I'm off to Bloom with the wife and three small kids, anyone else going or been there before? I'm mad into food, the wife is mad into plants and gardening and all that while the kids are into having fun, all in all i'm really looking forward to it, we're staying out in Liffey valley, how should we travel in bearing in mind the kids are from 5 down to 15 months?

Anyone doing anything exciting for the first big bank holiday weekend of the year.

I might cut the lawn.

If I'm in the form I might power wash the de king.
Anyone any good tips for cleaning the decking?

Might have a curry and a glass of vino with the wife Saturday night.

Anyone got any recipes for a good curry?

Really looking forward to the long weekend.

Really looking forward to it.

Maybe better off driving to the Luas park and ride at the Red Cow and get the Luas into Heuston would the best idea batter burger. You will enjoy Bloom it's a very pleasant way to spend a day especially if we get some decent weather. Heading to Galway myself on the beer and try to get in a bit of surfing in Sligo one of the days-looking forward to it big time I must say.

Be careful when powerwashing de King, Fintan. Some of them tend to fancy themselves a bit and dont take kindly to getting drenched.
And they have huge armies. ''Off with his head..''etc

Been a long time since the Queen was 50. She's in her eighties I think.

I told the wife I wouldn't drink tonight. We've got a big day tomorrow. And actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we're going to go to B&Q. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Heatons aswell, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.

Make sure its not Fintan's decking she's buried under.
Fintan plans a big clean-up job on that.

I decided I needed to go somewhere there would not be too much festivity for her maj, so plumped for North Wales, hoping to cross the Llangollen aquaduct in a barge, visit Chirk castle and have a pit stop at the frongoch memorial plaque and doff my cap to the men of 1916 who were interned in the camp known as the birthplace of Republic, i just hope the waether holds.
