what mob?

April 18th, 2008

That was no mob! A pitiful performance! You should be ashamed of yourselves – those who didn’t make the effort. Its a team effort people!
In this photo are a few of the mobsters.

Here is all the space available for potential mobsters

Those who were there were awesome! A small group, who gathered afterwards, included Duke Special [...]

saint patrick facts

March 19th, 2008

Well I live in Ireland so I can’t forget about St Patrick’s Day now can I.
I like to keep it pretty quiet – see last year’s rant for why. The plan was to take photographs of the parade as it made its way from the City Hall to to Custom House Square, but of course [...]


irish blog awards 2008 – part 2

March 3rd, 2008

There had been rumours that this year would be better than the previous two, and with the addition of intros, music and a few words from George Bush it was. Once again, but very deservedly, Twenty Major won the award for best blog, coinciding with the recent release of his book the two prizes go [...]


irish blog awards 2008 – part 1

March 3rd, 2008

We awoke early on saturday morning, in true tourist style. I took my first photograph of the day by 9.20am, of Andy eating his very tasty croissant in a small café down by the quay. After breakfast we began taking photos for real. Heading to Temple Bar, Grafton Street and St. Stephen’s Green.

Walking really is [...]


irish blog awards – the night before

March 1st, 2008

It’s 2am and I’m on Andy’s lovely laptop in the hostel. Having spent almost 4hrs on the bus from Belfast we were pretty tired and in desperate need of restroom facilities, so grateful of the fact that we had to get a separate bus from the airport to the city centre.
Once we arrived we headed [...]

He wasn’t too impressed with my ‘i’m blogging this’ t-shirt.
So he took my camera from my hands and took this photo of himself, Ian Archer and me:

Later Stuart Bailie, Terri Hooley, Gary Lightbody and Joe Echo sang Gloria by Van Morrison:

This was followed by a set by Iain Archer

This was [...]


nebraska revisited

February 22nd, 2008

I first listened to Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska album a few weeks ago. I tried hard to like it, but I just couldn’t. Each track has a story, more often than not quite a sad story, but the style of the album isn’t for me.
However, that doesn’t really matter. What is important is that each of [...]
