IrishGal77 Thanks for responding lady1993! Yeah, I agree, it is hit and miss with the karaoke machines and the quality of the music. There is also a 'certain' way to hold a microphone, I have a habit of holding it too close so I sound like I'm shouting rather than...

IrishGal77 Hi KrauseHome, Thanks for responding! I love a lot of Whitney's songs, especially the ballads. I imagine that it takes quite a voice to sing any of her songs, kudos to you! IrishGal77 :)

Hi everyone, Yep, you guessed it, this discussion was inspired by Rihanna's song; one of my favourite party songs of the moment. But this discussion is not about the song itself, rather I am wondering where you met your...

I'm a fussy git. I am. I'm Dutch, I was raised on Dutch cheese. When I was younger here in Ireland it was a nightmare trying to get proper Dutch cheese. You'd find lots of Edam and Gouda everywhere, but in the little black rimmed...

IrishGal77 Hi TheIrishClog, Nope can't say that I have had one of those BUT, you have got me tongue tied and twisted just there for I can't for the life of me say that last sentence without stuttering and stumbling. Alliteration, anyone?!! IrishGal77 :)

IrishGal77 Hi TheIrishClog, Wow, good for you! I have never used a drill in my life, don't have one so have had to be very resourceful since....well I've pretty much always done most of the DIY things round the home but do more of them now I'm on my own. I don't mind...

IrishGal77 Hi kali1987, Thanks for responding and welcome to myLot! I find singing and music in general to be a great outlet as there are so many types of music for whatever mood you're experiencing at any given time. You make a very valid point about not letting...

IrishGal77 Hi Janey, Oh dear that house is a right mess, I pity who has to clean it and those who have to foot the bill of all those repairs. Needless to say yer man must have never had a bath and I thought it quite ironic that among all the clutter was a hoover piled...

IrishGal77 Hi suzukigirl1970, Thanks for responding and welcome to myLot! I was going to ask you if you're sure that you can't sing but to me you sound pretty redundant as you say 'with good reason'. It's just that some people would be shy and would rather say they...

IrishGal77 Hi Vvance, I am Catholic and while I believe in God I am no 'Holy Joe'. I say my prayers at night, talk to God a good bit and am generally a good person. My prayers are not always answered but that's okay. I remember two very clear occasions, whether I...

IrishGal77 Hi speakeasy, The Winter just gone was the mildest I can ever remember so I'd be talking about a good few years here. Temperatures around Christmas were in the low to mid teens which is a stark comparison to the year before where temps reached minus 16...

My daughter will not go to sleep unless I'm holding her, laying next to her, or she's in her baby swing. She won't go to sleep on her own. And once I do get her to sleep and try putting her down, she wakes up right away. The only...

IrishGal77 Hi joannamarie089, I really sympathise with you, having had two boys whom I unintentionally encouraged the 'not-learning-to-fall-asleep-by-themselves' by rocking them to sleep either in my arms or in the rocker. Trying to get your baby as tired as...

IrishGal77 Hi Vvance, Thanks for responding. You sing and play guitar? Good for you! Nope, it was purely coincidental that I mentioned the Summer of 2011 as that's when I last sang in public. IrishGal77 :)
