7. The Weather: For sure the day before you get to Ireland the weather will have been perfect. While you're there, you can expect rain, heavy, rain, fog and then dense fog. Then in the afternoons, get all of that over again, plus wind, followed by heavy wind. Rain gear will be very useful as will two sets of golf shoes. An umbrella at the old head is pretty useless unless you like chasing useless things off cliffs. Somewhere in there, you might even get blazing sun and a pair of shorts might be useful also. Maybe. No ties or jackets required anywhere.
8. Bitching about everything is a national sport in Ireland. As is no one paying attention to People Bitching about things.
