So pic time again!
Here are some pics I took of the snow from a over a week ago. I took these about ten minutes after the snow started to fall. It snowed for six hours that day. Work was basicly shut, but was were all still there just in case DAA reopened. Snow brought my country to a standstill! We dont get snow in Dublin. We arent equipt for snow here.
So here are the pics














And here are a couple of Pics of me and my friends from last night!

    Arggg, I miss Bulmers! We don't have it here =(. Gorgeous, as always, Niamh.

    It snowed for nearly three days in Epsom recently- my friend went SNOWBOARDING in a few feet of snow in London =O! And somebody told me it wasn't supposed to snow in the U.K... looks like it's breaking the rules everywhere.

    Bulmers in Ireland is different to Bulmers in UK. two different companies. Outside of Ireland, Irish Bulmers is called Magners (because of the UK Bulmers) Bulmers/magners is way nicer than the UK Bulmers. You can get magners all over the globe. See if you can find an Irish bar in canada somewhere and see if they have Magners.
    There is still snow on the dublin and wicklow mountains. It hasnt snowed in a week. nutz.

    Aha, Magners was my drink of choice while overseas- I had no idea they were different. I haven't been able to find it anywhere in Canada, even at specialty bars and liquor stores. OH well.

    You guys call that snow? That's a dusting. Now Kizzo can tell you about snow. Even in New York we get a foot of snow once a year. I did enjoy the pictures. It is neat to see another part of the world. Thanks Niamh.

    that was only when it started. there was about three inches by the time i was going home.

    Oh, I'm sorry for laughing. You guys don't get the snow we get. Three inches is just about right to have a little fun without it really screwing things up.

    Nice pics, Niamh. I liked the first and the seventh And ofcourse, you look pretty, seems like you guys are having a lot of fun. I have no idea what Bulmers is...the only drink that I know is tea (if at all that qualifies)

    Trust me Virgil, it was enough to bring Dublin Airport to a stand still! Just not equipt for snow!
    Maddie, Bulmers (aka Magners outside ROI) is a Cider. It was great fun!
