I have always felt that the Boston Marathon bombings were one of the worst terrorist attacks in the world. There was something that touched me about the attacks on such a group of brave people coming to the end of their marathon. In some ways they were at their strongest (what a feat to complete a marathon) but they were also at their weakest (the body can only get through so much and I think a marathon pushes a body to its limits). What a most cowardly attack to go after these vulnerable brilliant marathoners.
Because of this I was interested to watch Mark Wahlberg's new film "Patriots Day" which is about the Boston Marathon terrorist attack.
It is an incredible film. Very moving and it really gets to the heart of all the people involved.
I borrowed the dvd from the library and I highly recommend it.
Boston Strong!
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 will have to look for it at my library!
