I’ve got internet!

…and a new house, but since I’ve been almost totally offline for 2 weeks, the getting of internet seems more important than the new house at the moment – totally sad?? It’s been a tough couple of weeks, lugging boxes around, packing, unpacking, putting together all the furniture (was there anything we bought that wasn’t flatpack?!?), [...]


More about Blurb

I’ve written about Blurb.com in the past as one of my favourite sites. In their own words, Blurb is: a company and a community that believes passionately in the joy of books – reading them, making them, sharing them, and selling them. So we put our minds together, and developed a creative publishing service simple and [...]


Our Honeymoon, Part 1

This is the story of our honeymoon; a long story, so I will break it into several parts. When planning the European road trip for our honeymoon there were three specific events that we wished to attend, firstly we had booked a madcap lap of the Nordschliefe circuit at the Nurburgring in Germany. From there [...]


Oh God, I’ve been meaning and promising to post this for ages, and now that the wedding is out of the way I no longer have an excuse! Our wedding was originally planned for 120 people, but as a lot of them were from overseas we ended up with 85 at the ceremony and meal. [...]

Maybelline Superstay Lipcolor Stays in place for 16 hours On my regular trips to the US, I’m always asked to pick up tons of Maybelline [...]


The perfect wedding?

I’ve had various drafts of this post floating around my head for a while, but I was pushed into action this week by a post by Flirtysomething (which has since been removed) – she linked to an article in the Sindo and asked if it was similar to one of her blog posts. Well, [...]


Jetlag, Blog Awards and Updates…

As I’ve said in a few other posts, I was attending meetings in the Phoenix area of Arizona last week. Although we were in solid meetings all day from 8am – 5pm (and sometimes later), I was still able to get out and about seeing old friends and shopping. I have a huge amount of thoughts [...]


After spending a week driving around the Phoenix metropolitan area, had you asked me several days ago, I would have said that ‘Google is my best friend!’. Now, I’m not so sure… When you’re in America, Google really is all powerful. For example, I searched for the name of a restaurant that I went [...]


No wonder we swear so much in this country…

Alternatively, this could also be titled: The difference between good customer service and bad… Today the Hubbie and I decided to pop out to the hotel where we are having our wedding for a spot of lunch and to see if the wedding coordinator was available. When we arrived we asked for Claire, the wedding [...]


Yeah right!

So Minister for Transport Martin Cullen stated today that he plans to reduce the wait for driving tests in Ireland to 8 weeks by this time next year. Yeah right! Even if he does give the Road Safety Authority €10 million to help clear the backlog there’s no way they’re going to manage it – unless they [...]


Links for fun…

For one of those days when i can’t be bothered to write a proper post… Julian Beevers amazing 3D chalk pavement art – I’ve been mailed a lot of his images over the years, but this is the full gallery – I’d love to see some of this in real life… The concept of cosmic ordering – [...]


Chocoholic’s heaven….

Chocolate, Chocolate everywhere, way too much to eat! Trying in vain to decide on what type of wedding cake I want…. too much choice out there! All I know is that I don’t want a traditional fruit cake, it’s really not my cup of tea! Take a look at these and let me know what [...]


After RTE…

The interview went really well on Saturday, even if Susan didn’t let me talk as much as much as I wanted to! Everyone that listed in has been really positive and said that i got my points over really well, so I’m please with that – even if Ciaran says that Pat Kenny is [...]


Hair & RTE…

I got my haircut today, and it’s short! It hasn’t been this short in about 7 years…. I was just sick of the way it was hanging down, straight and long and I couldn’t do anything with it at all… so with the wedding next year and after sorting through a bunch of [...]


Updates…

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 [...]


Busy, Busy, Busy…

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 [...]
