Sunday Pintsecrets



On a somewhat recent photowalk thanks to Pix.ie around Dublin's Guinness Storehouse , I spotted this wall of messages.



Visitors were invited to grab a card and add it to the wall. Most had only appeared that week and no doubt there have been many new sets since. I found it a fascinating glimpse into creativity, thoughts and days in a Dublin building. Here are some of the many I liked.















I'm not too sure about this one... Hasn't she been to Kilkenny?






Got to love the memes...



My favourites - these two, especially the last one.





What cards did you like?

The Guinness Storehouse is open 9.30am to 5pm and there's a 10% entry discount on tickets through their website. There's a great photography competition called 'Share your experience' with a chance to win digital photo frames or €1,000!
