One of the St Patrick's Festival highlights definitely has to be the fun fair that rolls into Merrion Sq. Kel, Ethan and I headed along on Sunday for the Big Day Out ā basically an excuse to eat Nutella and banana crepes for lunch, watch funny caricaturists, see the

The annual Irish Blog Awards are on this evening, and I am delighted to report that this wee blog is one of the five finalists in the Best Photo Blog category, sponsored by Pix.ie. I can honestly say that no one is more surprised than me to have made

What do you get when you combine my job and my hobby? Lots of bokeh from the Justin Bieber gig of course. I was lucky enough to get to go see Justin Bieber perform in The O2 last night (and even got to meet the coolest ten-year old in the

So here's what I was meant to do yesterday: Wrap up warm, drink lots of tea with Manuka honey, apply lots of Vick's, wrap presents, and watch The Muppet Christmas Carol, all in an attempt to fight off this chest infection. But here's what
Dublin
If you're around Dublin over the next few days, defo pop in to the Docklands Christmas Market, if only to soak up the festive buzz. Oh and the coconut macaroons, definitely have some of those too. Here's a lil' montage from Saturday's visit.
