Osprey Hotel Naas

... full of sand by the time he left. Charles joined us for dinner which was nice since he hasn't been around much. I'm so used to just having Vivienne and William around that I almost forget I have another host sibling. There was some chemical spill somewhere and William got called in for overtime to help with it. Sometime before Doris and I leave, we're going to get the neighbor to take a big family photo.

... said that it went well and he felt good about it. Apparently it was only a quick 10-15minute short listing interview though. He was told that if he was successful to get to the next round of interviews he would be called and would have to come in the following Wednesday. That is today and so far he has heard nothing. It is a shame really, would have been a good job to get for the next 5 months or so. But hey-ho, not to worry, he has work now so we're happy. Roisin got us tickets ...

... while the girls went back to the hostel. We met more Australian's in the pub, ones that had just come back from a Shamrocker tour. We also met our tour guide Kevin, who would be accompanying us on Wednesday, when we start our tour of southern Ireland. There was a bit of a buzz throughout Dublin, as everyone knew the next day would be St Patrick's Day, and everyone was looking forward to it. I myself, was not all that sure of what to expect. I had seen in the paper that there was a ...

... terminal, but it didn't take too long. Had a full English breakfast at the bar; tried to do some duty free shopping (but failed), then went out to the gate. They were already boarding but it really didn't matter as there was plenty of overhead bin space. I slept hard for several hours after takeoff, but then my stupid cough woke me up. We've had decent weather Greenland and much of Northern Canada and the Canadian ...

Prices in Ireland seemed so high and difficulty getting hostel made me decide to move on, Really would have liked to spend more time in Ireland but ... Took bus to Galway then... Finally spent night in small rooming house in Cork. Friday night lots of partying going on.

... awhile like Dancing Queen, the "I would walk 500 miles" song, and that's all I can remember right now. This morning we got up, packed, ate breakfast, and made our way to the airport. We all passed out for the first flight that took us back into London. In London you can only have one carry-on so Jackie put on almost every piece of clothing she brought so she would not have to check a bag. Seriously, so funny ...

... even at 10.30pm at night, Ada tried to get a cup of tea into us. Saturday was supposed to be spent in Portlaoise watching my old cricket team. It was nice weather too, but the opposition called off. So we went to Kilkenny instead, a very fast growing town full of cranes, traffic, tourists, Polish and an impressive Tudor mansion. Jo had visited it three times before, and I supposedly had too, but I couldn't remember one thing about it. In fact, I cannot remember ...

... I worked there until 6pm - no breaks, just standing by myself in an empty corridor the whole time! After that, I had 5 hours until I worked again at 11am, until 5am (the place thats a two hour walk) then back at the racetrack at 10am. I don't know why thay would give someone such a messed up schedule! Anyway, I quit after working those shifts. They still haven't paid me, but I'm looking into what my labour rights are. My 2nd job (well sorta), was a gig at this 5-star hotel as a ...
