Look on the bright side, sunny forecast for weekend

KEEP on the sunny side of life. While the summer weather may appear to be waning, the sunshine will be making a comeback on Saturday.

With beach volley, barbecues and surfing over the past few days, Bray began to resemble Brazil, Lahinch turned into Bondi Beach and Salthill seemed like St Tropez.

But the summer dream was rudely interrupted yesterday as temperatures of 30 degrees finally gave way to the Irish weather we know all too well.
