Yesterday we walked into Derry. M and Steve wanted to watch some of the Dublin Super Cup football (i.e. soccer) match. The game wasn't being televised on any of the channels we get, as sports channels are premium upgrades for most cable and satellite packages here. We looked in the windows of several pubs to see if they had the game on. When we arrived at Peadar O'Donnells, a Derry pub known for traditional Irish music, we were surprised to see that there were signs for music but the TVs were on and tuned to the game. Surely, they couldn't be planning both music AND the game, could they? But that's what they were planning: one room of the bar had the game and the other had a local trio. The guys got front row seats at the bar in the room showing the game and I got to listen to Irish music. Something for everyone! :)
Now it's time for me to walk to St Columb's Park and pick up M after the first day of his soccer camp.
