I'm going to Dublin this weekend for a wedding
Tell me your experiences of travelling to the Emerald Isle, or of weddings and the amusing things you have seen there.

During my friends wedding up in Ambleside the bridesmaid who first walked through the door fell off her high heel and said "Shit!" very loudly. The whole church suppressed the urge to laugh. It was quite amusing.

I went swimming in the Irish sea

I went swimming in Whitley Bay in October, that was pretty fucking cold.

I went to a wedding party outside of Dublin years ago.
All I remember is being about a foot taller than everyone in the room and standing out like a sore thumb because I was dressed all in black.

Was it a leprechaun wedding?

I felt like a fucking freak of nature that day.

Not to Ireland, but from there
I took the last flight on Chrismas eve from Shannon to Heathrow. Several passengers brought on Christmas trees, as hand luggage. I'm sure that several passengers stood for the entire flight. They must have used the crew seats for take off and landing.
