Snow ruins punting. Never offer to give a mate a lift.
Well what can I say but. WELL DONE DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL. NO GRIT, WHAT A MESS.
Let me explain (rant).
I was merrily on my way into Dublin from a job in the Tullow direction on the N81 yesterday, the roads were bad but passable.
I was aiming to arrive in Dublin for 2pm as I had a hot date with Anna :) for 3pm.
It was snowing lightly all the time, but when I got to the Tallaght Bypass @1.30 all hell broke loose. Total chaos, the road had turned into a sheet of ice and traffic had ground to a standstill.
Cars sliding all over the place, sideways, forwards, backwards.
Sitting in my car at 2.30 still only about 400 meters farther I came to the dreadful realisation that I hadn't a snowballs chance in hell of making it I texted Anna the bad news.:mad:
Anna was great about it ( Thanks Anna ). But boy was I pissed off.
I still had to go into Dublin anyway as I had to pick up a Mate at the train station.
Didn't make it there till 6.45 :mad:
And then what a trip home :mad::mad:
Where I live is usually an hour journey south of Dublin.
Took till feckin 10.45 to get there.:mad:
11 hours in the car !!
Next time I coming up the day before :)
And thanks again Anna ( going off to check weather channel )
That’s right, snow ruins punting...
Thanks to the snow and ice we had many cancelled appointments last 3 days.... :(
So because of snow and ice there wont be any puting in Ireland??? :shocked: hahaha :p :D :santa1: :devils1:
DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL better do something about it soon!!! :dance:
THANKS! :D
