Happy blogging indeed, WordPress.  This is my first venture into the online world – always a spectator, never a participant.  Until today.  This site is mostly intended for me, as my own personal space to record the things and moments that matter to me, and to allow me to share them with those who may be interested.  I’m also planning on using it as a bit of a travel blog, a way to share my experiences abroad with friends and family.

About my domain name….

If you know me in any way, you’re probably aware of my obsession with Ireland, and with Dublin in particular.  Facebook friends will be painfully aware of this (thank you for not unfriending me after the 1000th Dublin photo post).  My domain name pretty much captures my preoccupation with all things Dublin.

Welcome to my blog…..slainte!
