Happy Birthday To Harrison

Harrison was "stoked" with his new Kona mountain bike he got for his birthday.

Trip to Marseille

Had to fly to Marseille for work. It was a really clear day when I flew out, and the view from my window was amazing.

Gatwick at Dawn.......

                                          

                           

Flying out over Brighton.

Got to the departure lounge just in time to see the sun set when I flew home the next day.

The Reek

Willie sent me this picture his friend took of "Craigh Patrick" in Westport Ireland. Locally known as The Reek, it looks magestic in the snow

Matt hugs his friend......

Matt and Jeanette came back from the  GT last night and Matt decided to shout "Ralph" very loudly all over the patio.  Once his appetite for pavement pizza had been satiated he then spent the next few hours hugging his porcaline pall...............

Nige fell asleep after a hard night wetting the baby's head.

Nige went back to Matt & Jeanette's after the GT.The cat took a liking to his bear head.

I woke up to Snow this morning!

  Which normally would be great but may mean I get stuck here in Ireland another night as Knock airport may not be flying.......

Sunset over Clew Bay

You can make out Craigh Patrick in the background. This is the first attempt to use my fone's camera in panorama mode.........still some practice needed I think!

Contraception for playing away?

A condom for the Irish Rover!!!

Irish Contraception

I took this in a loo in the Republic of Ireland. Typical Irish humour, I don't know that curry flavoured condoms would be that popular though?

Ireland - westport
