    Sure the rain doesn't help today but yesterday I was in town and the town was quiet and the galleries were empty. Is the festival a flop and missed the sell by date or, is it a success?

    There's definitely much more people around town, there's a lot going on and it's well spread out which may account for the empty galleries. I saw a big queue of people outside the design centre last night. I have zero interest in it but surely it wouldn't be good to do away with anything that brings people to Kilkenny.

    Town seemed fairly packed today. I also made the mistake of driving up high street thinking "it'll be grand". :(
