Thanks for the list Heidi,

Exotic Car Festival and pies what more could a girl ask for

[Mrs Brizzle]

The Pies are great , we did the Pie Festival last year although we didn't pay for the ticket that allows you to eat all the pies. The girls did all the craft activities and loved it, we also watched the baton twirling girls and listened to the story telling. There were also lots of stalls to wander around. It was a really great day out.

This year we are over for St Patricks day which should be interesting.
We get Hootie and the Blowfish :-

On Saturday March 15th, Grammy Award winning recording artist Hootie and the Blowfish will perform a FREE St. Patrick’s Day concert in Celebration Town Center as a part of the Robert Gamez Celebrity Weekend benefiting local charities. In addition to Hootie and the Blowfish, additional acts will include Rock and Pop Masters featuring performances by Jimi Jamieson (Survivor), Mike Reno (Loverboy), John Cafferty and Michael Antunes (Beaver Brown Band), and Larry Hoppen (Orleans). The event begins at 7:00 PM and parking and admission are FREE.

Thanks for that Heidi .We will be there on March 15th God willing to add another shade of green to the celebrations> I plead ignorance but I have no idea who Hootie and the Blowfish are or any of the others. That will not stop us having a good time ,the weather should be better than it usually is for the Dublin Parade .
