The 19 small victories of an Irish summer

These are worth celebrating.

1. Successfully guiding that f**king bluebottle out the kitchen window

2. Chancing not bringing a jacket… and not needing it. Score

3. The weather being good when you’re off work, as opposed to the other way round

4. Saying “It’s due to clear up please God” AND THEN IT CLEARS UP

5. Not getting sunburned despite being verrrry laissez-faire with the suncream

6. Getting seats on a beach-bound DART at noon on a warm, sunny Saturday

7. Correctly choosing an outfit that will cover all the Irish summer bases: Sun, clouds, wind, light rain, crazy rain

8. Buying a Brunch that actually has a decent amount of Brunch on it

9. The weather being bad when you’re out of the country on your holidays. HATE TO BE YE LOL

10. Ladies: Just happening to have your legs shaved and ready for what’s going to be a tights-free day

11. Nabbing the last packet of burger buns in Tesco

12. ’Getting the day’ for the 24th wedding you attend this year

13. When the nice weather runs on for a few days and everyone is kind of like “The f**k? OK then”

14. A free table in a beer garden

15. Tourists approaching you asking for directions to somewhere you actually know the directions to

16. Looking dead cool in your sunglasses

17. Going the whole day in sandals without getting a blister

18. It being hotter in Ireland than somewhere exotic, like Barcelona

19. And having a brolly on you to smugly produce it when it inevitably lashes rain
