Happy belated 100th Bloomsday! Have some lemon soap.

Did anyone watch the premiere of Method and Red last night? Was it any good?

You've definitely walked down Grafton Street. It's pedestrianised, very busy, and has Stephen's Green at one end and Trinity at the other. Filled with buskers.

Temple Bar Square! God, that's a funny place. Yep, it has the buskers too. As well as the mad lefty ranters whom the bored teenage metalheads listen to while wondering when their drug dealer's gonna call.

Ah, that explains it. I fell in love with the Trinity library with a deep and painful love, and barely had enough attention left to see the Book of Kells, let alone mere streets. I'm glad I remembered the square right. And mad lefty ranters are the much-prized local color. Ahem, colour. :)

The library? How come you were allowed in? They're pretty good with security...

*does some internet research* I guess it was the Old Library? Anyway, I took a tour. It wasn't sneaky.

Wait, do you mean the Long Room? Part of the Book of Kells tour, and way better than the Book itself?

(if so, I can bring you in free again)

*does more Internet research with pictures* Yes, yes I do. And thank you tons, that would be wonderful! Of course, you want to be careful about letting me into that room. You might never get me out of it. I never really *got* why anyone would want to be buried in the floor of a cathedral before, but I did there.
