Its a crime to be stuck indoors on a day like this sitting as a desk doing a boring job.

What would you rather be doing if you had the day off?

I'd like to be outside in my folks backgarden with all the family around having a bar-b-que.:D Sigh!

In a country with our weather there should be a law stating the whenever a day like this comes along it becomes an automatic public holiday! At least there are only a few hours left today then its out to the garden with a 6-pack of ice-cold beer! Woohoo!

Should be good fun.

i hear ya. I've got my cheeks pressed up to the office window like a 5 year old. Doesnt seem to be amusing the passing traffic too much though.

Some Guy told me according to the interweb we are expecting a 'mexican' summer. I have absolutly no idea what that means.We used to call hot spells Indian summers, maybe it's a racist thing and he was being PC..:D

Does that mean we can all fall asleep under huge hats between 1 and 3 pm? That would be cool.

I want to be sitting outside The Left Bank with a cold drink in front of me! Hmmm... I'm off tomorrow and monday. Wonder if i can catch the bus home!

I got to wear sandals in public for the first time ever today! I like my new sandals.

I'm counting the minutes now till I can get outside. The drive home is going to be a pleasure... windows down, sunroof open, stereo up loud

It will be nice tomorrow and all weekend long.
Getting warmer too

Temps could get into the mid or high 20's in places by Monday and into early next week.
Summer has truly arrived (for now)

Getting sleepy now though and cant wait to go home. i like the idea about an official irish hot day.

used to take the day off in an old job when the weather was nice. the job was flexible and easy, so we could afford to take time off.
i miss that job.

Heh, it will be typical now. We'll get two weeks af cracking weather...while I'm in Cuba. Then when I come home the good weather will be gone

a bit off topic but...
hey, you're off to cuba!! cool. i was there a few years ago, you'll have a brilliant time. I really recommend you go to the Revolution Museum and pay the $7 for a guide, it lasts about an hour and it is one of the best touristy/historical holiday things i have ever done. Well worth the money.

Also watch out for getting a taxi back to the airport, if you pick up an "unofficial" one off the street. they arent allowed drop people to the airport so will dump you out at the access road - if you have a lot of bags that walk up to the airport door is a killer in the heat.

have a great time.

It was our last school day before the junior cert, but we had a french breakfast morning and our last teacher treated us to a little relaxation in the sun.:)

And we got lollipops!

It all makes sense now - the weather is always fabulous when the LC is going on.

I'm not going out in that weather, I'd catch my death.
Like February it is.

Like, HELLOOOOO?! It's, like, a scientifically proven fact. Just ask the Weather forum mods. Weather around exam time = good. Weather at start of September when schoolkids' holidays are over = good. Weather in between = crap. In meteorological terms it's known as the "Bookended Low Pressure Front Isobar Effect".;)

I have to comment on your post Earthman i will neva let you away
with anything:D

The weather will be fine Friday, Saturday, Sunday
Temperatures won't rise excessively generally between 18-22c
with the odd 23c here and there.

Monday will be a cloudier with temperatures generally around 17-21c

Tuesday will see a breakdown to cooler weather for a time
temperatures 15-18c. The outlook after this is for generally
fine weather with average temperatures of 16-19c and good
sunny spells at times and not much sign of prolonged rain.

Very nice for the weekend but not looking tres promising past Tuesday;)

My strawberry nose is back to that shiney red colour:D
