Meeting up with friends

There’s something about the friends you go through college (and school) with.  Those friendships seem to stick around, and it doesn’t really matter how often you see them, or how long the times between, for some friends it’s just straight back to where you were and you can just chat about whatever.  It’s the one of the main downsides of living so far away from where you grew up – not being able to see some of these friends more often.  Hey ho, makes it all the more fun when you are back :)

Anyway, had a nice brunch with Myra at Kilruddery which was a frankly awesome little spot I’d never visited before.  I would totally get a pass if I was living in Dublin (well, South Dublin anyway).  Really nice place to just be in.

Then in the afternoon, I walked to Dun Laoghaire along the metals with Lorcan. Really nice walk, brought us through Dalkey quarry which was where I first learned to climb outdoors many many moons ago. Pretty cool having a crag like only ~30 mins from the city centre.

It was a great day for a walk, not too hot, not too cold. Lorcan was showing me how many petawatts of power he was getting from his solar panels, good times. And of course, an obligatory 99 (soft vanilla ice-cream with a flake) at Teddys once we got to Dun Laoghaire.
