    Just walked past Lidl in Rathmines and they have lots of small sandbags in the entrance lobby of the store. I guess that they are being prudent as they suffered serious flooding last October.

    Sandbags ah crap we going back to WW1 this recession & storm combo is worse than I thought

    Advertising hoarding on the side of the Dart bridge at Pearse Street was hanging off when I was passing by about 40 mins ago,Garda and fire brigade were just on the scene so hopefully nobody got crushed by it!

    Government announces new tax to raise funds to re-decorate offices of the Cabinet - to charge you on every cubic metre of water that falls on your property.

    Though I do miss a good old Irish rainstorm. In a strange way, this thread is making me a little homesick. :pac:

    And the young garda that got swept away in the floods.

    Also, to a lesser extent, the ****load of cars written off, homes destroyed and the months of clean up afterwards.

    ****ed if I'm letting that happen again, glued to the window now in case I need to save my car. Poxy **** Dodder.

    I don't get it. The guy on the news on some radio station says...it's a horrible day out there today ? and the bird on the tv news and weather says it's going to a very wet and windy day i'm afraid ?.

    Why is it horrible as I think it's quite a nice day and a good refreshing breeze to go out for a nice walk as it's a nice and refreshing feeling.

    Then you have a person on tv weather saying they are afraid ? (as in it will be wet and windy i'm afraid) why the hell would someone be afraid of a bit of rain and wind. I don't get it.

    They no doubt mean a full-on storm with floods as opposed to a bit of rain and wind, which is obviously a different thing.

    Not remotely stormy or floody here - just neither-here-nor-there weather that you can't plan anything in, and wintry cold. I'd rather a good strong storm with a bit of mildness, to this shyte which has been going on for ages.
