AskMyChocolate · 18-02-2011 02:37AM #1

... and what are you looking forward to about the summer?

I'll miss the incredible smell of turf burning but I'm looking forward to my brother ringing me and asking me if we could sneak in a quick 9 holes before work.

He's the one with the job.

Crisp winter nights. Especially around halloween time when theres a sinister feeling about the place.

Will (not) miss: driving from Limerick to Dublin on the glorified skating rink that was the M50/N7/M7

Dangerous Man · 18-02-2011 04:38AM

I live in Canada. I won't miss Winter. Roll on Summer and crazy 40c days. Drinking beer on my porch. Winter is shit.

OPENROAD · 18-02-2011 07:36AM

The early dark evenings and the rain.

Kimono-Girl · 18-02-2011 09:32AM

i'll miss the dark nights curled up on the couch with a duvet, movie and candles lighting,

im looking forward to teaching our daughter how to have a kick around with a ball in the park, how to peddle her bike, and watching her running around and climbing in the jungle gym's in general. taking her swimming at the beach, fota...etc

summer outings i guess you'd call it!

pickarooney · 18-02-2011 09:33AM

Pretty much nothing. I don't see any value in Winter. Year-round summer FTW.

krudler · 18-02-2011 09:35AM

Getting dark early, frosty mornings, rain (well thats still around but its that sh1tty humid rain that we class as a summer) and Halloween, love the feel of the place around then.

yeppydeppy · 18-02-2011 09:41AM

Roaring fires

St.Spodo · 18-02-2011 10:09AM

There's absolutely nothing I'll miss about winter per se.Good times are had in winter but the warm months are far better

cock robin · 18-02-2011 10:16AM

I shall miss looking at the world from what seemed at times like the inside of an ice cube. No power, no phone, no heat. I shall also miss the near three weeks of bonding with all my family in the cold and the dark and the quiet. Not an whirr from an xbox,ps3 nothing. I shall miss feeling like a caged animal waiting for a council road scraper to emerge in the night and scrape me a path back to consumerism. But it was nature that came to my rescue and the snow left. In fact winter you can shove it up your bollix for free and fcuk off while your at it.:D

jackiebaron · 18-02-2011 10:20AM

Live in Amsterdam. Work in Germany.

What I'll miss about winter: Gluhwein at the Christmas markets.

To look forward to: Scantily-clad frauleins and topless sunbathers in the Vondelpark.

FatherLen · 18-02-2011 10:24AM

What will I miss about Winter.....fook all! Horrible time, short days, cold weather, rain, dreaded snow, racing being called off left, right & centre

Bring on the summer!

Elmer Blooker · 18-02-2011 10:51AM

Is there any difference between winter and summer in this country? (Dec was an extreme event which we'll probably never see again in our lifetime)
A typical winter day sees rain and temperatures of around 10-12 degrees under a blanket of cloud, a typical summer day sees rain and temperatures of around 15-16 degrees under a blanket of cloud.

The difference is we can have FESTIVALS in the summer and you can sleep in your tent at it and you'll be fine, even if it is raining/cloudy.

Try sleeping in a tent, in the middle of a field, in December or January and you'll get hypothermia!

Feck winter, roll on the festival season.........:cool:

Novella · 18-02-2011 11:59AM

I'll miss that crisp feeling on frosty mornings.
