Had a little party last night to celebrate my daughter Mórrígan. (Obviously wasn’t going to do a Christening)

Had a lovely spread of cheese and set up a little retro game corner.

Also displayed a signed Jim Fitzpatrick print of his artwork of The Mórrígan.

Was a fun night.

Don’t remember adding this to my watchlist but the directors name has me very excited. Also, pretty great feature from @letterboxd.social

Haha. Was sorting through some stuff and just found the swipe card to the toilets in the Central Hotel that I must have mistakenly walked away with at some point. Little historical artefact now.

Don’t know what I’m going to do with the Jim Gavin figurine…

Time to take down the Michael D Higgins figurine from the mantelpiece and put up the Catherine Connolly one…

Took the family to the circus this evening and have to say it was very good and well worth the money. Called Circus Vegas, currently at Clare Hall for the next few days.

I’m sorry. If you sell me a Mint Aero with no bubbles I’ll be taking you to court for emotional damages and my pay out will far exceed €10,000.

Got to hand it to the wind. It’s doing more to remove those stupid flags than the city council ever will.

Got to play Fate of the Fellowship at @boardgamesireland.com yesterday.

It’s got a Pandemic style foundation but it’s got so much stuff placed on top that you may not recognise the Pandemic game mechanics at work. Cool dice tower too.

Did an infant first aid class today. I was so good at CPR the dummy sprang to life. I named him Gregory. He escaped into the ducts. The instructor said that’s the first time he’s ever seen that happen.
