On a warm October evening, there was no need for wool caps or scarves.

Man looking right, woman in the bus looking left, and a red man says stop.

Two women walk past the entrance to Trinity in Dublin. The 396 bus drives past.

A woman reads her newspaper in a café on Grafton Street, Dublin.

At the SHARE crib on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork earlier this month. Street fundraisers for SHARE were everywhere again this month, and even had tap-and-pay machines to pay by credit card or phone.

First up is Hoppy. She’s around 13 and only has three legs but she’s a fast mover. In the past she didn’t mind the cold but now she likes to avoid it. Here’s Mommy Cat. She’s Hoppy’s mom. She’s around 16 as best we can guess, as she was around for a few years before…

Gardai enter a shop on Grafton Street, late one evening in October this year. Their uniforms match the bright yellow shop colours.

A Garda car speeds past with lights flashing outside Trinity in Dublin a few weeks back. Rain made the evening miserable, but I had an umbrella and there were still loads of people about.

Just some Jokers and witches on O’Connell Bridge in Dublin on Halloween night. I stopped the Jokers for a photo, and the two witches wanted to take part too!

Heading home, late at night to the train station in Dublin on November 1st.

677. On Friday night I was out in a pub watching live music. An unfortunately rare occurrence. Fintan Lucy and Lynda Cullen sang together, accompanied by Martin Leahy and later by Dee Power. It was a wonderful night in front of a packed crowd in a small room.
