So the beer page is finally done. It took a while to source all the Irish craft beers but it seems worth it now that I finally get to open and sample them. FYI the 2 best places to get some I found were Hollands of Bray and Redmonds in Ranelagh. SLÁINTE!
My giant/monster content page – DONE! Most of the research is done from reading long threads of boards.ie You can’t beat them! Its true to life, those are real people complaining, suggesting, arguing about advantages or disadvantages of different type of navigation in Dublin.

Irish people are obsessed with the weather and despite us not living in the Mediterranean we live in constant hope that the sun will shine, and are perpetually disappointed when it doesn’t.

Hooray! Quirky names page is 100% full. I came up with the idea and can’t believe it was so obvious! The thing is that we couldn’t possibly collect all the road signs/names of all those weird names all over Ireland. The task was then to integrate those names from Google maps. I didn’t want to […]

F for film – made by shooting fairy-lights without a flash. P for Pajama Girls – A nod to all the Dubliners who don’t get dressed before leaving their house. V is for Vices and our letter was inspired by this photo on Pinterest: I looked for an aesthetically pleasing V and these were […]

With generous amount of foundation, powder foundation, deep glow long-lasting tan (Brand are disclosed) In the process: Final result: Make up: Cliodhna […]
