Amazing comment.
Your first Spring? Have you been living underground?
You made me laugh so bad @deirdyweirdy :)
After 2 years in Dublin in 2005 I moved to Asia and I lived in various countries (mostly thailand and malaysia) for past >10 years.
The only weather they know is: hot or hotter :)
ps.
I bet Dublin doest look very different now.
We're being told they're Syrian refugees but Syria is crying out for their men to return and rebuild, so why would they be seeking refuge?
Polish goverment has very different approach in that aspect. Instead of "taking" refugees they are trying to help rebuild Syrian economy. At least that's what they tell us (regular joes :)
If this continues, we'll be a minority in our own country within 20 years.
Most likely. But that would mean that your population still need to double (almost). Maybe it wont be that bad, but surely your country will face enormous challenges.
Fingers crossed.

You wouldn't recognise Dublin. Entire streets have been demolished, there are building sites everywhere, the skyline is filled with cranes and you'd be hard-pressed to find a Dubliner anywhere.
Regarding the population, we have a small but rapidly growing number of young Muslims with high birth rates. I have nothing against Muslims but I fear for our native customs and way of life which is entirely alien to them.
This is all very saddening to hear @deirdyweirdy
I dont think I will ever like to visit Dublin. I want to remember it the way it was in 2005-2007.
Yours, Piotr
The Irish Times Dublin crane count reached a record 123 in March – the fifth consecutive month when the survey recorded a new high.
