Is chivalry dead?
Several times over the last few weeks when I've been on our tram line with my daughter in her pram young men have offered me their seat (or offered to help me take them pram down some stairs) - chivalry is also not dead here in Dublin I am glad to report!- Miss Golightly

The Anglo-Irish War (1919-1921) and Irish Civil War
Thank you Blackthorn! I forgot to mention that all the gents were beautifully turned out and all donning straw boaters. There were lots of cool events on in Dublin for Bloomsday - hopefully some year I will join in in all the fun (once I remember when it's taking place of course!).- Miss Golightly

The Anglo-Irish War (1919-1921) and Irish Civil War
Thanks Story! I completely forgot about Bloomsday but was out in Monkstown on Saturday (in County Dublin) and came across a bunch of chaps (mostly) who were standing outside one of the pubs singing Danny Boy (beautifully), all drinking wine and eating kidneys (or was it liver - I couldn't say!)...- Miss Golightly

Lee Remick in Anatomy of a Murder (1959)
I was only watching this movie the other day - Lee Remick was a stunner. I love that scene in the courtroom where she takes off her hat and shakes her hair, delighting in everyone admiring her beauty!- Miss Golightly

What era of dress or style doyou prefer?
For me it's the late 50's to mid 60's - I love the clothes from the 50's generally but the clean lines of 60's clothing suit my shape better (shift/sheath dresses in particular). Any Audrey Hepburn movie from the late 50's/mid 60's would be my style inspiration (her wardrobe from Charade is...- Miss Golightly

What was the last TV show you watched?
Very interesting documentary on our Irish speaking channel TG4 - CSÍ (pronounced CSI Fada) - a series of programmes that features Irish historical crime stories but reveals unexpected twists and turns with elements of a who dunnit, modern forensic analysis and cold case review. Tonights...- Miss Golightly

What Did You Drink Last Night?
Thanks Rue - cannot wait to move in! My husband's favourite tipple! I think Glenfiddich does smell rather good but could never drink the stuff in a million years. In my twenties, when I was ill with the flu my Mum used to make me a small hot Whiskey - I mean a dribble at the bottom of a cup...- Miss Golightly
