    dun laoirghe isn't the correct spelling but it will do.

    I was studying in Spain last year and there was Thunderstorms like this!

    We had just gotten home from a club and i was twisted!

    Next morning i had a cold.

    My flatmates told me that i an out into the rain and storm in my boxers and was dancing around.

    They'd be some really funny memories if i could remember.... :mad:

    On the plus side if it's like a lake in there you should have a boat to sail around it in :pac:

    Just finished here in Rathmines. Same thing. Car alarms. Mental. Had my headphones on but they started fritzing. Took em off sharpish. Great show though. Hope not too much damage.

    Jaysus that was some loud carry-on!
    I think Christ went a bit emo while mourning Michael Jackson and started banging things.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    it has more or less stopped, this makes me a sad panda:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,572 ✭✭✭msg11


    Strong advice, go check on your cars, My two nearly just got wrecked, have them moved to a safe distance, and I am like I just got out of a power shower, the water is not even cold it warm :eek:
