The Men’s Valentine’s Day Battering

Wave goodbye…

robably not the smartest day to fill your buckets with seawater, but, this guy seemed to know what he was doing.

He, like the rest of us down at Greystones seafront this afternoon, just couldn’t be sure what those waves were going to do next.

Such as, hey, drench a guy. And send his two buckets scuttling down the steps, ready to break free into The Irish Sea.

It was that kind of day.

One second you’re standing on the almost-entirely submerged diving ramp down at The Men’s, the next you’re running for high ground as water comes gushing at you from just about every angle.

Not exactly historical, or hysterical, but a thrill to be witnessing nonetheless.

Just feel bad for the Happy Pear chef. Looks like his free range seafood chowder is off the menu today.

You can chart the ups and downs, and hide and seeks, of The Men’s right here. In the meantime, get ready for a little splish-splash… 

For contrast, here’s The Men’s basking in the July sun.
