Mr. Ed Well, maybe he doesn’t talk, but this horse sure eats a lot!

Relaxing on Panna Young and old women relax on St. Patrick Street in the glorious sunshine about a month ago.

World Book Day Singer (1/4) Cork celebrated World Book Day a little late but it didn’t stop the organisers putting on a great show! This gentleman performed for the crowds outside the City Library and attempted to serenade many of the females who walked past. This is what the street entertainer in yesterday’s picture was…

The Craft Fair is now on! A craft fair was recently held in the Unitarian Church on Prince’s Street. I have been dying to get into the building and see what it’s like on the inside for ages so we jumped at the chance. We like visiting these fairs too so it was doubly good….

Picadilly Lane Cork has it’s own Picadilly, Picadilly Lane leads off North Main Street and is situated next to the butchers I featured previously.

The French Soap Seller One of the stalls at the St. Patrick’s Festival Market sold perfumed soaps and other crafts. This French gentleman owned the stall and cheerfully told us that he’d be travelling the country until his stock ran out, at which point he’d return home and have to do household chores for his…

Cork St Patrick’s Festival Market One side of Academy Street was taken up by a long line of stalls populated by an international host of sellers! There were biscuits and cakes from Brittany, soaps and wooden toys from France, clothes and trinkets from Peru and lots more. I took a few shots of this scene…
