Ann, I see I'll share my nights with the trains, hope it will be comfy to me as well. Anyway we'll be tired strolling around in the city, not only at the Trinity College, so it would perhaps be easier to sleep.
Shame on me, but didn't know LC's poem "A kite is a victim". A little shocking title until I read it all. Sad and true, thanks for letting me know.
will be my first visit to Dublin as well, Gio.... maybe I'll bump into you at Trinity? Hope I'm a long way from the trains tho....
About the hotel, what's done is done, just can hope it isn't too noisy..
Why not? We could even meet at Trinity, greeny. You all can know it is me as I'm a short woman with a tall man speaking Italian very well and English with a barbarian accent.....

You'll be fine, Gio - you'll have a great time. You sound like a person who sets out to enjoy a holiday, and it's all in the mind - at least most of it is, anyway! have fun...
Forget your perfect offering -
There is a crack in everything...
I think I will as did many times in several different countries, Ann.
Just, this time, will attend a very special concert.. thrilled and emotional. I'm listening to LC's poetry/music and study a lot as I'd like to understand and enjoy as much as I can.
Hopefully many young raptors already left the nest and territory where they were born, so I can deal with "our man" almost all my free time.
BTW anybody from Italy in Dublin that week?

Needed to touch them...
