i've only been there once or twice and i only have a vague memory of photos by the bathrooms, but it made me remember something that i found incredible. have you been to DeBarra's pub in Clonakilty, Co. Cork? it's got some truly astounding photos of irish musicians throughout the last few decades on the walls absolutely everywhere (and a lot of not-irish musicians too, like bob dylan and stuff!) but one that stood out for me was one quite high up, bigger than the others, of mic christopher playing in DeBarra's, and the caption underneath said "Mic Christopher, playing in DeBarra's in September 2001, on his last birthday"...needless to say it brought a few tears to my eyes!

but back on topic, rice pudding that's unlucky.. hope you had a good time in ireland besides that though
