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!

I adored "Brooklyn"
Amy and I have been excitedly waiting for Brooklyn to be screened in Ireland. We loved the book and when we saw it was being made in to a film we made plans months ago to go see it together.
It came out last weekend but we went to see it this Friday along with Alice & Katie.
What can I say! It was brilliant......quite possibly better than the book. Saoirse Ronan as the lead character of Eilis Lacey is quite phenomenal (I reckon she will definitely be a contender for an Oscar). It's an Irish-American story set in 1952 and I think it will resonate with many, if you get a chance do go and see it!
I had a lovely evening but then switched on the TV when I came home and saw the horrific news of the terrorist attacks happening in Paris. My thoughts are with the people of France today.
