    94-99 I just have one blur of memories of all decent enough summer days


    06-08 + '11 I just have sharp and clear recollections of rain.


    Its probably just my nostalgia I know the summers were hotter on average in the 90s werent they yeah?

    Marty Morrissey said that after the 1992 Munster football final win over Kerry. My personal favourite was Anthony Daly. "In Clare we love our traditional music but we love our hurling too". Happy days :):)

    Boom Boom Boom was a hit during the Summer of '95



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,329 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    If I recall 95 correctly it was a heatwave. Stuck in an office without aircon in the city centre. Worst part was that any rain we had tended to fall on the weekends that summer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,967 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    This song was everywhere


    Batman was the big summer blockbuster


    Great song, terrible film. Well this was out a few months before summer


    Bitchin cool ad :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,298 ✭✭✭✭later12


    That... was the year of the Munich bother.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,560 ✭✭✭southsiderosie


    Oof, that was a hot summer. I was working as a lifeguard in Chicago and the pools and beaches were packed. Over 700 people died from the heat, it was that intense.


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


    this was one of my favourites of the summer



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,215 ✭✭✭mrsdewinter


    95 was a great summer - the good weather seemed to go on and on. Great chart music too. Blur, Oasis, Supergrass... They all formed the soundtrack to a great year. God, I miss the 90s...

    Are you sure Die Hard With a Vengeance came out that year? I remember seeing it in the cinema but it wasn't 1995. Coz I was going into secondary school then.

    Haven't a clue what the summer was like. I think I went camping a lot.
