Necessity is the mother of invention. Make hay while the sun shines. Basically, just pick your favourite proverb and it probably applies to summer in Ireland. While that golden ball of happiness hangs around in the sky, we’re on the annual mad scramble to make the most of it before it disappears again. Some of us are better at such inventiveness than others. These guys = legends.
Feel free to send us your snaps too, you’ll find us at [email protected]!

Richard O’Flynn took advantage of the fine weather to “plant and water some tulips he had lying around”.
Meet Holly and Izzy.
Laura McCarthy posted a polite request with her pool pic…
Dorothy Hession shared a throwback snap from summer 2013
The winner of this round, however, has to be Laura Swan. Laura sent a selection of pictures from her homemade pool, located in a silage trailer. Epic.
