COLIN BACK HOME IN DUBLIN...

Here we see Colin in preparation for his return to Dublin

QUOTE:

Our favourite Hollywood star Colin Farrell is back in Dublin for Christmas and as Clare was telling you earlier she spotted him in Donnybrook last night, and he’s been seen out and about in the city this morning, so keep your eyes peeled. Colin must be enjoying our cold snap as he revealed to me recently he gets a bit sick of the heat living in LA.

HEADING HOME FOR CHRISTMAS...

According to the Herald.ie - Colin is heading back to the homeland for Christmas... right I'm off to book my flight to Dublin! ; - D 

 EXTRACTS FROM THE ARTICLE

GOOD news for female fans of Hollywood hunk Colin Farrell (34) -- the recently single superstar will be spending Christmas in Dublin. 

"Colin used to come home from LA every Christmas and just go on the rampage in places like Renards. You would always know when he was back because he would be pictured coming out of the clubs. But now that he's on the dry and has two young boys, he has completely changed.

"His children and his family are his number one priority now and he'll be having a quiet time during his trip back here, just enjoying catching up with everyone. 

He's going to the Dubai Film Festival for a screening of The Way Back but will be coming back in Christmas week."

The star confirmed this recently after saying how now that he has turned over a new leaf, he is far less visible during his trips back home and doesn't stir up the same interest among the paparazzi.

"For a while I was out more and I was very easy to find," he said. "Obviously now I'm in the gaff and boring, I'm not interesting to press any more. You need X-ray lenses to get at me."

As well as conquering his drink and drug demons, Colin is also firmly back in the driving seat when it comes to his career.  His new movie London Boulevard opens in cinemas this week...

HOMEBOY BACK IN DUBLIN...

Good to see Colin still has time for the Dublin local's...

COLIN WITH TRINA MARA

EXTRACT:

... 98’s Trina Mara was also there and tried to get the goss on whether or not Colin had tied the knot with his Polish girlfriend, asking cheekily to see his ring finger after all the recent rumours, sparked when a photo was snapped of him wearing a gold band on his finger this week.

Colin seemed aghast at such a prospect of domestic stability and was adamant there was nothing doing in that department “You’ve said it already – rumours; you should know to discount them, c’mon…”  The Castleknock Casanova went on to insist the gold band he was spotted with should have a ‘familar ring’ to it, claiming he’d had it for at least three years.

ANGELS BRING HOPE TO DUBLIN, BUT WILL COLIN?

Colin Farrell will be one of the participants in a unique collection of “angels” due to be displayed in Dublin and all over Ireland from Dec 2009 - March 2010. The angels will return to Dublin to be auctioned in aid of three charities.

The 2.4m tall fiberglass angels were constructed from a single mold. An array of Ireland’s finest artists, musicians, sports people and celebrities and a number of international guests have been invited to participate and support this fun initiative by painting and decorating one of the angels using their own designs to show the nation their interpretation of Hope.

This is Neil Jordan's effort... very contemporary.

We can only hope Colin doesn't decide to pay homage to Alicja with a Polish Mother Angel complete with babe in arms... I'm not sure the Dublin people would be ready for that!
