Epic Weekend

Myself and Emily had a great weekend full of fun and merriment. It all started on Saturday when Emily arrived and out came the swingball. It was really windy around dublin but thankfully my garden is pretty sheltered so we were able to play through it (note all-important beer on path). The garden is just wide enough for swingballing, but there are briars growing out of our hedge and the washing line is getting a bit loose so occasionally there are sideline obstacles to deal with.


After playing till our arms hurt too much, we took a leisurely cycle to Fresh, the overpriced yuppie supermarket on Pierce Street, and found a fabulous bargain on Druids cider. Rather a nice drink, it gets the MagsEmily seal of approval. Suffice to say, after imbibing much of this thrifty booze a lack of judgement occured, and the swingball got moved indoors so the darkness of nighttime wouldn't hinder playing.



As you can see the playing area indoors was rather cramped. Also the base is filled with water which was splashing everywhere. After a healthy amount of damage was caused, another error in judgement was made and we decided that writing on our faces was in fact the best idea ever, even better than indoor swingball.


Inspirational stuff. Also, somewhere in the course of the day myself and Emily's combined powers produced the finest Shepherds Pie in Ireland. All ofthis goes to proove that it's impossible to have a quiet weekend in when Emily is in the county.
