    What's your memories of it?

    Will it ever visit Ireland again?

    Did we not speak nice to it last time, is that why it's not coming back?:(

    I love snow, but I don't think I'll ever see snow again.:(

    GoodBye snow:)

    Its been two feckin weeks and people are acting like we've suddenly been mass transported to the equator.

    Can we not just enjoy a good summer without giving out about everything.

    I f'ucking hate long periods of heavy snow. A couple of days of moderate snow is grand.

    We don't deserve spells of good weather quite frankly. People here as so ungrateful when t comes to good weather.... First day they're off to work on their farmer tan, two days later it is all "WAaaaaaahhh, warm weather is warm"

    No, it's an Irish trait to give out about the weather, hot or cold.

    In all fairness, I was finding it tough to deal with the heat when it first happened, but after 2 weeks now i'm getting well used to it, even sleeping in it. So it just takes time, as we hardly ever get warm hot weather like this so it makes sense to give time for people to acclimatise to it, just like me.

    It is close, tonight.

    wouldnt you like to get a little closer hmm....sexter.

    Right, I've got me hat, gloves, scarf, coat, thermals, boots and crampons on (must turn down the heat) ready to clear the driveway for the morning before it hardens. Cheers for the heads up. Brrrrr

    It snowed here in March. I remember it was cold.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,499 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    A Polish friend of mine once remarked that we don't have any real seasons here compared to them. It just rains all year round and the temp is higher in the summer.

    This blast of sunshine is a break from the norm, just like the record cold snow winters in recent years were. We should enjoy it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,801 ✭✭✭Ruudi_Mentari


    and we had a record high of 30c yesterday so it is only getting hotter :D acclimatize; already or die.

    The cold weather kills more old biddies anyhow

    It's not a "good summer" to everyone you know. :rolleyes: just like 2 weeks of heavy snow isn't everyone's cup of tea, everything in moderation you know.

    I personally find this weather hard to deal with. It makes me feel sick, I have a near constant headache, I burn like nobody's business, it makes me drowsy and in turn all I want to do is stay inside and wait for it to go away, and because I'm not walking around with 2nd degree burns all over my body, clearly there's something wrong with me.

    In short. Fock this weather. That it may piss down rain for the rest of the year.

    What about those who really just don't enjoy it. Should they pretend to, in order to appease the folks who love it? Or maybe just ignore their whinging and even have a bit of empathy. That works for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,079 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    No matter where I have lived, everyone comments on the weather. It isn't an Irish thing.

    Why do we always think everything is a solely Irish trait? Probably as many of us are very insular.

    On the topic at hand. Snow is awesome. wouldn't miss my ski holiday for anything.

    Saying "Typical Irish" and "Only in Ireland" in relation to stuff that anyone from any nationality would say/do... is what's a very Irish trait.

    What would be good about that? Shur the best aspect is the sun shining - in that sense there's no difference between this and 40 degrees.
    40 degrees would obviously be way too oppressively hot, and we don't have the facilities for it, unlike countries where it happens a lot, so there is widespread air-conditioning.
