Köln Christmas Markets were great! I really like the city, I’ve been 3 times, and always enjoyed it. #Köln #Germany 🇩🇪🎄

If planning to visit the markets, watch out for the Church holiday, Totensonntag - Sunday of the Dead. Busy and retail & restaurants close early or open later. But no major issues.

Check out the flavour… 🤣 I’ll let you know what it’s like! 😆

It’s rare for me to be in #Clontarf these days, the odd appointment once or twice a year… but I always make time for a stroll along the promenade and a coffee from Kennedy’s.

Oh and the podcast Empire should be number one, such an excellent series. Can’t recommend it enough. Search #EmpirePodUK on your podcast apps.

I was in Smyths a few weekends and discovered Folens still publish Siamsa… #Siamsa

Flashback to national school the few weeks before Christmas and you’d be waiting for the teacher to announce the delivery! Some kids had Beano and Dandy annuals, I loved the ould Siamsa.
