On Monday we started our bu tour with Paddywagon, there we're about 3 different tours starting so we all got mixed up into different buses.Our driver Sam is really funny, he is originally from Sligo, Westlife's home town, he told the bus very amusing stories about Mark, Kian and Shane.
Our First Stop was at Drogheda, to a church where the preserved head of St. Oliver Plunkett is kept, It was very well maintained but gross at the same time so I didnt spend too much time looking at it.
Next we went to an old monestry where they had a cemetry and the tallest and widest celtic cross. We stayed over night in Derry (or London Derry to all the british loyalists) but because the hostel we were originally meant to stay at was fully booked the coupke on out bu got upgraded to a B&B down the road.
That night we all went bowling and had dinner at the local bowling alley, it was pretty fun but Brett hurt his back so didnt bowl as much. Thursday will be our last day in Dublin the back to London for a day then out European bus tour starts..whoo!! dotn know how often we'll be near a comp so this may be my last blog for awhile.

Hi Mel! Sounds like you guys are having a ball! I thought the head was gross too when I went to see it - something about it being perserved in a fire if I recall correctly??!! Gross!! I hope Brett's back is ok. Have an awesome time on your tour of Europe - I'm sure you both will. Mez xx
