Evening in the city

Not only did we not have Storm Ciarán, we actually had lovely weather for our two days in Cork city. Himself had a lateish appointment and I had books to deliver so we decided to stay overnight at The Dean - a special offer making it possible. All super funky with yet another mad wedding party going on downstairs but I think we got the oldies room for there were dangly red alarms and bars to cling onto all over the place, and the bathroom was enough to make anyone feel vertiginous!  There was also a record player (one LP - Craftwerk), a bath and shower arrangement that needed a PhD to work it, a teeny orange smeg fridge with a tempting array of expensive goodies- don't even open it ordered Himself - and a free condom. It was also right next to the station which was interesting but who knew waiting trains hummed quite to much. 
We dined out at a nearby tapas bar having seemingly gone through a door that should have been locked and settled ourselves into a reserved table.
