Saturday In Dublin! Hair & Beauty with a pitstop at Alfie's Restaurant

Pynck spent the day in Dublin city - taking care of a few errands and enjoying a tasty bite in the middle of it!

First stop was the David Marshall Hair Salon. We were very impressed and would highly recommend it to our readers. You can find out more about services offered on their official website, www.davidmarshall.ie. Located on 12 Fade Street, it's a perfect location if you're in the city taking care of things!

Next stop was Alfies Restaurant. We had a delicious Alfie Apple Crumble which you can see below. We thoroughly enjoyed it - if you like the look of it, drop in to the restuarent when you're in the area - full menu and information on http://www.alfies.ie/.



 

Next up was a spot of shoping at the Om Diva Boutique. They have a sale on at the moment and some lovely Spring looks at discount prices. Check them out at www.omdivaboutique.com. Our shopping spree continued into Hairspray. They also have a sale on at the moment selling many useful hairpieces such as scrunchies - fantastic value! Find out more at www.hairspray.ie.

 

Dublin Simon Community - "Before Simon, I was losing the will to live"

When you are facing homelessness there is no door to close and no escape from fear or judgement. You feel alone, isolated and worthless. These feelings often become so intense, so overwhelming, that you lose any sense of yourself.

The short clip below is a mere snapshot of experiences of the men and women that we have supported along their journey to a place called home.



A gift of whatever you can manage will show these men and women that there are brighter days ahead, that they are part of our community and deserve a future, just like you and I.

Dublin Horse Show 2017

Pynck attended the RDS Horse Show 2017 recently - a fantastic event with a range of entertainment and enjoyable food. The first entertaining sight was The Flying French Man and his horses, impressing the crowds!





Some extravagant guests added to the wow factor!



Pynck went on to enjoy the day at the champagne bar and the Guinness stand. There was some beautiful seafood and cheese plates available at the champagne bar.





Then came the main event itself, the Sports Ireland Classic. It was a one, two, three for Ireland! Shane Breen, Bertram Allen, and Anthony Condon won the day for Ireland on Ipswich Van de Wolfsaaker, which won the respectable prize of €8118 on the first day of the Horse Show. The winning time was an impressive 41.83! Following are images of the international horseriders displaying skill and beauty.
