    It is fabulous but unfortunately no water supply in large area's of the Midlands since 3pm yesterday, a mains burst apparently but my god what a time not to have water supply, horrendous, Irish water working on the problem, could do with a cold shower

    One of those rare Irish days when I'm actively seeking the shade!

    Was up at 7am to catch the morning high tide and even at that hour it was shorts and t-shirt weather.

    Seems apt to give this a plug...

    Every window open and fan by my lounger, fridge full of a variety of chilled drinks, cricket on TV, I’ve nowhere to be... heaven.

    I’m sitting in the coldest room in the house in my shorts and still roasting. Verging on too hot for me.

    I feel bad for complaining considering how crap our weather normally is.

    Was 30 at 10am.


    Was out around South kerry for the day enjoying the scenery.

    Currently sitting in the garden at 21C having dinner and watching the landscape of North kerry below me. That sun is still hot

    I don't really share in the excitement when the weather is like this. Personally I find it too hot to do anything comfortably. I went in to town earlier to get a few bits and needed a shower after it. I'd never cope if I lived in a warmer climate. I'd much prefer a clear blue sky Autumn day with a bit of a chill in the air.

    I’m in my mobile home by a beach. I spent most of the day inside with all the windows open and a fan going. Went down swimming a while ago. It was actually much cooler on the beach than up here, even though it’s only 100m away.

    Its currently 11 degrees inside my fridge.

    Had a great time though last night photographing the stars until 1.30 am in a T-shirt and shorts.

    Went to mow the grass and lasted about 15 mins.

    I love the heat when I'm abroad but hate it at home. I find 35 degrees in Italy easier to cope with than 25 degrees in Ireland.

    Love this abroad and more but I don't enjoy it at home.



  • Registered Users, Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 2,158 Mod ✭✭✭✭Nigel Fairservice


    I found that with the cold. I've been in -20/-25 when I lived in Canada but I never found it as cold as Ireland.

    I'm in the very small minority, but I feckin hate this weather. As a ginger, it was never going to be good for me, but by Jesus the last couple of nights have been horrendous. I work/live nights, so my waking hours are 4pm-9am. At 6am this morning, in shorts and a tshirt at work (at home), I was sweating just sitting there.

    Went to the chipper for dinner, pretty sure I got burned in the 10 minutes my arm was in the sun. Skin on my head feels a bit tight, so I'm probably burnt there too, and my head was in the sun less! I had a shower when I got up, and I need another now. I hate this.

    Much prefer a freezing winter to this weather, but autumn is my time really. Clear days but low temps. As I always say, it's easy to warm up, it's impossible to cool down. Bring on October! This weather does have one good benefit though, and that's scantily clad ladies. But even today would have been too hot to go for a perv drive.
