    @Daragh Cassidy: Don’t fall for that rubbish Story, this is Dublin/ Ireland we’re talking about..! It’ll be Sunny out all next week… Penneys just need to get rid of a few hundred thousand, ( instead of a few thousand ) extra raincoats & umbrellas that somebody from Stock misordered..!

    Red alert! Let’s queue to clear out the local supermarkets like during ‘Hurricane’ Ophelia! No better people to prepare for dramatic siege conditions. We panic without basic provisions like crisps, white bread and tea……

    Remember real snow in the 80′s? None of this melennial rubbish! People in my village would battle through 4ft drifts to get to the church on Sunday. Not for mass, for the bloody great snowball fight after the service.
