I was there too
Bishop Lucey Park in Cork is surrounded by hoarding with text describing the history of the area. But you don’t want to read about that, do you? That cute little doggy is all any of us wants to see. 🙂

We visited Bantry recently, on Valentines Day, and the town was buzzing. The square was taken over by the market, which is always worth a wander around. As we ate our burritos, I spotted the sun hitting the street nearby, leaving one side in shadow, and also illuminating the countryside rising up out of the background.
It’s a busy scene, and the van in the foreground is distracting, but that’s life. Everything’s messy, and then we went for coffee and scones in the community café. Yum. 🙂

We went to see Qween perform in The Everyman theatre last night. Their performance had to be delayed because of one of the major winter storms a few weeks ago, but it was most certainly worth the wait!
They put on a great show, entertaining us all with the fabulous music of Queen, the greatest band in the world.
Definitely, if they are performing near you, go see them!
