Decorating with Emerald Green and a bit of black...

Part one - Dublin...

Okay the title may be a bit misleading. There has been no decorating, and especially none in Emerald Green. The excuse this time....a trip to Ireland! Not only did that take us away from The Money Pit for a week (time continues to slip through our fingers - June? Already? Really?) , but also all that Guinness, the 'craic', not cooking for a week and having a menu of foods you could choose from willy nilly by using the phrase 'well, we are on holiday' and those hostelries took our money like the most charming pick pocket you could ever hope to meet. So no house progress but a really good holiday. A few things that caught my eye...

Trinity Capital hotel and its crazy chairs ....exhibit A


And exhibit B....

Local colour...even the graffiti is attractive

More colour...




A place to worship...at the altar of Guinness. A bar (or is it a Church?) where they combine the institutions of religion and drinking...

Oh and how can we forget that other institution Rugby or is it football of the Irish variety? Think I switched off around this point....

Twas only a flying visit as we stopped over on the way to a wedding in Omagh....so more excuses when I post about that!
