Brights Lights & The Big City

YAY, we went into Cork today for a bit of a look around and (don't tell your man) shopping and it was such fun - good to get out of school for a while and to hit civilisation for a few hours, so fab. I got a few more winter goodies because I've been cold for days so a few more pairs of tights and leggings (have to layer under the jeans now), a gorgeous scarf and a warm coat and with any luck, having bought the winter warmers the Indian summer will continue for a bit longer. It was a beautiful day so my sneaky plan seems to be working.

Rosie, Charlotte, Claire and I went into Midleton last night for dinner, to a restaurant called Sage which was brilliant - the food was fantastic, so going there again. You know your life is sad and cooking-obsessed when you take pictures of everyone's meals before you'll let them go at it with a knife and fork..................


I think I ate too much, just for a change, but at least it helped balance out all the wine - we headed to The Blackbird pub in Ballybotton after dinner, the better half of Ballymaloe was there, it was Rachel's birthday, one of the students and the pub was jam packed, live music and a whole lot more wine and I got home at 03h00 - despite a large glass of water and two headache pills, I have a distinct feeling that Sunday morning is going to suck in a big way!

  1. Did you find and visit the BIG Zara you saw during the school outing ?????? If you were overweight (referring to the luggage) on the way over, what is going to happen on your return.. Better tell 'your man' to pack light so he can share the load....
