    The world is getting stranger by the week.

    RTE News
    Around two dozen houses have been damaged in Waterford city following what residents have described as a mini tornado.

    The adverse weather conditions hit the Larchville estate shortly before 3.30pm, causing damage to houses and trees

    There are no reports of injuries.

    There are also reports of localised flooding in many parts of the south-east.

    Legend says, it was a small county down in the south east of ireland, and sometime in the 21st century old ireland, vanished into an eye of a tornado.

    Tornadoes in Waterford, a rain-belt into Yemen, rain in mid Saudi Arabia, hurricane off Brazil..

    ..but no heatwave in Ireland. That's a little far-fetched.

    What do you mean, "Where is Waterford?" The utter cheek!!

    Anyway back to my initial reaction ... OH MY GOD poor waterford, and to think i am safe all the way up here in Dublin. My heart goes out to my fellow blaa's, hang in there, we have weathered bigger storms ;)

    bigger than athlone.
    This is hilarious, I was out walking my dog this evening went right past larchville even had good look over to see my grandmother's house, this was after the apparent "tornado" and everything looked grand. Then I get home and hear the news. Oh and I didn't know many meteorologists lived in Larchville :D

    p.s. before someone gives out to me for class snobbery I used to live there

    this post calls for an instant ban. txt speak will always be looked very poorly on boards.ie

    seen as it was your first post you need to be set straight right away.

    full words and punctuation, please :)

    okay 1st translation would be : ugh im cool and use text speak and actually LOL intead of laugh in public these days


    the 2nd translation to the best of my ability, is she was trying ot say this: look every1 there was a mini torando in waterford get over it :mad: yes it did some damage , nobody was injured , stop making fun , how do you think the people in those houses felt:( the atmostsphere is changing rapidly and its starting to have nothing to do with hot and cold fronts coliding:eek: shur its ireland , where would we get the hot front out off?! i looked up toandos on the internet and we had one in knock this year!!

    3rd translation would be : im doing my 2nd year geography homework at the moment , and looking up boards and texting as well, and getting them all mixed up ! *faceplam*


    *and bows*

    There is a number of these events in the country every year. Most times out in the arse end of nowhere where no-one sees it. Like the one in Waterford for example...

    Sorry Waterfordians(?). It's a great place, really.

    to all those out there im 20 years of age im sorry if you dont understand me but your probably not from this life time its 2008 not the 1900's and i thought this sight was for people to chat about different issues not bully others and laugh at them!

    text speak is usually not thought well off around here, and its use, sort of brings out this sort of response,
    afterhours forum on boards is usually a bit more free with expressions and commentry, so don't take it personally... all new members are welcome on boards... just leave the text talk to the mobile and it will be fine...
    try the waterford forum to talk about the tornado...

    Luckily, dlofnep was 2 minutes away from the horrible scene.

    My generation invented txt spk because we had ****ty mobiles. Now we don't so most of us left it behind.

    Use your full keyboard, you'll come across better on the forum.

    In fairness you have a keyboard in front of you, use it. Otherwise we won't know what you're saying half the time. If you were writing from your phone you'll just have to make your message shorter.

    Toall those people out there, I'm 20 years of age. I'm sorry if you don't (didn't maybe?) understand me but you're probably not from this lifetime(generation maybe?). It's 2008 not the 1900's and I thought this site was (is maybe?) for people to chat about different issues not bully others and laugh at them!
