    Thumbing died out around the early 2000's, with more frequent buses to/from Tramore and so many people could afford their own cars or the bus fare. I'm surprised it hasn't made a comeback yet but maybe people still stuck in Celtic Tiger mode would be embarrased about thumbing a lift.

    XXXXwarningXXXXX the post below is the same as the opening post ...pointless



    experts agree that this summer will be one the current seasons of 2012
    professor aga van hoogentoogen was recently quoted as sayin he predicts that "summer will be fantastic collection of hours weeks and months combined into one season closely followed by a slightly more pedestrian autumn"
    so there it is, you heard it straight from the horses mouth get your clothes and food ready because this summer is definitely coming straight after spring and before autumn

    Meterologists can usually only give you a 5 day forecast and even then its a shot in the dark. Someone telling you the weather in 5-6 months time is like picking the winner of the Grand National, blindfolded using a pin.

    Nooooooo I hates heatwaves. Gimme a cold day over hot anytime. Seriously. Im brutal with heat. If I was in the cathedral and someone put on one lightbulb I would find the heat umnareable haha its horrible.
    Had me fan on the other night and it seems to be on its last legs. May sort it out just in case :/
