    Have a few of them here in Cavan. Some are settled now though but the parties are just unreal. One of them passed away. They laid him out in the house and a full on 3 day rave commenced. Lovely sound people.

    Loads of them in West Cork, mainly English, German and Dutch or at least there were when I was growing up in the 80's and 90's. The word "hippy" makes me giggle as my mother would use the term to describe anyone who looked like they belonged to a subculture or were just a bit weird. Even punks and Cureheads would get labeled thus.

    Hippies are cool. Anyone know if there are some communes still active in Cork?

    I wouldn't mind spending a few weeks or months in one just for divilment. VW Campers, weed, camp fires, colourful thingimebobs all around, wooden houses, love all of that stuff.

    Dieing to have a go

    Body&Soul Festival perhaps. :D

    What's the difference between a hippie chick and an ice hockey player?

    After three periods, the hockey player goes for a shower....


    (That's it, I'm outta here)

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I don’t know where the communes are but the layabouts in Eyre Square (usually with English accents for some reason) will be able to tell you
