Off for a wee cuppa tea and a wee lookie lookie

- to this the world’s #1 city to live in. 5* Backpacking and quick visit to seattle possibly. Expecting to be back for Sun night/Mon am (pending the airlines known reputation for flight shifts-delays), but hey it was only €93 e/way direct from Dublino, cheap as chips..

A-level results in N.Ireland

Northern Ireland’s A-level students have achieved better grades than their counterparts in England and Wales.
1/3 of the results in Northern Ireland were A grades, compared to 1/4 elsewhere in the UK.

I managed to get a ‘B’ back in 1996 in for Art & Design, and passes for the other two.
- which I was pleased with considering I studied them all part-time 1 day per week…

Aurora Building & the U2 Tower

Just noticed, whilst contracting ole Belfast, the new 109 metres, 37 stories Building is under construction.

Although the U2 Tower (below¬) in Dublin will be slightly taller – currently aiming for 130 metres. Hope there will be some affordable housing included in these projects.
