for around a day a week. It’ll be good for her anyway to play more with other kids (childminder has three herself and another one that she looks after). House feels very quiet now!

How did it go?

Our little man had a child minder come in which was grand but he started creche 2 days a week in Aug for similar reasons as yours - lots of tears at the start

[caulifloweredneanderthal]

Ah she seemed grand when I left (it would have been a different story if her mother dropped her I’d say)

She looked a bit confused alright so hopefully all going grand. She’s only there from 10:30-3:30 today.

[carryharry]

She’ll be grand. She’ll be running in the door without looking back in a couple of weeks and the two of ye will be rightly miffed then.
