If you think what they have done with the old banks in Manchester is amazing then this transformation of the old Ulster bank headquarters into the Merchant hotel in Belfast is a real treat.
Believe it or not the interior shots are where we had breakfast!

Mum and I walked along Southwold Pier today. It was blowing a gale but these benches have been built with glass screens around them and they certainly seemed to be working. Some good quality shops and cafes along there.

I've got a bit of a claim to fame! As I arrived at my usual Manchester hut there were loads of fans waiting for someone outside. As I checked in the someone was checking out late. Many apologies from reception as the someone had been sleeping in my usual bed! I had to go in the next door room. The someone.....Ronaldinho!

I think so. He was over here for the Soccer Aid match last night.
I saw him play at the David Beckham charity match last year and he was doing all his clever tricks then to entertain the crowd.

Ha! I'm afraid so. I do seem to have been popping up here and there this month!  ;D

I'm going to let someone guess the location of the view. An unofficial quiz question!
