My Greystones: Summer Smullen

Plainly part of the Mowatt dynasty of Greystones beauties (what the hell are they drinking in that clan?), Summer Smullen is proof that our future looks bright.

And wide-eyed. And curious. And mischievous. 

The youngest of, oh, about 27 kids, Summer just turned 2 on the first day of December, and she can already give you the look that says, been there, had an ice-cream, threw a stone at that.

Of course, having Robyn, Poppy and Ollie as older siblings has meant Summer has plenty of guidance and advice when it comes to figuring out this world, and, with just a little help and a smidgen of luck, there’s a very good chance that she might just rule it one day.

It’s that look. And the surprising force behind those stone throws.

So, as much as we like celebrating the rich past of this glorious town, we also like to look forward, to what lays ahead. 

Suffice to say, if we can keep coming up with little fireballs of fun like Summer Smullen, we reckon Greystones will be the capital of Ireland within 50 years. Maybe even 49, if we make the effort.
