Post holiday blues

It never feels like it at the time but at the end of a holiday you always wonder where the time went and 7 weeks is a long time! We truly had a fabulous time in Ireland (and London). It's been great for Donncha to give an insight to where he grew up and also for me to introduce things from my younger years ~ Curly Wurleys, Calipos and Chipsticks just to name a few!



Still don't actually know how I managed but we packed everyting in. The Byrnes came down to say goodbye. We will miss Ruairi and Clodagh. A quick cup of tea at the airport with Grannie and Grandad *hugs* and we were off!

In London the kids were all excited to get to the hotel. We chose to stay out in Twickenham. Why sleep in a stadium? We were looking at hotels for ages and really did not fancy a cramped airport hotel room so we looked around the area and found this to be excellent value and we were not disappointed cos the rooms were really nice and getting out of the marshmallow at 4:30 the next morning was not easy.


And Twickenham high street itself was lovely with plenty of nice restaurants and we had a superb Indian ~ you just can't beat a British Indian!
