I was there too
Big Generator rocked Cobh last August during the Cobh People’s Regatta. They played in the band stand in the park and even later in the evening after the fireworks there was a large crowd dancing and enjoying the music! Look out for them as they play around the country.

It was October 2007, and I was in Cobh to photograph the game between Cobh Ramblers and Dundalk FC. The visitors were beaten 1-0 but Chris Bennion stopped this attempt on goal.
I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve photographed a football game, but this was the first one, a long time ago!

On a warm August day in 2005, you’d find plenty of lads fishing in Cobh, including this bunch who were brave enough to fish from a crumbling pier.
Another photo from that evening shows a disturbance in the water at the mouth of Cobh harbour, where I presume sprat are desperately trying to get away from mackerel and other fish. I wonder if that still happens?

Laurel & Hardy visited Cobh in Co. Cork today, exactly 70 years after they last visited in 1953! The two gentlemen are looking exceedingly well for their age, I’m sure you’ll agree. They put on a fine show, doing several sketches and singing a few favourites and doing a dance.
Lucky Dog Theatre Productions were in town this weekend for this special anniversary, and were helped by Haulbowline Theatre Group. They were so good. There were lots of laughs. 🙂
