[My Own Stuff] Thursday at Dundrum shopping centre

So was out to Dundrum's shopping centre (called The Town centre, even though the town centre is really the village, not the shopping centre. I see many a confused tourists in the near future!) and I was not well too impressed with it. It lacked a certain character, and I suppose it was in fairness 7pm, but it was a Thursday evening. It's biggish, but I was expecting something more lavish. But it's still incomplete. The sign at Balally was a large white paper with Town Centre scrawled on it, very temporary. Heh, but the one thing I got was a Luas smartcard (I wish they called it something interesting, like the Octopus or Pearl card, smart card is just such a practical name.) Had a nice dinner there, they have a world cuisine section on the top floor, and food is cooked for you there and then. Going up to it, I nearly fell off the escalator, as there was a huge flat display on the way up.
