.ie: Returnus Airportus Maximus

11:30 All packed, another excellent breakfast, bill settled, off to Kilkenny Castle and grounds, and maybe some munch! 14:00 Bookshop, pub, Guinness! 15:45 “And it’s Anderson in the Marea, can he make it?!” </murraywalker> 17:30 We’re back at the airport. This is getting more familiar to me than Stansted, my most visited airport! The hire […]

.ie: Contains Sexual Scenes

A fantastic meal made all the more amusing by little faux pas here and there – well, only one to be honest. In the supermarket yesterday, Sabrina asked for help finding her ‘pie crust’ for the pumpkin pie dessert (although all she asked for was ‘pie crust’ without the pumpkin pie caveat). Now, in Scotland, […]

.ie: This Dell Didn't Have Far to Travel

Excellent breakfast in the B&B (not quite up to Ulster Fry standards, but pretty stomping nonetheless), then headed out to being sorting stuff out for the day. Joe and Sabrina were sorting out the food, Katherine and Clare were taking the kids to The Cage — some random indoor playpark for kids with bouncy stuff, […]

.ie: Pour Me a Guinness

Tynan’s. Drinkies. Abrakebabra. Hotel. Doner. Bed.

.ie: Saving Rented Marea

Kilkenny in the dark is not fun to navigate round, especially with two really dodgy looking maps! We were rescued by Katherine, Sabrina’s friend in Kilkenny who was putting up with us our contact, guide, assistant, fixer, and general sorter-out of stuff. She took us to meet her partner Joe, who was hosting the Thanksgiving […]

.ie: Santa or Rush Hour, Hmmm

Sabrina took Ellie up this random tower/chimney thing beside the hotel, which equally randomly had a Santa at the top. This meant the rest of us could sit back with some drinkies without a small girl running around us and asking for beer 🙂 Before heading off, we nipped into a next-door Spar, grabbed some […]

.ie: Airport Coffee is Expensive

It was time to go pick up Clare and her daughter Ellie from the airport. Somehow, I had the route there and back totally nailed, and Sabrina and I sat about in one of the airport bars drinking coffee and talking about random things appearing on Sky News. Clare is not a good flyer apparently, […]

.ie: It Begins ...

The meandering to Kilkenny had begun towards Prestwick Airport. A fraught drive down the A77 gave me about half an hour to spare to do those niggly little things like park the car, check in and board the plane – for my last travel through Prestwick, I arrived about two minutes after the gate closed, […]

Death of 2lmc Spool?

Erk. 2lmc spool has spontaneously died. Blub. Just need to track #evolt’s thespool instead. Schniff
