the location and my home for two and a half weeks this summer, working on rebuilding a bridge over a river, somewhere in northern spain!

Rachel&David

there have been elusive sightings of this couple in various locations throughout the world. Last seen in the foothills of the French Pyrenees. Of David, needs step by step instructions for use of electronic equipment. Of Rachel, exercise caution upon approach; dangerous elbows, lethal right hook below the belt.

Gros point blank, Donostia

Cumbrian Easter

' Sometimes in snows in April' said good old Prince many Aprils ago. Well, it did this year up Cumbria way. Still, Spring comes; the little lambs (cute) and the cowslips.

The Liver Birds

Oh joy! went to see the present Champions of Europe play a league game against Bolton over Easter. Well, the footy game wasn't great (1-0 to the 'pool), but the Liver birds!....
And check it out, how many are nosshing up big time on burgers/pies/chips pre-match, and t'was the same after the game too.

Sauf'en'-on -Sea

ah, when i was a young un', i remember days like these. The seaside two miles walk away; losing all my coppers on the slot machines. All great!

musings on museum

well, was down london way over easter break and as i love museums.... (was in the natural history AND science AND Victoria & Albert!!!)
of interest for me:a rock (crystal really) that 'glows' under UV light; some fine symmetry from mughal times out of india; RJ Mitchell (designer of the Spitfire) - of interest is the sculpture, it's made from water-worn slate pebbles; a very funny pic of mamma polar bear not waiting for her offspring as she's hungry and food? it's 40 miles away to broken pack ice.
and i found some who are struck by museums even more than me, kids.

St.Patrick's.2006

Lots of people talking, (hi neil!) but noone to me.
So i went dancing, and nobody would join me.
iwonderwhy?

Fourtunate One!

Life is so very, very short. So, to celebrate one, Finola's, led to special days at the end of July last year. I know a fool who missed it. I think we can see above those who knew not to miss 'great days', and the tales of the clan O'Brien.
