Dublin - ace in a cold kind of way

So I'm doing the holiday thing, typing furiously to take advantage of the eight minutes I have remaining in the internet cafe. Should be making a video blog later this week, which has got to be good for a giggle.

Am most narked at lack of wireless stuff going on here. If you look at the map of nodes (which I'd link to but it would mean wasting a couple of precious minutes) then Dublin is littered with open access points. Try taking a laptop round with you and getting internet access and it soon becomes clear that the map is lying.

On the plus side, this means that rather than spending all day online, I'm actually out in daylight, shopping, eating and drinking. OK, mostly drinking. But hell, I'm on holiday. Have seen more daylight in the last 48 hours than I have in the previous month.

On another note, am very proud of myself. I don't like flying normally but two days ago, I actually managed to look out of the window at the clouds when I was in the plane. I wasn't scared. It was like the Neverending Story, flying on a Luck Dragon.

Or maybe I'm just a big kid.
