Temple bar area was good, for the first two hours, then the next 2 days were a bit of a blurr.

I remember an open top bus ride, a joke about the fella who invented crosswords, walking around a Guinness factory, and a girl with a tattoo on her t1t.

I really enjoyed it.

Talking

tour of Guinness is a must - you can't really go wrong in Dublin, wander about for 10 minutes and you will find something to do or see.
Guinness is stronger down there as well. You will be bolloxed after about 5 pints

Caution: stay away from anywhere that starts with Bally (Ballymun, Ballyfermet etc etc) If you do stray into these area don't drive below 80 MPH or your car will be on bricks in a flash

Oh yeah - wear green felt trousers so you fit in with the locals

Fast bloke.... has hit the nail on the head!!

As far as things to do the Guiness trip is about it.... the famous saying is:

''Theres f*ck all to see and do in Dublin... but you wont care cos you'll be sh*t faced''

How appropriate that statement is........

Not somewhere you'd go back to in a hurry............. unless you come from there of course - people are about the warmest and friendliest on the planet
