Live Here, Live Now

April 28, 2008

Tweet I was in Scotland last week. While there I took a drive down memory lane – I don’t know if I was looking for something, if I was it does not exist anymore. This photo show where I lived for most of my childhood years, the hills in the background was my play ground [...]

Glasgow v’s Dublin

April 26, 2008

Tweet I just spent a few days in Glasgow. It is so clean – I live in Dublin and the streets are dirty with rubbish that people have just dropped, mostly now I don’t notice it. However when I visit some other city the contrast is startling. And it is not just the city centre, [...]

Being A Hermit on Achill Island

April 18, 2008

Tweet Most of my life I have loved living in the city. The convenience of everything nearby, loads of things to do and places to eat at. However the older I get the less I like the noise. I have a dream – and nothing quite as big as Martin Luther’s. Mind is kinda simple, [...]

Plastic Bags in Ireland

April 17, 2008

TweetI watched Newsnight earlier. The brits are complaining about plastic bags, what to do with them, how to live without them, should they tax them; as if solving the plastic bag problem will make the world all right. Get a grip.

April 14, 2008

I’m Beat By Myself

April 11, 2008

TweetI have been trying to change some habits for nearly 20 years – that is a long time to be unhappy with how I do some things. I often get up loads of enthusiasm and say to myself – okay today this will happen and that will not happen. Most times I don’t even last [...]

Getting Things Done – Or Maybe Not…

April 10, 2008

TweetI started today thinking that I would clear my desk and my email. Well the photo shows my desk at 4.30pm and I have 243 unanswered emails in my in box – 70 of them have been there for more than six months – yes they do need to be dealt with eventually but they [...]

Dublin from The Wicklow Way

April 9, 2008

TweetI took this photo from the start of the Wicklow Way a few weeks back. If you know Dublin you will see landmarks that are familiar to you – if you don’t… Some photos I look back at and like them a lot – this is one of those – though it does lose some [...]

Fruit Smoothie

April 9, 2008

TweetI discovered hidden away at the back of one of our kitchen cupboards a smoothie maker. So now for the last month I have been experimenting with making smoothies. I must admit some of my experiments have went down the sink – some mixtures of fruit together just don’t work. So as is usual for [...]

Web Hosting in Ireland

April 7, 2008

TweetOne would think that web hosting would be easy and standard. I wish it was. I am in the process of moving my own web design website today and it has disappeared in the middle of it. So I have walked away from my computer and I am sitting on the couch in the living [...]
