Nothing else to do but drink in Kilkenny

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 | By demilo | Views [529]

I am sitting in Kilkenny in a pub called ‘The Playwright’ about to have a “Playwright Burger” and a pint of Bulmers. I’m doing a bus tour at the moment – something I never thought I’d do but it came free with the hostel. Bad news – it doesn’t look ... Read more >

In Dublin about to see my second production of Macbeth this year. It’s playing at the Abbey Theatre which is very, very close to where I’m staying – Paddy’s Palace. This hostel has been, so far … okay. The first night I was here, one of the guys in ... Read more >

A farmer's work is never done

Wed, 24 Mar 2010 | By demilo | Views [461]

Yesterday and today was spent piling wood for winter use (ie in fires) - something I've never had to think about ... ever. My back is sore, my arms are sore but I'm in considerably good spirits. I guess that's what fresh air and manual labour give you ... Read more >
