My Dublin trip

I spent last weekend in Dublin where my son was taking part in a rugby tour. Just wanted to say that Dublin is a great city, we had a really good time and the people are great. One thing puzzles me - why is everything 10 minutes away?

Saw a few RRS's but not too many. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Rupert - sorry I should have made contact. We stayed at the Westin Hotel, they have a really good bar in the basement. We ate at Rolys in Ballsbridge and also a Thai there. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

No worries VA, another time Thumbs Up

The Westin is a fine hotel alright, can't say I know Rolys in Ballsbridge though.

Oh yeah Elephant and Castle is a great restaurant.

It's been quite a while since I've been there, good to hear it's still up to scratch.
