|
|
Last weekend I was in Ireland.
I wonder if anyone can guess the city, I guess only Martina or Marcus might know it so I took pics of their interests I hope :-)
What city or part of Ireland do you guess ?
There is Nightlife:
There is no Mc Donalds but this one comes close:
There are Internet-cafés:
If you wonder why the girl is outside ..she probably smokes :o
A famous church:
They have their own statue of LIBERTY:
A computershop:
The Butlerhouse, part of their famous castle !
A legendary shop:
A river
..and a library :wink:
And above all (for Martina!)
FISH & CHIPS:
Have a shot ..where is this ?
When I travelled back I was able to get my hands on the Irish Sun.
I instantly went to page 3, and look what saw eh read :oops:
Denise van Outen pulls fellas in the US by saying TOMATO. She is working in LA, where men think her Essex twang is posh. Denise, 32, said: "They say 'You're so British - say tomato'. I keep ordering tomatoes on dates and they fall at my feet . It's my tip for getting an America fella!"
May be a tip for Martina, just in case :wink:
Maybe you should say tomatoe on ur next show, I think you did that already :wink:

Sorry Martina & Marcus:

I had put them on google first which is ok for albums but not for individual pics:

This was the most famous player involved:
It is Michael Adams, currently number 9 of the world.
He is English and married to an Irish woman, the reason he played thistournament
