    Met Eireann winding people up again!

    Not according to those in my home place, trees down all over the place, flooding and lots of roof damage.. Granted, not the Armageddon that was predicted by Met Eireann, but better safe than sorry. :)

    Some images from home (borrowed from and compliments to the guys on the weather forum)

    There's a 20ft high pier under that water somewhere:

    Hello all! Awec check in from Magaluf (just woke up, lying in my wee sick bed right now)

    Never, ever, ever doing this type of holiday again. From sleeping outside all night, paying to get my ears pierced while absolutely hammered but thankfully not going through with it at the last minute cause they didn't have the colour I wanted to just full on madness.

    I am absolutely destroyed. 5 nights in a row, I never ever want to see vodka again once I get home.

    Next year I'm going to the sun for a relaxing week :D

    Though I have seen avicii, Tinie tempah and Calvin Harris all live and all 3 were absolutely banging.

    Only seen the sun once! :pac:

    It would have been so funny if you had gone through with getting your ear pierced :P

    Such a nice day today :)

    Yeah Calvin Harris is fantastic live, saw him in Croatia 2 years ago at the Enter Festival in Split.. The music sounds soooo much better when the weather is warm and everyone is in such better mood :D

    I missed out on my cousins stag do in Cyprus a few years back and everyone on the stag in a fit of drunken stupidity got their nipple pierced, including my uncle who was in his 50's..

    To say it was funny 2 days later at the wedding when they were all in bits, with swollen painful nipples at the wedding in 40 degrees of heat was an understatement.. :D

    I'll hopefully get some city breaks in then take holidays at Christmas and try to relax properly - one of my best friends is back from Oz so can't wait to see her :)

    Maybe try to head away in April or May next year and then again in September if possible - I'm worth it :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,404 ✭✭✭✭Pembily


    I'm thinking about a 3 week holiday next year. Not sure where but somewhere I haven't been!

    City breaks are great Paulie! If you want a city break / sun, I highly recommend Valencia :D

    Never - when I holiday it's in the sun.

    My brother's going to Florida for a year in October and won't be home for Christmas so thinking of heading to the states for two weeks. A week in Florida, a week in New York or something like that.

    Well considering I spent the whole hour on boards/facebook they could have cheated but briefly looking through the answers, they didn't!

    I thought the equation was Alcohol + Alcohol = Win?

    Alcohol + alcohol = 2alcohol but as alcohol = win, alcohol + alcohol = 2win

    BUT

    Alcohol + school night + alcopops = bad idea + ill stomach!!
