Say hello, wave goodbye.....ships in the night - 8th January 2010

Benny is back from Singapore (watch out Dublin) and Darren and Owen will be traveling in the next month so it is the last time these four will be out together for a while!! Some sliding and slipping was done in the road, a trip to the BS and then the Horse for a late drink and on to a party in Neil's!

The night of the big freeze - 7th of January 2010

After taking a fall off my bike on the way to work the weather conditions got more severe. Emmet and I took a walk down by the canal (which was frozen solid) and fed the swans. I took about 50 pictures so today was the most difficult to pick just one,I decided on the traffic lights, people thought I was strange taking photos of the lights and I had to work on the timing and get both the red and green while lighting - the reason I like this is the cobwebs on the lights are frozen! I cheated and used my second fave pic as my profile pic!!!

This is what we do at work......... only when it snows & buses are canceled!! - 6th January 2010

Snow and ice are a constant in January photos so far and not a guinea pig or husband in sight.........watch this space. It was also my brother's 30th today and because of the weather I will not get home this weekend.

New beginnings - 5th January 2010

Steph insisted on washing our dishes while on an overnight stay!! Bless you Steph.

Drink & ice = not a good mix - 4th January 2010

Because I was going back to work after the Christmas break I was having trouble getting to sleep and Emmet was restless too, he looked out the window and saw a man falling on the footpath, he kept struggling to get up and kept falling down when he got up again he banged his head. as he fell for the third time We ran downstairs at which point a couple had picked him up. Em called the ambulance and they fixed him up in the back of the ambulance then drove him home!! Better for him than spending a night in A & E.

Neromunda - 3rd January 2010

Francis, Andrew & Emmet started the morning playing Necromunda (this was a game they played in their teens and Francis found a used one in a charity shop for €2.00). I was confused as there was not movement squares but measurement is done by line of sight and measured in inches. We had sausages and lots of cheese (too many gifts of cheese over Christmas).

Allotment, Fire and Bike Journey - 2nd January 2010

Not the prettiest picture but, last night there was a fire in the college so I went to investigate - this is also where, fingers crossed, we will get an allotment in the next couple of months. Before visiting St. Kevin's I picked up my bike from the repair shop, it was in getting checked out after my little crash in December!

Clogher Road - 1st January 2010

As the New Year began the snow started - there were no buses on New Year's day so walked in and met Steph in town for some much needed 'getting out of the house' time.
