    So just to balance out the hate thread!

    What do you love about summertime in Ireland?

    I love when I finish work that there's time to walk the pier and have a teddy's ice cream and still have a few hours to do as you please before the moon comes out to play.

    Walking into town (Galway), down High St and Quay St to the Spanish Arch,out to the prom in Salthill then back to the arch and sipping cans down there on a nice summer's evening. And then ending up in the pub to finish off a lovely day.

    Beer gardens. Lazy Sundays in the sun. Butterflies. Barbecues. Eying up the talent behind the cover of your sunglasses. Getting sunburn on one arm while you're driving around with the windows down and the sound system up.

    The things I love about the summer time in Ireland are
    Long romantic walks in the evenings.
    Birds singing.
    Relaxing on the grass reading a good book.
    The way everybody is happy.
    I also think men wearing sandles and socks with their white legs are quite funny he he.

    Driving with the car window down. Opening all the windows in my apartment and filling it with a nice warm breeze. Walking on grass or sand with bare feet. Everyone is happier. Oh, my birthday is in summer! Mr Freeze ice pops <3 BBQ corn on the cob, mmm.

    Day scoops in a beer garden are damn hard to beat!
    Also taking the missus and the kids and heading off up the mountains or some place similar with a disposable barbeque and 20 pounds of raw meat - heaven:D

    the 3 days of blue skies and baking heat we get and you have yourself convinced it's going to stay like that for the rest of the summer

    Wearing loose shorts and letting my ballsack swing free.

    Feeling of fresh talc caressing the shady side of my nutbag and the gentle 'thwackkk' of my knob as she smacks off my inner thigh, unfettered by the constraints of constricting jocks as the air swishes through the generous cut of my shorts and aerates the viscous folds of my cluster and keeps me cool and comfy.

    Can't be whacked, I say, can't be whacked;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 247 ✭✭seanaor


    The fact that theres a bit less rain than in the winter.

    Public Nips!

    I drove with the windows down today as I had a massive flat pack wardrobe out the windows and I got the lovely smell of various types of slurry and of a dead deer. All I can say is who ever invented A/C is not getting enough credit.
