Life on the Avenue

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!

Yard Sales

Every Friday, in The Citizen, a map and listings of all of the yard sales that are taking place on the island, is published.

Yard sales are not commonly held in Ireland so we like to cycle around and have a looksee at what is being sold. Most stuff on offer is pure rubbish but I did buy my bike at a yard sale 2 years ago. It was only 15 dollars and I got a new chain and the brakes fixed for 80 bucks in a bike shop - it's a great bike!
