Dublin

On Friday night we caught up with Adam at Canary Wharf for a few drinks, there was a huge blue snowman there which looked pretty cool. We then headed back to his place for an early night and got up at 4.30 am for a trip to Stansted Airport.

After a few dramas involving losing Michelle in customs we made our flight. We arrived at our hotel to find out that we had booked into a mini Warsaw with over 90% of the people there being Polish, even the TV was in Polish. I guess thats what you get booking the cheapest Hostel in town. Adam managed to cause some trouble when he asked a group of Polish guys to stop smoking in the dinning room which was clearly labeled non-smoking, it didnt go down well and they just ignored him. The indian guy behind the counter was too scared to say anything to them and there is probably a good reason for that.

We then headed out to sample to local Guinness and managed to make it to at least 10 different pubs. Mel even managed to get rejected from Flanneries where we were supposed to meet up with my cousins Shined and Fiona. Apparently you are not allowed to laugh and have a good time when you are lining up for a pub in Dublin, thats a sign of drunkenness. What a joke! Anyway we just moved next door. It was great catching up with everyone and we had a few more drinks but it wasn't a late one since we had been up so early. We will hopefully be heading back in March for St Paddy's day so looking forward to that.
