The old house by the Castle

If you’ve been to Blarney recently you won’t have seen this house. It was cleared several years ago and is now an open stretch of grass, and new wooden buildings used by the staff of Blarney Castle.

February 2015.

Queue for the bus on St. Patrick’s Quay

The bus stops on St. Patrick’s Quay are being moved to various locations around the city disrupting the future travel arrangements of people who use them.

You used to be able to get a bus from west Cork to the city, walk to the next bus stop and hop on a bus to Dublin but now they’ll be in separate parts of the city.

Not exactly encouraging for people with mobility issues.

Most of the kids and some of the adults who took part in the Blarney Fun Run today. Blistering heat didn’t stop this group enjoying themselves and I saw lots of happy smiles as kids crossed the finish line.

Surrounded by everyone else is Michael, the Little Blue Hero. He was guest of honour and raised the flag at the start the race. 🙂

A tree at sunset

Walking through the grounds of Blarney Castle late one November evening when the sun is setting. The shadows grow long and black fills the spaces between orange light.
