    I was there! It didn't look great unlit but the lights look great on it. The market is a massive improvement on any of the previous attempts. There are some lovely looking food places and some nice crafts and gifts. The Apres Ski bar (is that what it's called?) looks massively uncomfortable. The cushions are too big for for the stools and I saw one girl nearly falling off because her cushion was sliding. (You can see In through the glass, I wasn't in there.) You can get mulled wine and cider and prosecco and stuf like that from a few of the market stands so there's no need to pay into the bar.

    I'm not sure if anyone has posted this already or not - mods delete if someone already has - but the Lighthouse are showing lots of Christmas movies over the next couple of weeks.

    Has anyone else been to the christmas Bazaar at smithfield. What were your impressions?
    Some really interesting stalls, less than were actually Christmas orientated. But as far as originality and choice, it had much more going for it than the commercial abomination we had on Stephens Green, last year calling itself a Christmas market. Got myself a wax melt and a nice burner. Would have spent more time looking at more of the retro stuff, but she wasn't interested in that stuff. :(

    We were going to go to Farmleigh today but the market is cancelled. Sucks for all the small producers that the weather has been so bad. Hopefully it will be on tomorrow.
