The weather thread

Kate how are ye getting around? Now is not the time to bash you if you drive an SUV

Tractors have an awful habit of going on fire.

At least it isn't a Ford Explorer, they have a habit of going on fire AND rolling over.

A wee grey massey would have done as good

The river is flat over the weir and rising. The Met is giving a few hours break in the rain, normal rain tomorrow afternoon and then heavy again on Monday and Tuesday. We don't expect flooding before tomorrow afternoon, but after that the lower part of the place may well be in for it.

The night will be spent moving things up and sandbagging.

Kate p. , I hope these inclement weathers don't damage yees all too much. I don't envy the position you're in.

Check out Belfast

Raining again in Dublin

Well at least you didn't stand out in it for 85 mins, standing in a puddle, with nothing but a ridiculously unfashionable marquee-like poncho to protect from being pissed on non-stop while your team is being pissed on non-stop by the opposition. On top of that, paying 20 euro for the privilege of your own ticket, and another twenty as it was the decent thing to do for the ould fella.

And for all I put myself through, the f*ckers couldn't even catch a ball, and then Ronnie Drew goes and dies. I shall be writing all this down on a list and showing it to my maker when the time comes.

And look what it did to your hair.

We don't all have the resources to grease into position like yourself mr Reagan. Rumour has it that's what caused the oil crisis in the seventies.

I measc na laochra atá tú. Caithfidh sé éisteacht leat. Muna n-éisteann , le hIfreann leis/léi.

Pity about the match, and the poncho, but at least Wexford won't have to meet you.

Again. Though if they had played against us today with they way we were, they would have walked over us easily. We're too inconsistent to win a championship.

This is not good news for the cactus shack. The river is already higher than I've seen it since we first came here over ten years ago, and its catchment stretches up in your direction. We've moved several hundred books, rugs, drumkits, bags, boots, boxes of ?, and so on into higher parts of the house. It seems certain if we're not flooded tonight we will be by early next week. The water table is at this stage higher than the river.

Wexford knows a lot about inconsistency , although mainly in hurling.

Preab isteach le clann Dhoire. Fó-iarracht an t-am ar fad. Ba chóir do Choiste Átha Cliath duine nach de bhunadh Átha Cliath a roghnú mar cheannaire chun coimhlint na bparóistí a chur xhun báis...agus an rud is measa ní dhéanfaidh siad.

Ach nach raibh Tommy Lyons acu tráth, ach ní cuireadh ceal sa choimhlint sin?

It is frustrating when you see your team outperforming the opposition to an embarrassing extent in one game, then in the next losing to the same degree. It's almost like having a team that's bipolar.
