Normally I am a very sensible driver. I try to obey the rules of the road and use roundabouts correctly.
Last night after spending a couple of hours at a Kells hotel, where I handed out name badges, I got in my car and drove home. The roads from the Kells hotel are nice [...]
I was up at the crack of dawn this morning to let Gracie out to the toilet, but I still managed to be late picking my mum up for a walk as I had forgotten about the clocks going forward.
We went to White Park Bay and Gracie squeaked with excitement for most of our walk. [...]

Our travels started in Belfast where we said farewell to Gracie and then caught a bus to Dublin airport. From Dublin we travelled to Madrid, then to [...]

We took a lot of photos. About 500 with the digital camera plus the six rolls of film that I shot with my Olympus Trip 35.
Some of them are on Flickr now. Later I will scan and add some of my [...]
Back again and boy did I miss Gracie! We took a couple of photos of her and set up a Gracie shrine wherever we stayed.
