Robin's 50th Birthday Mystery Trip

Manchester airport. 7.00am. Do we know where we are going yet?

L to R: Bill, Melvyn, Sam, Vicci, The Birthday Boy & Jen

 

It's Dublin!

Which seems to be going down Just OK

Except with Bill.

 

First place to go?    Duh?

 

The Brewery Chapel:

 

The old brewery building:

 

Vicci starting the ninteen hundred and ninty eighth brew of the year. Is she going to feck it up?

 

Marvellous 1940 Gilroy. For me the artistic high spot of the trip:

 

Followed by a complementary(ish) pint in an astonishing bar overlooking the city. Lots of winter sun.

 

 

Later at Gogarty's. Vicci + Siãn Travolta

.

 

The man with a band

 

I do like bad signage (flickr tag):

 

The leaving of Dublin. A very expensive city. Well it is if you choose to stay right in the middle!

Many thanks to Vicci & Robin for organising so much fun. Well cool.

And it is true. Guinness is better in Dublin.
