What a great way to spend Stephen's Day! I was there myself in 1999 (long long ago, gosh, the memories...). Great atmosphere. Miranda was around (photographer working for Image magazine, section "Miranda's Diary", where she wanders about Ireland attending special events and taking pictures of anyone that attracts her attention). You guessed it... She took a picture of me! I was printed in full colour, one quarter of a page, in the December '99 edition... The closest I've ever been to fame... Isn't Ireland special?? Well, enough boasting for now... Best wishes for 2008 Torego! I hope you'll keep writing this wonderful diary so that I can read you! Wow! What a great way to spend Stephen’s Day!
