Hello my loveliess..
So I know this is a few weeks late but I swear I'm Getting better at time keeping..
Or at least I hope I will in the coming week 😜
So at the start of May I headed off on an adventure! I like bilbo bagging rarely leave the shire that is Dublin.. so I was super excited for my little adventure to a wonderful place called Kinsale in Co. Cork.
So on the First night, we wore our own attire and headed to Actons, were the rest of the girls and guys from the club were staying. Had a few drinks there and then headed to a nightclub called Baccas, the doorman of Actons told us that it was a top notch place to go. Was only a fiver in whereas the usually place to be The White Lady was €15..
That night I wore my 'Little Black Dress' dress, leggings, and my heeled boots that I got in the sales in New Look. I just had simple flicks and a touch of smokey eye for my make up. And hair the usually natural curls.
We had a ball of a night danced till the wee hours and headed back to Actons to the residents bar where I stayed and made new friends with the Henry Hoovers, great bunch of lads!!
I staggered into bed at 7.30 that morning to be woken up at half 9 to get ready for the day of rugby, dancing and more mischief!
We, the socials had our first match at 12.40, we played Old Belvo, and as we didn't take it very serious, we lost. We came back with a bang in our second match against a quite lovely English team, and won. I made a great tackle and sat in appreciation for a while after it 😜
Unfortunately the weather wasn't great as it was rain, rain and more thundery rain.. but as us ruggers do we got on with it and had the banter.
Throughout the day We supported our Elites team who did very well against all teams they came up against. And as a railway kinsale tradition we did our human pyramid.. We had some #structuralissues
That night we wore our specially made railway women's tshirts with our nickname wrote on the back. Mine was 'drop it' as I dropped the ball a few times during the year but told people it was because I 'drop it like it's hot'😂
I teamed it with my black high waisted skinnies I bought from penneys and my black New Look boots, along with simple smokey eye and curled hair as it was lashing and didn't see the point in doing anything else 😜 #afro
We stayed in Actons that night not venturing anywhere else.
The next day we had no matches but we went to support our elites.. I got up slightly later than everyone else and decided it would be a Fantastic idea if I put some face paint on. I did the railway colours on my cheeks and dots all around my eyebrows..
The weather was quite a lot nicer than it had been so wore my classy orange sunnies..
The banter was had that day! I stayed in the beer tent dancing the day away.. didn't realise the time going by!! By 7pm it was time to head off and start getting ready for our 80s workout disco theme night.. I was super excited for that... I couldn't wait to wear vibrant colours with crazy hair!
A picture will be provided soon of that look.. everything was bought in Claires accessories and penneys
That night taxis were very scarce so we decided to walk from our b&b to Actons which was a lovely moonlit walk.
The night was full of crazy from dancing, doing a 'call on me' video workout, human pyramid, cartwheels, handstands to playing hide and seek.. you name it it was probably done 😂
I stumbled home at 9am the next morning walking from the hotel to my b&b..
Having to get our stuff together and leave so early wasn't good but we got to chill in the hotel till our very lovely teammate collected us for the drive home..
Was a fantastic weekend.. Every weekend should be a kinsale weekend.. memories were made and to be never ever forgotten!!
Hope y'all enjoyed my little weekend away story.. If you enjoy rugby and drink and banter you should definitely make sure to head down!!
Ps. A few pictures of my lovely adventure are below 😄
Love nikkie xox
