My great pals the McEwans are not at all reserved, regardless of what the sign says! 😁🇮🇪🇺🇸

I’m absolutely delighted for my pals from Staten Island NY & Tim who are now engaged. We had the absolute best time in Dublin when we went for a few pints to see and we split the hell out of a few G’s! I even broke out the vintage New York Giants jacket for the night that was in it! Congratulations my friends! 🍾

On the river Liffey in Dublin you’ll see some of the early roots of Irish America. These amazing and powerful Rowan Gillespie sculptures of the desperate, starving and emaciated ordinary Irish people who were cruelly forced out of their own country before, during and after the great Hunger of 1845 - 1852 and the great silence of the following decades as the country was turned upside down and the industrialists and landed gentry of the British ascendancy stood on and watched as the land was cleared for lucrative cattle grazing and food exports continued unabated as a million people died of starvation and the diseases caused by malnutrition or stripped of their dignity in the workhouses.
The ‘lucky ones’ managed to beg or borrow their way onto often hastily converted cargo ships, now converted for human cargo and god knows if you will survive the voyage at all!
And on the same island although it may well have been another planet we had these vast Georgian mansions stuffed to the brim with priceless antiques brought home from Grand tours of Europe, some of these homes were well over 100 years old by the time the potato crop was hit by the blight in 1845. Many of them were burned to the ground during our war of independence and never a tear was shed about that by any true Irish person.
Always remember where it all began, we don’t have fancy tall towers, we don’t have gilded Piazza’s, we don’t have Eiffel towers or leaning towers, we don’t even have a subway but we are ordinary people, respectful, resilient, brave and proud people as proven in our history and we wouldn’t exchange that for anything!

I’m very sad to hear that my pal Patti from the Boston area has passed away. I was lucky enough to be a part of her ‘trip of a lifetime’ with her sister and best pal Janet last May and we had a blast travelling all around the west and south west of Ireland and back up to Wicklow on the way home. Patti was an incredible lover of animals and passionate about their wellbeing and one of the things Patti wanted to do was to Hold a baby sheep and as the picture shows, we did indeed manage that. It was at the house of Sean’s son Aodhán in Di**le (the man my guests last week spoke Irish with at the bar in Di**le).
Rest in peace Patti and thanks for all the laughs together in Ireland 🙏🏻🇮🇪

‘Twas a beautiful day yesterday with my Chicago pals. Dublin on a bright and sunny day is hard to beat! From Howth, to to Phoenix park and then and in
A day well spent!

Now that we are settling into 2024 and I am at the car wash in advance of collecting my US family for a Dublin tour at 9.30am, I’d just like to wish all my pals in the US the best for 2024 and thank you so much for supporting me continuously, many by regular return visits to Ireland and even more by referring family, friends and colleagues. It’s an honour for me that when someone says “I’m heading to Ireland”. . . you say “I know a guy!!!!! and I am that guy 😁

I’m looking forward to reconnecting with some of you all again in Ireland this year and I also look forward to the new friends that I’ll make.

Finally a big thanks to all the hard working and consistently professional and welcoming people that I deal with regularly all over Ireland in the very best of pubs, restaurants, hotels, stores, distillery, farms and everything else. . Thanks for putting up with me 😁🇮🇪🇺🇸

My friend from Philadelphia Susan having a chat as Gaeilge with Seán, a local Di**le friend of mine. Susan and her daughter Kerry are learning Irish back home in the US and were very keen to put it to use in Ireland 👏

My friend Frank inside what was essentially a ‘Kill Zone’ at Cahir castle in Tipperary, giving us an epic tour. Bringing history alive! 🇮🇪

A great crew of 7 from The Netherlands today in Guinness and we had fun but a few elements of it weren’t great unfortunately. Same as last year the famous Guinness adverts in the auditorium were replaced by some ‘artistic installation’ which takes away from the experience, happy to say the Christmas tree doesn’t cover up the famous lease for 9000 years this year as it did last December. Hope to see the adverts back next Christmas as no one cared for the ‘installation’.

Dublin for the craic 🇮🇪

When you are talking about the 1914 Howth gun running via the Asgard yacht and a yacht comes around the corner as if to recreate the scene! Always nice. 🇮🇪
