  • Going Overboard


    Going Overboard

    Bertie’s going overboard today, hopefully. As I write this Bertie Ahern is speaking and it sounds like a resignation speech. I haven’t heard an apology for lying under oath and deceiving the public yet however.

    Unfortunately we’re all going to forget this by the next election. Hopefully the other parties will make hay while the sun shines.

    Posting this today as Miriam’s photo of the same sign reminded me I had shot this at Allihies Beach in Co. Cork.
    It’s appropriate too.

    Edit – he’s out. Bertie Ahern will resign on May 6th 2008.

    How to send flowers to ladies

    Obviously the gentlemen of Bantry are a polite and courteous bunch.

    While their women folk are in the public loo an enterprising soul will sell them flowers for their better half!

  • Ouvane River


    Ouvane River

    The Ouvane River runs near Bantry in Co. Cork and in the distance is Carriganass Castle.

    The weather was terrible when I took this. Showers, cold, wind. How I suffer for my art!

  • No. 20, Bantry


    No. 20, Bantry

    I walked around Bantry Town a bit snapping the local streets and this house appealed to me. I think I saw it in b/w and the lovely texture of the walls.

    It could also have been the hill and I wanted a small break from pushing the buggy around too of course.

  • The Lough Daffodils


    The Lough Daffodils

    We walked around The Lough and wandered over to the daffodils growing by the footpath at one of the lake. That’s Sean Murphy in the background as he preps some of his equipment to take a shot.

    Probably my last photo from the Lough Photowalk!

    Swans on The Lough

    Swans swim past on The Lough in Cork City. This was one of the first photos I took at the recent photowalk there. Despite the clear blue sky and lovely light it was quite cold with a biting wind!

  • Get 40 or maybe only 20 free prints from snapfish.ie

    Michele blogged that Snapfish.ie are offering 40 free prints to new users. Always game for free prints I clicked the registration link and was shocked to discover that they’re only offering 20 free prints. WTF! The lying cheating marketing scum! How could they do that?

    I signed up anyway. It’s 20 free prints and I wanted to get a few 6×4 prints made of family shots.

    This is the original email Michele was sent which clearly states the offer is for 40 prints.

    HP Snapfish 40 free prints

    The registration page says 20 prints. Strange isn’t it?

    HP Snapfish 40 free prints

    So, HP, can I have an extra 20 prints?

  • Big smile for the Parade!


    Big smile for the Parade!

    I think it’s safe to say this was the biggest smile of St. Patrick’s Day Parade 2008 for me. Nobody in the crowd was smiling anyway. They were all too squashed in or straining to see over the heads of those in front.

    I can see the parade!

    Some people go to all lengths to watch the St. Patrick’s Day Parade as these kids show.

    Congrats to my friends John and Ann on the birth of their son Caelin yesterday. You’re lives are going to change *so much* but you’re going to have a great time with the little guy!

    PS. Just upgraded almost all my blogs to WP 2.5, please leave a comment if you notice anything odd!
