Anyone still holding out for a decent summer

I'm not. It just seems to get worse year after year. It's the 9th of June today and it could be the 9th of October.

I'm baffled why the countries original settlers actually, well settled here.

I can picture it now. Paddle paddle paddle, in their little canoes " Oh whats that on the horizon" paddle paddle paddle " Still can't make it out, It's covered in cloud and rain" paddle paddle paddle " and it's feckin freezing "

I know what i would have said " Fcuk this I'm off to Spain ":)

Shocking altogether...

great day for the ducks alright!

rovert · 09-06-2010 09:30PM

At least Ireland isnt in the World Cup. So I dont have to put up with that guff.

The_Kew_Tour · 09-06-2010 09:30PM

Catholic church are right about one thing, feck yer global warming.

Andrew33 · 09-06-2010 09:33PM

You're right, it's actually chilly enough today to warrant switching on the heating, But, have we Irish become that soft? considering our history, should we really worry about the weather?

Not worried about it just a bit annoyed tonight. Would be nice to pop out to a beer garden with a few mates and chill outdoors for a change.

BUGS_DRUNNY · 09-06-2010 09:38PM

It's Ireland the weather jus doesn't have seasons here!

Captain Darling · 09-06-2010 09:39PM

The greatest irish conversation topic ever.....

The weather.

smellslikeshoes · 09-06-2010 09:39PM

To be fair, there has been plenty of nice days so far this year. As soon as a bit of rain comes people just seem to forget what the weather was like a few days before hand.
Fact is I think no matter how many days of sun the Irish get we would still find a way to complain about it.

Herb Powell · 09-06-2010 09:42PM

ffs, man it's only been a couple of days of real rain so far this summer, and already you're asuming it'll be like this for the next few months? I hate when people do this

jd007 · 09-06-2010 09:44PM

Jesus Christ, why do people complain about everything. We had about a month of epic weather, we have a few days of rain/cloud and everyones back to complaining!

Or hang on a second and here is a novel idea, you could not take it so seriously.

What are you doing now?

BraziliaNZ · 09-06-2010 09:51PM

I went away a few weeks ago, weekend of 21st May, and you all had 24c and sunny etc. That's the only really nice weather we've had, and I missed it. What f**king "epic" weather have we had? Maybe not the wettest but there hasn't been much sunshine or warm temps at all.

kmurr04 · 09-06-2010 10:58PM

Although it is strange to have bad weather when the Junior and Leaving hits, thats when it is usually sunny :cool:

starbelgrade · 09-06-2010 11:01PM

Oh yeah - the weather has been bad in Dublin for a couple of days, so the rest of the country MUST be the same.

FFS.

weiland79 · 09-06-2010 11:03PM

Eh yeah Dublin = Whole of world

DazMarz · 09-06-2010 11:07PM

Ah yeah, I am still clutching at straws.

If not, come August... Viva Las Vegs, baby!!!:D

Anyone still holding out for a decent summer
