This one will be last post on the holidays, I promise… So after our good fun at the Giant’s Causeway, we headed back to the Bushmills Whiskey Distillery for a tour. I’ve been there quite a few times at this point, so i could practically give the tour at this point! American Bourbon once [...]
So on Thurs we were up bright and early and as predicted, the weather was fantastic. We headed off with a list of things to try and see on the North Coast (everyone knows how i love my planned agendas!) but it can be tough to fit everything into one day. We detoured immediately on [...]
So I’ve been lazy and neglected my blogging during the holidays, but G & I have had a really good time on our week off, it’s hard to think that the alarm will be sounding at 6:30 in the morning and that I’ll be back at work tomorrow! We went and looked at an apartment in [...]
from the story of my holiday, anyway… I was ranting at G today about Mary Harney and he was sick of hearing me go on so he told me to “Blog It”, which now seems to be the house standard response to a rant you don’t want to hear! We were talking about the smoking ban over [...]
Third day of the holidays and my first blog from George’s PDA phone. It’s wierd typing on these teeny keys, feels almost like texting instead of typing… Today was a great day, we woke up late and started planning our week off. tomorrow we are going to look at an apartment in the morning and [...]
Yup, it’s finally time for that summer holiday that my body and brain have been screaming for during the past few months! G and I both have a week off work and boy do we need it. So today is the first day and I started by going for a nice massage to get me [...]
The title of that should really be “George has given up smoking“! To try and keep his mind off the cravings I suggested to him that he should try a blog whenever he felt the need. He did and he’s turned into a more prolific blogger than me!! Have a read and give him some support…
Time passes, stuff happens, I am lazy, but so what! So what has happened in the last couple of months? After the frenchies left, we had a mad dash down to Sligo for my cousin Aoife’s wedding to Damien. Great fun was had by all, I have to say that when the Molonys and the Ellards [...]
Anne and Thibaud were over with us for nearly two weeks at the start of July recently. I have to say that I was worried about having house guests for that long, but they proved to be excellent. They helped to keep the place tidy and did the dishes every morning. Anne [...]
So I got the hair done the other week, 5 inches chopped off the back and a full head meche of colour. I went to my local salon, but they’ve been running model days on Wednesday afternoons, so it was half-price!! Getting my hair done properly costs around €140 these days, so i [...]
Rumor had it she was a whore from Pahrump. But it didn’t matter to those who knew her: Everyone agreed Priscilla was the most beautiful. On June 24, 1957, the U.S. military touched off a 37-kiloton nuclear device over Frenchman Flat, a dry lake bed about 75 miles northwest of Las Vegas. The atmospheric test, code-named [...]
It’s been another week since I last posted, this is not going as well as I thought! Things have just really ramped up in the last week and I don’t think that it’s going to get much better throughout July. Quite a few things on over the next weeks, including the visit of Anne and [...]
So Sunday played host to one of the wierdest Grands Prix of my generation. After 3 days of wrangling over the Michelin tyres that weren’t able to take the pace (and two nasty accidents for Toyota), only 6 cars lined up on the grid for the start of the race. The crowd was [...]
So on Saturday I finally got my birthday pressie. This year there really wasn’t anything “physical” that I wanted, so I asked the hubbie to be for a pampering instead! Saturday was my beauty day, complete with manicure, pedicure, back massage, eyebrow tinting and lots more… and some more photos below to [...]
Where does the time fly to??? It seems like only yesterday that I went through the registration process for this blog, but here we are already 3 weeks later! Since then, what has happened? Well the biggest thing was my participation in the 2005 Flora Women’s Mini Marathon in Dublin. I went at this 10km walk (in [...]
My first blog, my first post…. It’s a little bit exciting and also a little bit nerve-wracking! I really only want this space to use as an online diary, somewhere to vent out my feelings (other than at my fiancé), maybe on a daily basis, maybe once a year if i get lazy! As usual, running [...]
