This is a photograph taken looking to the west of Saint Stephens Green towards the Dublin Unitarian Church. This 19th century church is undergoing a massive 1.5 million euro restoration at the moment, due to pollution etc from modern day life. It really does stand out when you look at the other buildings surrounding it.

I have to say this is the life, bring the baby for a walk around Saint Stephens Green, find a sheltered spot, let baby observe and have a read of a book.

Firstly may I thank everyone who wished me well as I got another year older yesterday, apologies for not putting an image up but I went to see “A stuff of Myth” in the Andrews Lane Theatre last night and if you have time over the next week and a half I would highly recommend getting in to see it. After that a few beers were had with some of the cast.

Donncha and Chromasia both had their new arrivals last week, congrats again guys, but now its my turn to steal some thunder, welcome to our latest arrival a beautiful Skoda Octavia a essential addition to the Williams Household since Rebecca came along since she requires a lot of boot space for her wardrobe, bed and vehicle for getting around (the buggy).

Across the road from yesterdays photograph is the National Concert Hall (NCH) where we decided to go to the side of the building towards Harcourt Street. This photograph was taken along this stretch of road of the side of the NCH it would be the unattractive side to the public but to me it was well worth a shot.
