Commentary

(Summary blog only.   Last full blog was Day 0368).

Val was at work so I went into Dublin to do some shopping.

Had lunch in the EPIC centre then walked over to South Great George’s St to get some breadmaking flour from Dunnes and some Tek-Wash re-proofer from Great Outdoors.   Returned via Jervis Centre on the north bank, and dropped into Marks and Spencers.

Quite an enjoyably relaxing day out, actually

Temple Bar.   Amazing contrast to this time last year.   Ten times as many people!
