Jurys Inn Parnell St, Dublin

*****

Great location for Northside activities. Clean rooms if a little on the small side. Polite staff and efficient check-in/check-out processes. Cheap enough rates too... Internet @ 5 Euros for 1 hour or 10 Euros for 24 hours.

A Commonwealth of Thieves, by Thomas Keneally

*****

A reasonable introduction to the (colonial) history of Australia, that promises just a little more than it delivers.

The Wind That Shakes The Barley Movie

*****

Far from perfect but a great insight into the uncertainty of 1919 to 1922 in Ireland.
