A great day all told. Built one of the world’s shittest snowmen then took the kids to the hill we used to slide down as kids. They had a ball. Rounded off with a nice roast lamb dinner. Sensational.
Met Eireann have just upgraded the whole country to a red alert as of NOW
This is a surprising development and there must be something in their latest charts that shows the situation worsening more rapidly than expected.
More snow maybe?

Why is the red warning on now if it’s tomorrow afternoon before the blizzard starts?
Not a cloud in the Sky in Mid Tipperary right now. The breeze could cut you though.
Red warning? That’s it, I’m rolling down my sleeves until this madness has blown over
Holy fuckballs. Most of the snow on my road had melted and we just had a 10 mins blast of snow and all is white again with a couple of cms
It feels like Christmas Eve without the Christmas part.
Let’s hope no strange bearded men enter our Dwellings.
I’m sure there are a few social experiments out there, how the Irish react in a crisis, if Sellafield ever had a fallout, would people buy bread then? Its like we’re been conditioned. Its a strange thing to buy when entering survival mode. A week at most it would last, i feel frozen garlic bread is the way to go. It didn’t even get a mention.
Are you saying it’s the future?
Unreal. A bit of snow and there’s no bread on the shelves.
I thought this could never happen under capitalism, @anon7035031?
It’s a good thing, be thankful for the snow. A restricted calorie diet extends lifespan and decreases the incidence and progression of diseases. The shit sliced bread you get in the store is one of he worst things you could eat.
Socialists in history tend to take this calorie restriction thing a bit too seriously though.
Tesco @Galway Shopping Centre today.
Genius. If the Irish can’t go to Russia, we bring Russia to us.
Ole Ole Ole.
The US could do worse than follow their example.
I brought the dog in from outside tonight at 9.30pm for the first time in his life. He’s always slept in his own kennel outside which is a snug enough place for him but jaysus I felt so sorry for him tonight I caved in and had to bring him in. Not sure how he’ll settle inside tonight but so far so good and not a sound out of him. He’s on a mat in the sitting room. He was thrown down lying still as I was going to bed anyway with one eye open as if to say “This bloke has forgotten to put me back outside, remain still”. I hope he hasn’t shit all over the place when I get up.
The bread man is like Vladimir Lenin in his pomp.
