Dublin Marathon

I've noticed lots of enthusiastic runners around Dublin city and suburbs over the past few months, no doubt a large share of them are in training for the Dublin city marathon which takes place on Monday, 31st October 2012.

My three brothers are taking part this year. One is flying in from Chicago, one from London and my little brother is coming up from West Cork to take part. The rest of the family have been summoned to Dublin to cheer them on! The competition between them is beginning to intensify but with a few injuries being mentioned it's hard to know which brother will 'win'.

There is a great atmosphere around Dublin every year for the marathon. All the Dublin hotels are busy and most including Temple Bar Hotel serve up a healthy, carbohydrate rich breakfast on the morning.

Best of luck to my three brothers and to all those taking part in the marathon this year.

Dublin Gospel Choir

As strange as it may sound, St. Mary's Church of Angels was the place to be last Saturday night! One might think a church would be the last place you'd want to spend your Saturday night but between the disco lights, the smoke effects and the dancing crowd, some might say it would beat Dublin's club scene any day!

Dublin Gospel Choir (or DGC as they like to call themselves) belted out an array of tunes that carried on for over two and a half hours last Saturday night in aid of a fundraiser for the church's local charity. Tickets were only €10 for a student/with a concession and €15 for adults. 'Aint't no Mountain High Enough', 'Oh Happy Days' and 'Lifted' were among the many songs that graced the stage that night as part of their set list. The choir were bursting with energy throughout the whole night, encouraging the crowd to get up, dance and sing along to the songs.

The show was finished at a reasonable hour-10.30pm- so a trip over to Temple Bar to continue the nights festivities was the perfect way to follow on the night. A quick drink in Buskers Bar before heading to Alchemy nightclub was the ideal Saturday night adventure.

The MC for the night (who was a monk) was brilliant! He was funny and really got the crowd involved. He was delighted with the turn out and thanked us endlessly for our support. DGC have taken a break for the summer but usually sing in this church on the first and third Sunday of each month. They are definitely a must see, Click on the link here to go to their webpage.

Nice Italian Restaurant in Temple Bar

There are many Italian restaurants in Dublin city centre but if you're looking for one of the best then I would look no further than Toscana on Dame Street. It is approximately a ten minute stroll from Temple Bar Hotel. They do an excellent lunch value menu as well as a pre-theatre menu. I would strongly recommend the meatballs and the vegetarian lasagne is one of the best I've tasted, served with fabulous home-made chips! The service is friendly and most importantly Italian! Toscana really is a genuine Italian restaurant.

The New Theatre in Temple Bar

I never thought watching a play that only consisted of two people, in a theatre that was hidden within a bookshop would be so entertaining! Last Wednesday night, myself and my friend attended a play called Ergophobia in the New Theatre in Temple Bar, Dublin. It was a play that told the story of two men-one with the potential to lose,the other a loser with potential. The two actors were great and really held the audiences attention throughout the evening. It was an interesting play that was funny, heartfelt and definitely worth the €15 entry fee!

The theatre only has about 70 seats in total which created a very intimate setting. The play lasted for 90 minutes and there was a 15 minute break in the middle which allowed us to get a glass of wine/tea/coffee in the bookshop outside. I thought it was a great idea to build this theatre in conjunction with the bookshop as it combines two businesses together allowing one to enhance the other. The theatre is located on Essex Street which is just down past Temple Bar square. The play was over by 9.30pm so it's definitely a great way to either start an evening or finish it. A quick drink in Buskers Bar before or after is the perfect solution for a night out!
