Christmas Market at Dublin Castle, Designer Dublin Christmas Market, Farmleigh Christmas Events, Dun Laoghaire Christmas Market

 

 

Hi all!

Christmas Fans are concerned and Christmas fiends can’t wait. In four days it is all over again, but these last few days are the busiest! So for my Christmas Fans, use this last opportunity to go to the Christmas Markets and if you go to the (or have been already) new “Christmas At The Castle” Market, then I would love to hear your opinion. Did you like the new market? And what can be improved?

I created a little questionnaire here forms.gle/jhTj9RoEsYDABx9H8 that will ask you for your opinion about the market and I will make sure that the organisations behind the market will hear (and consider) your opinion! The market is really nice and has great potential and hopefully it will be back even better next year. Make your opinion known!

Christmas at the Dublin Event Guide:
I will leave Ireland behind for a little while over Christmas and for that reason, there might be no Dublin Event Guide on 27 Dec or if there will be one, then it will be a very short one. That means that this week is the last chance to support the Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events) in this decade!! ;-)

Like Christmas presents, all help is very much appreciated and the great thing is that you don’t have to spend any of your own money, all I need is a a few clicks or taps. Super easy and fast! And you will have done a good deed for Christmas and will have helped to keep the Dublin Event Guide alive! :-)

This is how the support works and it is really super easy:
Just go to www.DublinEventGuide.com and at the top you will find the sentence “Is this what you were looking for?”. Right below that sentence you should find a rectangular ad. Please click on it!
The ad might change every time you open/refresh the page, so I can’t tell you what it is promoting. And if you don’t see an ad there, please turn your Ad Blocker off and refresh the page and then do the clicking. ;-) Thanks!
If you click on the ad, I get between 5 and 30 cent. That is not much, but if enough people help, it will do the job to cover the cost to keep the Dublin Event Guide going. Some people have asked me for the Dublin Event Guide PayPal link for direct donations and here it is: www.paypal.me/DublinEventGuide

MERRY CHRISTMAS from the Dublin Event Guide to you all!! :-)

–Joerg
