re: umbrella

Hey

Anyone recommend where I can get a half decent umbrella in town? Preferably up near stephen's green end of town. I just want something small that won't break after 4 days.. and blow off the handle.. like mine did tonight.. onto a taxi.. which was parked so it wasn't that bad

cheers!

There's a luggage type shop on the 1st floor of the St Stephen's Green centre which sells them (on the right hand side if you're at main entrance).

I ordered this just the other day, spent actually far too long researching umbrellas of all things :rolleyes:

Anyway, this is one here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00133F1LG/ref=s9_sima_gw_s1_p200_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-1&pf_rd_r=1671PBXC42PRY11R744P&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=467198433&pf_rd_i=468294 came out on top from what I read. The only bad point from the reviews is that it could be a bit better built, but in terms of resisting high winds, it's all good reviews.

Ya can often be lucky in TK Max (St Stephen's Green S.C) if they have not already been snapped up!

There is a business shirt/suit shop called T.M Lewin on South Anne Street (just off Grafton Street) that sells very good umbrellas. Not cheap but worth it, bought one there myself and can't go wrong.
