Honey and the balloons

I told you before how Honey loves balloons and I caught some of her playing with one this afternoon.

The Young Wan does magic with some help from her beautiful assistant Honey.

Someone broke the internet

I'VE seen this already on someones blog and I cannot remember where so sorry about that, but I happened upon it again on Flickr. Enjoy and remember not to open too many applications, pages and tabs at once...


Breaking News: All Online Data Lost After Internet Crash

Yobs

THERE I was trying unsuccessfully to take pics of this perfect line of swans as they swam up the Liffey under the bridges. The low light ensured that I wasn't able to capture the parent and it's six cygnets as I would have liked. So I decided to go one better and film it.

As I was filming I realised that a lad standing on the boardwalk was chucking rubbish at the beautiful line. What a gobsh*te. While they swam onto the next bridge and then took off I thought it would have been more appropriate for them to fly out of the water then and clout the lads with their wings. Maybe the next time. So here's the beautiful and guilty parties.

Discover Ireland/All these highs and lows

I was watching the excellent Discover Ireland/All these highs and lows ad and thought if only. So here's a little quickly mashed together version with images taken mostly in the last couple of weeks which is probably more true to the actual summer.

Joan as Police Woman in Vicar Street

I WENT to see Joan As Police Woman the other night in Vicar Street, excellent show altogether. It is a strange venue with all the seats practically piled up on top of each other. But it is intimate which is great. I imagine it is intimidating for a performer but Joan as Policewoman had the crowd eating of their hands.

I got some videos and some pics. So here you go.

Do Charlie for me

Friday fun

SOME Friday fun. Sesame Street, the first one is for Tawdrey. I remember years ago she told me about this after babysitting her niece who is now a young woman in her 20s. And I found it on YouTube.



The next one is for Tetra - Johnny Cash



And more Cash - not in black!

They killed Elmo

THIS is more than slightly disturbing. How could anyone do this to a cute little Elmo. Damien don't look. Via Boing Boing.

Movie slideshow of some pics

I AM all delighted with myself, I figured out how to make a movie slide show and here it is. Let me know what you think. It is a rough first version I didn't put much thought into the photographs I choose. But I have many ideas for things to bore you with in the future.

The Worst Burglar Ever

The worst burglar ever, well according to the title. Considering the guffaws coming from me at 4o seconds, 52 seconds and 157 seconds into the clip, I have to agree he has to be up there with the worst.
