Another week, you guessed it, time for another visit to the theatre @bordgaisenergytheatre This time was the turn of the whip crack away comedy classic musical @calamityjanelive . When we became aware that this Doris Day classic musical was coming to Dublin, we got tickets for the front row during presale for opening night. An added bonus was when we heard the award winning talented @carriehopefletcher was gonna be playing the fearless gun singing Calamity, we knew we were g

Another Tuesday night meaning another trip to the theatre @bordgaisenergytheatre When we heard Jason Donovan @jdonofficial was gonna Frank-N-Furter in Rocky Horror Picture Show and were able to get member rate tickets, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to witness this musical again especially with Jason in the lead role.

With life finally getting back to normal now, everything unpacked, settled into the new place completely, thought it was time to finally pay the donation I owed Padre Pio, that I promised him, during the stress of finding a place to live. Managed to find a Capuchin Order Friary on Church Street near Smithfield. As is usually my nature in the lead up to Christmas, I went Christmas shopping around the October mid term. As I am working in retail too long, that I won't think of d

After a tiring weekend working over the August bank holiday weekend, was great to have a well earned me day. Began the day with a short visit to the Irish Sand Sculpture 2014 at Dublin Castle, with a particular highlight being the sand sculpture of Albert Einstein. After putting it off for years, decided to finally  give Odessa a try for lunch. The one time I go, I had the whole restaurant to myself for the  entire time, which was funny but was nice. The food was what I expec

The excitement for the Flora Women Mini Marathon, all started when Clodagh came up on the Saturday afternoon, we spent the rest of the day and night, shopping and catching up on all the gossip. It was really when  +Liam  met us in town after work, when things got fun, as we all had to trek out on the bus, to the RDS to collect race numbers and goodies and sample the food on offer. After all that, decided to check out the Dublin Port Riverfest, in the docklands. All 3 of us, w

On route to work whilst on Twitter and Facebook, I managed to get the details and then buy 2 tickets for  +Ed Sheeran  secret gig at Vicar Street on May Bank holiday Monday. As soon as I could managed to change my hours in work to leave a tad bit earlier. After work on that Monday, I met  +Niamh  on route to the gig, where we met mates Micheal and Sarah in the bar of course, after collecting the tickets from the box office first. When Ed came on stage, everyone went crazy, ou

After quite a long week, both myself and +Niamh  couldn't wait for Saturday and  +Miranda Hart . We managed to get tickets on Living Social for the +Jeanie Johnston Tall Ship and Famine Museum  for 6.50€ instead of 18 euro. I was lucky enough to get my bus to almost at the ship where I meet Niamh. There was a few people gathered outside the office, including ourselves, the door was locked, which worried a few of us, but the tour guide it seems runs the office and tour simulta

Monday May 20th,  +Liam  got a call from the Alfred centre to cancel his OPD appointment due to a mis-communication and the fact that his colonscopy hadn't been scheduled. So we decided to go into the city and whilst over chocolate at Theobroma Chocolate started discussing our plans for our stopover in Abu Dhabi.  + I went to the Alfred myself early the next morning for my final check up which included an X-ray, consultant and physio. I was told that I had no restrictions and
