    Got lots but really enjoying a book called
    The Complete Guide to the Statues and Sculptures of Dublin City
    by Neal Doherty.

    Its a gem of a book and great for flicking through it is a great book for someone who is curious and would be great for days out walking using the book as a trail guide around Dublin.

    Spent Christmas day with the inlaws.

    Made a big deal on Christmas morning telling all and sundry that I forgot my pyjamas, socks and washbag.

    Cue much smiles and laughter from my 8 year old when she gave me....yes, pyjamas, socks and a new washbag.

    And Mrs Boobar got me a Sonos Play 1...sweet!

    Personally think it's a very good book about a quarter of the way in. Not everyone's cup of tea for sure but he's a fascinating individual.

    It may be a good read but as an individual hes not a particularly good person. The latest furore surrounding the 15 year old turned my stomach and would be enough to turn me away from it

    You should listen to Ger Gilroys OTB interview a few weeks back.

    I heard it and was overly dramatised as seems the norm now with any hint of scandal. All charges were dropped and no further enquiries made or needed. That says it all. You can't get away with these things in 2016. Just look at Adam Johnson. Holding this against Cathal is pretty poor form imo. Should have he been looking into other women while with a GF, no he shouldn't but it's happening at a rampant rate everywhere.

    Slippers, Robe, Star Wars PJs, Perfume, Master Yoda mug, (Yes, I like Star Wars!) Sweets, Hair and Beauty voucher - and €300 in my bank account for the sales!

    The nice part about being a Mammy is that eventually your kids grow up and start giving presents to you, instead of the other way round.....:D:D

    Oh! And a food steamer from the future son-in-law who spent Christmas day with us, because his family aren't in this Country. Came in handy for freeing up an extra ring on the Cooker!

    edit: And the Latest Harry Potter book.

    Heres an interview which really cuts to the core of the type of person he is. I suggest you take a listen if you have time.

    My mam hasn't bought gifts for me for a few years now after we had a falling out... We're on better terms than before and I always make an effort to get her gifts but she's left all my presents to my dad, which can be a bit more hit and miss :)

    Ah well, my boyfriend and his family spoiled me so I don't mind! :P
