    Hi Guys,

    Had an exceptionally busy few weeks and only getting the chance to start decorating now.

    I'm on a limited (ie. tiny) budget, so I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on where to get some affordable fair lights. Thanks :)

    For shorter strings of lights, the Eurosaver shop on Stephen's Green, Dublin (and at least one other branch) has some basic lights at EUR 2 a set. I bought a battery-powered set of 15 and taped it round the window of our front door. Looks nice!
