This is great to see…

They say the best way to spread Christmas cheer is by singing loud for all to hear (well, Buddy the Elf does), but we think that a visit from this bunch could help.

Dublin footballers Paul Flynn and Bernard Brogan along with The Script frontman Danny O’Donoghue and The Lord Mayor of Dublin Críona Ní Dhálaigh paid a visit to Temple Street Children’s hospital yesterday.

They took time out of their day to meet some of the children and their families yesterday in a wonderful gesture and they even brought the Sam Maguire with them.

But best of all, Santa made an appearance.

These beautiful images captured by Alan Roulette warmed our cold, cold hearts just a small little bit…
