Heading up to Dublin on the local commuter train…
The interior of The Counter, Sussex Street, Dublin.
Once upon a time, a couple / few decades ago, this was an Italian restaurant called Tosca. One night @petermorwood, Ronald D. Moore and I dodged in here out of a rainstorm. I was okay because I had a hat. The boys… not so much. They had to head downstairs and dry their hair (quite a lot of it, in Ron’s case…) under the hand dryer in the men’s room.
It was a great dinner, though. Ah, memories…. 🙂

A year ago today, we were sat waiting for the world premiere of @GoodOmensPrime to start.
