Charidee work is very time consuming - but well worth the effort.
The Horse Show Ball was a resounding success. Shared my table with the wonderful TV gal-about-town, Caroline Morohan, her boyf Jordan Lee, friends Gel, Conall and Caolin. Also seated with us were Letty Fernandez, model Ruth Doyle and her friend Paula Mythen of Electric News.
Down to Anabels for a short while and on to the usual, Lillies.

As all of that was well over a week ago I can't remember what I've been up to since. I'll bring you up to last Thursday and the departure of Sarah Reid. Sarah is a cousin of Dannielle McKee and is heading back to her native San Fran. Drinks in Cocoon and more in Lillies ensured a good send off. Bon voyage Sarah.

Friday night was again spent in the Bordello. But not before a visit to the Portobello for the 21st birthday bash of ex-235 resident, Claire Halton. All the possee was out in force to help The Asp celebrate this lifetime landmark. Looking every inch the party girl in a black and white low cut number, Claire was in top form. Other revellers included Itchy & Scratchy (aka Elaine and Emma D), celebrity chefs Cathriona Maguire and Jerome Peray, Siobhan Flood and a rare appearance by Sinead McIntyre. Many others, too numerous to mention also graced the Porto nightclub, Kostellos. The new Lillies? Anyway, back in the V VIP bar of said establishment, Brian Westlife and Joe 'Def Leopard' Elliott were singing away like goodo upstairs. This new music combo was dubbed Def Life by pianist Paul Harrington. A truely riotous night. On a different note, Karla Elliott (or Rhamdanie), Joe's ex-wife, has split from her current beau, Ray Senior.

That's all the news in Dublin.....coming up we have a mad hatters party in Lillies tomorrow evening. And of course who could forget U2 in Slane over the weekend.
