Having a great weekend in London meeting old friends, walking the city, checking out exhibitions and visiting old haunts.
Can’t believe myself and Clare could live in this place, right beside Victoria park, in our mid/late 20s when we were totally broke. Probably unobtainable now for young people.

My brain is still reeling from my holiday - 6 cities (and 2 towns) in 2 weeks. But exposing the kids to multiple places, languages, food, cultures and histories was totally worth it.

Interrailing with the kids is fantastic. Lots of great chats and totally falling in love with cities all over again.

Father’s Day pressie was a trip to 14 Henrietta Street and then stoneybatter festival. Brilliant museum - telling the story of the city through a single house, from Georgian Dublin to 20th century slum tenements.

The council acquired this site (and the whole block) under the 1966 Fenian Street CPO and the buildings were demolished. I think the current building on the site is from early 2000s.
Here is Burke's during demolition

🧵 Was looking up a site for work - old Lolly & Cooks retail unit corner of Holles Street / Fenian Street - and got curious about its history. Turns out to be a really fascinating and fairly important in the history of the city, a housing crisis and the council.
