    JUst one night Hypno but it is my first DFW night away and so I am going with such a different attitude.

    EG I got my euro at post office, why pay withdrawl charges to banks but most importantly I am not taking it for granted (as I would have done before) and really am quite excited about staying in a hotel and, saddo that I am, eating breakfast out!

    Amazing how this 'place' changes what you value!

    Ta - off tomorrow morning and am quite excited.

    We are going to the semi finals of the All Ireland Gaelic Football Championship - like FA Cup I suppose. There are 32 counties in Ireland and so to get to final 4 is a big deal - we haven't won All Ireland since 1994 so fever pitch around here.
