Random observations from a Saturday night in Dublin...
1. I must have looked really tired - a group of (probably) drunk lads sat on a bench on the boardwalk wished me "safe home".
2. The Workman's Club is the only place in Ireland that I've seen a Wunder Bar soft drink dispenser. These seem to be standard issue in UK pubs and clubs.
3. There was a covers band in Fitzsimmons, blaring out some terrible tune. Whoever wrote the original should sue.
4. There was a group of pink rabbits on O'Connell Street bridge disguised as a stag/significant birthday party. They may have had myxomatosis.
5. I could get a milkshake in Burger King, but not at McDonald's. Therefore BK > McD.
6. DART trains still sound their warning horns at 11.30 at night. How did I block out/ignore this for over two years when living in Tara Street?
7. There were surprisingly few French rugby fans around. The most notable were sat outside a pub on Bachelor's Walk wearing pink, spangly cowboy hats.
Thanks to Phantom 105.2 for the tickets to the Rebekka Karijord gig. (Although being on the guest list consisted of a bloke writing my name down. In the event, the gig was fairly sparsely attended.)
