A fantastic day in Howth, celebrating the birthday of the great Phil Lynott. Fabulously talented musician played his music, and I even got my picture taken with The Queen of Ireland – Philomena Lynott.

We’ve arrived for the 2017 Bash in Dublin. Despite a frighteningly turbulent flight, we made it on one piece – phew!

The Northern Star Hotel is sumptuous and easily the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in!!

You said you loved me from the start,

and in your hands you’d hold my heart.

So I will write a hundred lines,

and I will write a hundred times;

I must not be too literal.

I must not be too literal.

I must not be too literal…

So when you say you love my hair –

adore the sparkle in my eye,

I have no reason to believe you lie.

So just for you,

what I will do,

I shall make a gift to you.

My lustrous hair I will cut,

and Subha like my eye will pluck,

and in a box with my beating heart,

tied with a ribbon and a bow,

to you, these symbols, I bestow.
