Merry Christmas!
This blog was originally started to track our progress as we regenerated a derelict Victorian house in Dublin. We turned an old crumbling ruin in to our dream house! If you wish to read through the trials and tribulations of the house build it is best to start at the oldest blog post and read in date order. The blog then evolved in to being all about my life in Dublin, Ireland and then life in Malaga, Spain with artist "PIGSY" and now back in Dublin I hope you enjoy reading it!

Basket Brigade
Today my sister and I are involved with "Basket Brigade" which aims to make up 120 hampers for needy people. I collected items for the hampers from my colleagues in work and they were so generous.
The event is taking place in the Clarion hotel in Dublin City (they are probably letting us use the room for free or at a reduced cost).

Best eggs in Dublin!
We had breakfast in Fumbally Cafe this morning. I adore their eggs! The cafe itself can be a bit hit and miss in regards to service and it can be full of hipsters and posers from time to time - but the food really hits the spot!
Vampires need your blood! Irish Blood Bank
The Irish Blood Bank put out a call that they were short of blood. Ciaran and I were off work today so we called in to donate.
My iron levels weren't right so Ciaran had to donate on his own. I went to the refreshment lounge while he donated.
The blood bank is situated in the centre of Dublin City in the Lafayette Building. Check out the view of the Spire and O'Connell Street!
It's worth giving blood to check out this awesome view!!!

Open House
We had our Open House on Saturday. We were so happy with how it turned out. We got to meet a lot of our new neighbours and the ODKM Architects got to showcase our house to interested parties.
The contractor, kitchen designer and our lighting consultant also met with lots of perspective clients.
Have a look at the pictures of the event.
