Bloomsday


The Bloggist celebrates Bloomsday with a visit to Nora Barnacle's home in Galway from where she left to work in Dublin. There she met James Joyce. Their relationship started off well and with no illusions, in her own words, "I knew him at once for just another Dublin jackeen chatting up a country girl". The Nora Barnacle Museum was closed when the Bloggist visited and it appears it generally is closed. As Billy Pilgrim might say, "So it goes".
