Your Race, Your Pace
Run Rewards Ireland is a ‘virtual running club’ and brought to you by Keith and Stephen, two guys from Dublin and Sligo. They have a passion for running, the finishers medal, spreading the word about the joys of running and encouraging others to get active at a time and place that fits their lifestyle. Continue reading
So who doesn’t love a movie about a lovable dog who saves the day. We have had Lassie, Benji and the Littlest Hobo and loved them all. Now mans best friend has been given military training, a slightly edgy temperament and he is called Max. Continue reading
There is a very dull looking building on the corner of Tara Street and Poolbeg Street called Apollo House. I spent the last three years working there. It’s all bit dreary and dated and gloomy. The saving grace of having worked there, two things: Continue reading
I never knew, but the Abbey Theatre do a really interesting backstage tour. What’s even better is, it’s an absolute bargain at only €8 for about an hour of theatrical history. As part of a birthday treat a friend had organised for us to go on the tour. Continue reading
I wanted to like this. I wanted to laugh lots and I wanted to rave about it to other people and say things like ‘the funniest bit was when’; but I can’t say that. I didn’t like it, I didn’t laugh and I don’t really recommend it to anyone. Continue reading
The Cono Sur Blogger Competition 2015 CLOSES TUESDAY AUGUST 4th. Did I mention the grand prize of a trip for two to Chile. Still time to get your entry in.
You can find all the information on how to enter right here
Once the entries close on August 4th those who submitted will be in with a chance to win the grand prize. There are three rounds as follows:
Starting 11 August, 2015, consumers will be able to vote on their country´s favorite recipe — one vote per person. On 15 September, 2015, the top three recipes with the most votes from each country will be selected, and they will go on to Round Two as Semi-Finalists.
Renowned Chef Christopher Carpentier will prepare each Semi-Finalist´s dish and select one Finalist from each participating country. Winners will be announced and officially notified on 2 October, 2015.
Chris is currently a judge on Chile´s MasterChef and also participated in last year´s blogger competition
The five Finalists will be sent to Paris, France, all expenses paid (including a guest!), from 12-14 November, 2015 to participate in the Grand Finale. Each Finalist will prepare their dish for a panel of judges, including Cono Sur´s General Manager and Chief Winemaker, Adolfo Hurtado, Chef Christopher Carpentier and Chile´s Finalist. After what will surely be five savoury dishes, the panel will then choose the blogger with the best pairing, the Winner of a trip for two to Chile.
The folks over at the Waterside House Hotel recently ran the first of their outdoor movies series. I tagged along to their screening of Grease to see what it was all about. The setting I have to say on the terrace is simply marvellous. You are pretty much just feet away from the sand and the presence of the sea certainly does not go unnoticed. Continue reading
