Summertime and the livin’ is easy
Posted on | June 8, 2007 | 47 Comments
Ahh, I love summer, I have to say.
Winter is completely gay, what with its cold, rain, damp and frost. Also, there are Albanians everywhere in winter and that vexes me greatly.
Spring, it’s sort of like winter’s bitch. One day you think you’re escaping its clutches and the next it’s fucking horrible again.
Autumn isn’t too bad. It’s like summer’s bitch and often we get these ‘Indian’ summers with hot days in September although the emergence from the woods of Apaches and Navajos having at each other with tomahawks and the like can make the Phoenix Park a more dangerous place.
Is there anything nicer than sitting out in the sun drinking beer watching the world go by. We tried to get Ron to install a beer garden but he told us to fuck off and called us ponces. In hindsight sitting at the back of Ron’s staring a concrete wall rather than overlooking the sea probably wouldn’t have been much fun.
The other day I went up to the Blue Light, a place Adam Clayton knows well, but it was all a bit Deliverance and fearing for my bottom I went elsewhere.
This weekend I think I might find a pub with views of the snot green sea and drink pints until I fall over. How about you?

Or better still, buy booze and sit on the beach1

Drinking pints is a good thing alright. It’s nice to change the pub scenery every now and then too. Get in a rut otherwise.

Drinking till I fall over is just part of everyday. Whether it’s staring at the sea or not I couldn’t be arsed!
Drinking the beach is now illegal here thanks to those fecking fascists in the local council. Still that won’t stop me.

cold pints and a beer garden, ye can’t beat it.
But whats the best thing about summer? The fact that women wear less cloths. A bit of sunshine goes straight to their heads and they’re all out in their skimpies. Deadly buzz
June 8th, 2007 @ 10:38 am
fair play to you twenty. The blue light has to be one of the best boozers in Dublin. You’re right about some of the mid week punters though.

Inis Meain on the ferry, snot green sea, food and wine……heaven!
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:06 am
Interesting Twenty that you leave one pub fearing for yer bottom, only to seek another with a view of the scrotum tightening sea.

“Winter is completely gay”.
Such hyprocrisy. I just read your post about Paisley Jnr.
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:30 am
Off to Prague for the weekend. Czech beer by the barrel load and maybe a wee bit of falling over.
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:36 am
Are you suggesting winter is not gay?
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:39 am
Winter is sooooo gay!
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:40 am
Winter is gayer than Graham Norton licking Elton John’s anus dressed in a pink french maids outfit on Christmas day in San Francisco whilst Elton masturbates onto a picture of Librace being sucked off by Truman Capote in a tutu in the Phoenix park with Emmet Stagg looking on with his dick in his hand.

Yes, I am saying a season is not homosexual. What are you? Thick?
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:47 am
Blarneyman sucks winters dick, the big faggoty queer.

I know what you mean about drinking in the Sunshine. Today we got five minutes of light showers which was very strange but its now 29 C again. I think the bombs are having an effect on the clouds. Tomorrow I will sit in my pool until 3 drinking and then its off to the pub for a beer drinking competition. Sunday I will sit recovering by my pool probably getting burned and puking. The high life eh.
Tell me are you a bidet person or would you avoid them?

Ooooh, Liverpool’s playing at home, obviously.
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:53 am
McDara, are you sure its quite safe to be sitting around drinking beer in a pool when bombing is happening, like an er..sitting duck?
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:55 am
apaches don’t throw tomahawks any more, just pizzas, although jalapeno peppers are just as lethal.
littlesapling, a warning – snot green food and wine have probably been sitting around in the sun a bit too long.

Did you ever see that film with Jane Fonda and Cher about some nuclear power plant? Well, they go through this decontamination thing where they get showered and scrubbed with garden brushes.
That’s what I do after each poo so there’s no need for a bidet. Good for washing sand off your feet though.

“Inis Meain on the ferry, snot green sea, food and wine……heaven!”
Yes thats snot green sea..the food will be dofferent colours hopefully!
June 8th, 2007 @ 11:58 am
may even have some porridge for breccy
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:00 pm
Enough of the small talk Twenty – are you and Paris an item again now that she’s out ?
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:00 pm
ooh, missus. so how do you like your eggs in the morning (old joke)?
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:12 pm
always check toilets and bidets for bombs – hint: if the toilet paper has boom written on it, don’t sit down. the thought of ending up in a bath with your trousers down and mel gibson on top of you is too scary for words.
note that the only thing twenty remembered about the film was jane fonda and cher in the shower getting rubbed down.

“Ooooh, Liverpool’s playing at home, obviously.”
Says the guy who spent all day yesterday writing about his Abba fetish.
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:32 pm
Johnny5, sounds like you have some latent homosexuality in you. Stop pointing fingers and stick them up your ass where you’d no doubt get a better kick. Pathetic.
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:42 pm
Yeah, Johnny5, you just don’t get it.
June 8th, 2007 @ 12:49 pm
I think I’ll go swimming in the sea instead.
June 8th, 2007 @ 1:40 pm
So if Winter is gay, are Autumn and Spring Bi?
June 8th, 2007 @ 1:45 pm
yes Bi- atches
June 8th, 2007 @ 2:22 pm
Blarneyman I dont normally recycle comments but since you got on the topic. Here the question I raised for the Ian Jounior Gay Blog.
On a similar note why cant I refer to something as Gay anymore ? I dont see anything wrong with being gay and so why is it seen as being wrong to call something gay. Next we wont be able to refer to things as Girly, Boys Toys, chick flicks the list goes on.
And mores to the point what about Gay Byrne should we call him by his middle name now instead Mary Byrne.
June 8th, 2007 @ 2:29 pm
and when but summertime do you get things like the Street Performance World Championships?
given your knowledge of the art, twenty, i assume you sit on the judging panel??
June 8th, 2007 @ 3:33 pm
at least there aren’t any mimes. hate those couldn’t be arsed learning the words lazy fucks. does splodge rent out his tazer?
June 8th, 2007 @ 3:34 pm
Macdara, I really only brought it up to wind up Twenty. It doesn’t offend me but then I’m not gay but I do remember Jonathan Ross on his radio show once saying he found it wrong how kids now describe anything wrong or stupid as gay.
June 8th, 2007 @ 5:08 pm
Twenty, your site is No 1 on Google for the search term “Mary Harney naked”. Seriously. I thought you would like to know.
June 8th, 2007 @ 6:43 pm
twenty, have you been holding out on us?…Is your blog really a front for a Marney Harney porn site?…Hmmm Marney Harney…good porn name that.
June 8th, 2007 @ 7:41 pm
It’s going to rain here, so I’ll be staying inside, drinking pints and such.
June 8th, 2007 @ 8:29 pm
MacD, relax. Blarney is just a poor soul without a sense of humour.
June 9th, 2007 @ 10:15 am
Gee – I would have thought that spring could be considered more happy & gay than the other months, but the summers up your end would be a bit spring-like compared to down here in the fires of hades.
I try to encourage my wee ones to use alternatives for the much used discriminatory “gay,” but there’s only so many times you can say fuck-knuckle and cuntface – if anyone could invent some new swear words, rather than rehashing and reinventing swear-phrases, I am sure you’re our man Twenty.

The Ocean Bar – now there is where it’s at.
June 10th, 2007 @ 12:48 am
Got burnt to fuck today (seriously…never had purple patches before. ever.) watching an “all day” (clue is in the question) football competition my 10 year old played in…..can’t wait for winter and the Armenians.
June 10th, 2007 @ 12:48 am
sorry. Albanians.
June 10th, 2007 @ 12:50 am
and it was only 20 centigrade… fucking irish complexion.
June 10th, 2007 @ 1:22 pm
Ah, the Blue Light… bikers, and Mr Clayton holding his own. Brings me back. Next thing you’ll be reminding me of the emotional piscine episode. Time gentlemen, please!
June 10th, 2007 @ 6:22 pm
what fuckwit suggested Ocean bar? A pretentious one thats what. I have the misfortune to work beside Ocean and have to pass several dozen thick as shit braying overly loud wankstains every day. Oh yeah – the ceilings are too high there so you can’t hear anybody is saying so they all have to talk REALLY LOUDLY.
We need a Stardust to thin out their ranks we really do.
June 10th, 2007 @ 9:09 pm
Well Silly..at least you are trying to live up to your name. Whose children will be burned to death this time??? Yours?? Your friend’s??? Really a “silly” comment to make. (in my opinion)
June 11th, 2007 @ 6:25 pm
It’s the location Silly – and the company. Get yourself a few pals and enjoy the sunshine and fresh water and stop blubbing on about how unfortunate you are when there are worse off people than yourself out there.
Like those unfortunate sods who sit at those roadside cafe’s on Dame Street… for fuck’s sake – they get a great view of traffic
