The History of Design - I didn't know when I set out what would be discussed here. I was always proud to say I was studying "The History of Design" at the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin... so that was my starting point...

Quaker Museum
Visited Quaker museum in a wee village in Kildare/Kilkenny today. V enjoyable, interesting quirky. Info about Mary Leadbeater (?), related to Shakletons. Also Edmund Burke was a quarker. Funny layout of info posters - didn't seem to be chronological or informatively ordered, hard to comprehend. Helpful librarian who let us upstairs. One of the three museum rooms was a costume exhibition with a humidifier etc, very professional! I described the experience to a friend this eve and she said "surreal". I just say a different side to life in our wee country - it exists!
