I read somewhere (sorry, can't remember where, might have been one of those guide books you can get in the likes of Easons) that it opens on the 2nd weekend of November which is when we will be there so Damack won't have an irate gf to explain to.

Put her out of her misery now and tell her it's not on when the football is on and she will be going to the Dublin Docklands Christmas Market which sells the same sh*te as the Vienna Christmas Market

In Vienna visiting friends about 11 years ago just before Christmas the whole Christmas markets were great.

Every single street that has a outdoor bar will sell you Gluvine (Kinder Gluvine for non drinkers) where paid a deposit for a Mug ( Collectible) and then the Gluvine........... bring mug back if want or keep it.

May do that visit again at beginning of Dec.
