Luck of the Irish

Finally a trip to the mother land, still not as far west as Galway, that will have to come later in Life. Dublin is a lovely little city made even better by the outward friendliness and understated optimism of the Irish. They like a drink too... with accommodation right on Temple Bar, Dublin's infamous bar area, the level of drunkenness was quiet astounding for how early in the evening it was, even for a Friday, no rowdiness, just a lot of staggering and singing. On route and on time to rendezvous with Andy F and meet his lovely French girlfriend at THE Temple Bar. Saturday was a self guided walking tour, Tea with my new friends Tammy and Lindsey, Football with Fez (Hull City v Liverpool 1-3, Man U v Tottenham 5-2) and - of course- NOFX!!!! This was a fantastic gig, hard to believe they just get better- added bonus, they played 'The Decline' in it's 18min entirety!
