Disappointing Capital of Culture experience
Some of our best ever holidays have been spent in Ireland, but I have to say that we were thoroughly underwhelmed by what wasn't happening during our recent trip to sample the delights of this year's European Capital of Culture.
Perhaps naively, we expected to be drowned in a sea of publicity, endlessly being handed leaflets and brochures, and entertained by the street performers who normally feature as part of the razzmatazz of such events.
