    Shop St is gone. They turned it into car park and sambos are banned I'm afraid.

    Too many people made sexist jokes regarding their preparation.

    Welcome home all the same, enjoy.

    Galway! This place is like a big motorway with malls so it'll be nice to amble down a street.

    Home?

    Home is London these days. Haven't been back to Dublin in nearly 2 years and haven't been back for xmas in sometime.

    I wish everyone who's making the journey a fab time, of course. Maybe next year :)

    Nope, only get Christmas day off :( Will be pretty depressing, I absolutely love Christmas and its pretty much non-existent here.

    I'll make up for it in January though, going to Hong Kong and Thailand :)
