    Over two days I drove 730kms before doing a tap of work. Overnights are in short supply due to cost and shortage of rooms. Great country. Going backwards. Trying to sleep.p

    Beautiful sunny day. Mild. Getting a load of stuff done. Including cleaning out the gutters. There was a waterfall from them the other night during the deluge.

    Not relishing the prospect of a deep plunge into town to get through Christmas shopping tomorrow.

    Another Christmas present shopping soldier here. I got it all done in a morning trip to one town and an afternoon trip to another. I figured out what I was going to buy, where I was going to buy it in advance and got in and out as quickly as I could.

    I'll wrap them later and then all I have is a grocery shop left to do. This Christmas lark is a lot of work. 🤯🤯

    Going for a curry, pints, and then going to see The Blades, which is a great Irish band from the 80s. Happy Christmas to me. 😁😁😁

    Wondering if An Post will be delivering tomorrow or not 🧐

    i think they usually go for the full 7 days running up to Christmas but god knows these days 🤣

    for the first time I’ve done the majority of my Christmas gift shopping online & it’s weird it’s handy but also feels like I’ve got nothing. Also can’t pretend I don’t miss the atmosphere when out and about shopping for things.

    If I can find the time I may go out for a bit just to get involved in the excitement 🤣

    Honestly I had one of the best nights in a long long while with a great friend.

    Was just effortless.

    The best curry ever in Kerala kitchen on Baggot street.

    2 excellent pints of Guinness in Smyth's pub. Not far from them.

    Bus to O'Connell Street

    Swan down to the Academy on Abbey street.

    Straight in. A pint of Coors. In front of the stage. Then the absolute best renditions of the best Irish/any where singles ever.

    Ghost of a chance

    Downmarket

    Revelations of Heartbreak.

    With a kick ass brass section that just wants to make you shout with joy.

    And a ton more excellent songs from Paul Cleary and The Blades.

    Then Swan out of there into another pub for 2 more Coors.

    Beautiful mild December night and Dublin looking excellent.

    On the empty night bus home.

    Honestly, the best Christmas night ever..

    ❤️❤️❤️

    Yeah, I love it when your expectations are average and they are absolutely blown out of the water.

    I never heard Revelations of Heartbreak until yesterday, and it's probably one of my favourite songs now. Was cramming for the concert on Spotify ... It's great for concert prep 🤣🤣🤣And I loved that song after hearing it. And them BOOM 1,000,000 better live.

    I have not gone to any concerts for years and I have honestly seen the best concerts ever this year. It's been a fantastic year for me for live music. It really it so life affirming.
