    So if you have a fall and break your back, can we tell the air rescue not to bother going up for you, as you don’t give a **** about anyone else?

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    Same here. Hopefully the emergency services don't end up having to divert much needed resources to assist a stranded skier.

    And the page was literally chock-a-block with inane questions: "Does ne1 no if <school> is open 2day?".....****e like that.

    The people that can't operate the internet beyond FB are the people I fear for the most during this event.

    A good cull would do wonders for the nation's average IQ. Do these people realise that they're actually on the internet when they're on Facebook?

    Seriously an entire day lost.
    The weather hasnt changed much in the past 24 hours. The warnings are from 4pm today and into tommorow.
    Why did the country have to close down today ??:confused:

    Yeah the weather hasnt changed much and driving conditions are still pretty sh*t.

    What critical piece of work did you have to do today that you couldn't get done?

    It’s already blizzard like out the window. It’s like I’m looking out of a snow globe.

    Best way to describe it. It's a bit surreal.

    Who cares, go on up in your jeep, which you somehow look at as a snow groomer or a tank :D. Have you snow chains fitted? If not then you're foolish. I've seen plenty of jeeps lying on the side of mountain passes in my time.

    They (the warnings) are in place to prevent accidents on the roads, as they are inexperienced or downright dangerous drivers all over the place.

    I have two sons in the Emergency Services, and on duty today.
    I hope they don't have to risk their lives rescuing idiots like you.

    Oh but don't worry @DanMurphy....'he has his jeep, so no worries there' :rolleyes:

    Hope they (your sons) are not put in harms way.

    In fairness to him he was more annoyed with the lack of organisation in Dublin airport.

    He's more angry about the lack of free drinks and steak or buckets of lamb chops
