Was in the Carlisle grounds in Bray earlier in the evening and you could just see the tops of Killiney & Dalkey Hills - the bank of fog just kept rolling in and out. And yes that was a lot more interesting than watching what passed for football on the pitch!

Bummer about the fog Al. Closer to me, skies were more or less perfect in terms of cloud cover (none) and seeing (superb) Sunday and Monday nights.
