If you're not at St James's gate, you're an imposter.

^Agh, it's the creature from the Black Swamp! (The driver, I mean!)

A couple of quick phone snaps - one of the wall outside the Guinness Storehouse, and another from the top floor bar for Morrigu, which has a 360 degree view of Dublin:

^ thank you Very Happy

Now have you discovered how much better Guinness tastes in Eire - it does - it just loses that little bit when it travels!!

First thing I do when I arrive - ah Guinness lovely❤️

I love that bar ! I've only been to Dublin once, about five years ago, but the Guinness factory and the panoramic bar was one of the highlights. They also had an excellent restaurant. A good Irish stew and a pint of guinness is hard to beat. And yes, it does taste better there. I dunno why, it just does.

You probably know this, but if you are still there, make sure you go to Trinity College and Kilmainham Jail.

^ yes definitely!! The Book Of Kells is truly worth seeing - I go every time I'm home - and Kilmainham gaol is haunting and an absolute must especially for anyone with even a tad of Irish blood!

PTID if you are bored one day wander down O'Connell Street and tell me if the Happy Ring House is still there - and better still take a photo for me Very Happy

And see if they are still running the traditional music pub crawl tour - it was brilliant - you just wander from pub to pub with a couple of local musicians - they play with mates found in the pubs you go to - you sing, clap and drink along - great craic!!!

And take a bus and go to Bray -it was becoming more commercialised last time I was there - but it's on the water and it is a wanderer's delight - fish and chips in paper on the beach - well rocks - but hey even Dubrovnik had a rocky beach!!
