went to the seaside today, water was surprisingly warm, also got burnt, anyway on our way passed a different tescos, spotted prof z, hh mcq and of course ggg, on way back checked smyths, home bargains and sainsburys, not a lot there but a load of leland twin packs in home bargains which is always nice to see
also planes have landed in asda and smyths both 6.99 a go
what else did you do in cork then?
did you kiss the blarney stone?
I didn't go to Blarney Castle. I hope to go sometime in the future as castles, historic houses etc, interest me.
I did manage to visit St. Annes Church (Shandon), Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Anne and Cork City Gaol.
The main reason for the short trip (out early Sunday morning, back Monday afternoon) was to see Cork City 2-6 West Ham United in a (Pre-season) Friendly match at Turner's Cross. I have been to Cork before, back in 2004, when I saw matches at both Cobh Ramblers and Cork City.
It was really nice to go back. The ground has been fully redeveloped since I last went there. Like much of Ireland, there have been many developments carried out as part of the National Development Plan 2000-2006 and it's successor. I first went to Ireland in 2003 and it's been transformed in many respects.
I've been to the North a couple of times too, also for football (Lisburn Distillery and Coleraine). I have also been to Derry City too. That wasn't planned. I'd like to go back some day. Sadly, there isn't a Londonderry/Derry-based team in the Northern Irish Premiership at the moment, but I'd still like to come back some day!
I also love trains. I haven't ridden any of the line north of Sydenham!
Did you get Snotters, Nigel? Very jealous if so. Flames opaque or translucent]
Thanks to MrB's info, I nabbed Brent and Maurice. But JCG was also missing, hmmm.
The "possible divert to DS" theory turned up trumps!
Oh... There was Wingo there, but I forgot to check for flames...
hopefully, though, that doesn't mean these cases are exclusive to disney store as with the nearest one to me in cribbs causeway the chances of catching any decent stock is pretty slim
and not up in london again until the end of august so unlikely anything left by then
am off to edinburgh next week but not sure if there is one up there

I don't think they're exclusive, more likely they've been diverted there as the usual supermarket suspects have choked on a huge pile of old overstock.
As for DS, there is one in Edinburgh. Or should be at least there was when I was there last year. But as you know mate, 2 or 3 DS's in our area closed earlier this year, so not sure if Edinburgh survived the cull.
