Christmas at Number 19, Blackrock, County Dublin, Ireland - 25th December 2009
It's Christmas Day in Blackrock, where Fred gets a ton of presents and Nosher and Isobel escape to the Breffni for a few beers one night. On Christmas day, there are hundreds of people around, but we still make it out for a few minutes for a short walk down to the seafront, after which it's the present-opening session and Christmas dinner in the basement kitchen. On the way, we stop over at Grandad's in Macclesfield in order to break up the drive between Diss and Holyhead, and after that we're at Evelyn and Louise's in Monkstown for a huge Indian takeaway and some early present-opening for Fred.
