On Saturday morning I left Bedford and drove to Luton Airport where I hopped on a plane to Belfast – shortest and easiest flight I’ve ever taken. There I met Emma, a friend from Falmouth, and spent a few days with her as my guide around Belfast, the north coast and countryside, plus we also took a brief trip across the border into Ireland, to visit Dublin.
It was a wonderful weekend full of amazingly sunny weather, stunning surroundings, all manner of Game of Thrones related things and the odd leprechaun.
