A Morris Minor, registered in 1964, parked in Bantry town in County Cork. Pictured in September 2008 while on holiday there. After reading the Wikipedia page on the car this is probably a Minor 1000.

Caution! Unprotected High Cliffs
Filed in Bantry, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, SignsA sign at the base of the short hill below the white pillar near Bantry in Co Cork warns of high cliffs.

Back Gardens in Bantry
Filed in Bantry, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Houses, Ireland, Landscape, Photography, Photos, UrbanBantry town is built on the hills surrounding a natural harbour so it’s a hard slog with a buggy if you want to go anywhere.

It seems to work well, these signs are dotted all around the country, but in Bantry it looks like they’re [...]
Let’s celebrate with a few drinks! Hic!
Filed in Bantry, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, UrbanBoth Phil and Geraldine listed this blog in their “Arte y Pico” award list which gave me a warm glow because (other than the River Lee photos earlier in the week) comments have been far and few between here for quite a while. Unfortunately I’m going to break the chain and not link to the [...]
