Le Weekend
And what a busy one it was too. We kicked off with champagne in GUBU, where my good friend Ciarán Coleman was celebrating the fact that he has just landed a top job with an international pharmaceutical company. We continued on to PoD, where we were joined by Ross Golden - Bannon, who was celebrating also. Ross had just come from RTE where he was accompanying Jean Butler, who had just appeared on The Late Late Show.
Jean is goodwill ambassador for the Christian Blind Mission and Forgotten Children (who Ross' PR agency represent) and had just returned from a trip to Rwanda with much news to tell.
Saturday night was a long and busy one, however in all the madness I sought refuge in the newly opened Centre Stage Café, on Parliament Street. Owner Martin Moore is full of hospitality and makes a killer Kir Royale. Do check it out.
The biggest news of the weekend was to be had at Leopardstown racecourse. Winning the Hennessey Cognac Gold Cup was none other than Rule Supreme, a racehorse owned by John Fallon, who is father of my good friend Oonagh Fallon. As Judith Giltinane informed me today, there was much celebration indeed!
