So I have arrived home to dublin with niamh and couldnt be happier. Everything just feels so right and she did such a wonderful job of getting everything feel like home.
I got here on saturday morning and went round to meet her family that evening where we got chinese food and I was greeted with a leprechaun in the window and a tricolour lai around my neck.

This past year has been really the best of my life. Everything seems to be going really well currently. I have a great girlfriend, I am healthy (other than a cough/cold) and I have a job that if I dont love at least enjoy
