Kay and I go way back, 25 years in fact. My best buddy from my first Irish OT job and we’ve stayed connected all these years. So good to see her today and have a laugh again. by @taragraywrites

Just checking in from Dublin. Filmed this on my way to see a play at the Abbey Theatre - Animals by @blindboyboatclub. Part of the Dublin Theatre Festival. Standing ovation at the end for a thought provoking yet entertaining piece of theatre. Will take me a while to digest this like a new dessert (just as well I ate an apple and rhubarb crumble prior). Great to catchup with my dear friend Kay too. by @taragraywrites

Just back from my first proper walk around my local village. Enjoyed some arvo tea and a spot of writing in the Irish speaking cafe Aon Scéal. Making the most of the sunshine before the weather tanks. by @taragraywrites

Good weekend in Dublin and Wicklow. National museum where I indulged in my passion for archaeology, watched posh peeps in The Shellbourne Hotel, stumbled across the Aussie embassy and had a delightful walk with my cousin up the Dublin/Wicklow mountains to the Hellfire Club, then polished off a raspberry and white chocolate scone. #dublin #wicklowmountains by @taragraywrites

Grew up hearing my dad tell the Devil‑at‑the‑card‑table story — he’d scare us half to death with it. Walking through the Hell Fire Club today with my cousin Therese and Bob the doggie, I heard dad after dad doing the same… sneaking up on their kids, making them jump just like we used to.
The old tale is still alive on that hill — whispered, retold, and lurking in the shadows. 🔥🐾🌫️

A great first day at the new job. Fuelled by chocolate, Barry’s tea and a lovely bunch of OTs. Interestingly the uniform has not changed since I last worked in Dublin 25 years ago! Praying I can kick start a fun-scrubs day at work (yes I packed the tartan). #dublin #ireland #occupationaltherapy by @taragraywrites
