    Dublin

    I was over a few weeks ago and rocked a hibs shirt for a day and a few people recognised the shirt/club. One thing I went to see was Shamrock Rovers ground, didn't see Pat mind you!


    At Easter Road we play...

    Think i'm getting to old to be walking around on Holiday, with my wife, wearing a Hibs top, but I do have a cheeky wee black Nike Number with Hibs Badge on it.

    I'd recommend a trip to Croke Park and the museum..jamieson distillery tour at Smithfield really good..cobblestone in Smithfield for a great pub with best trad in town..Dinnae bother with temple bar, it's crap..have a walk along the canal and turn at portobello..nice bars and restruants going down there to Camden st to Georges st..long haul bar, library bar for something different...Phoenix park is worth a stroll and kilmainham jail well worth a trip

    Plenty of great stuff on on Sunday as its a bank holiday....us girls playing at whelans...pitty I'm there but running the marathon Monday so best behaviour required

    Croke Park was good and so was the Aviva Stadium. The gpo building in oconnell Streets worth a look. Kilmainham jail was good as well. Bus tour is also worthwhile.

    Avoid the Temple Bar area if you're going out for a drink - plenty of other great pubs in the city that WON'T rip you off for succumbing to a tourist trap.

    Scots or Irish Gaelic? My mother was from Syke but unfortunately I only know a few words...

    Oops thought I'd replied...Yeah Cobblestone is a hidden gem..Tourists there but its a proper session pub rather than done for tourists...Some amazing musicians and a nice buzz about the place..Whe I first moved to Dublin knew no one and lived in the square, was practically my living room ;-)

    Can't see my post but if it's been removed I'd still strongly recommend a trip to Kilmainham Jail. It's important to some of us! And you'll find it interesting.
