Another Bird friend. This beauty sat with me while I ate breakfast and I shared bits of my muffin with it.

Day in February by Steven Sharpe aesthetic

Lyrics, as far as I can make out: I walk alone to meet him in Eyre Square, I don’t know why crowds of people make me scared. I can see his breath - it’s floating in the air. He lands a kiss, I blush, an old lady stares. He says “your hands are always cold” He says “warm them in my coat” I wrap them in the folds He says “you’re like a fucking ghost”

Head in his hands, Is buried in my beard. Soft and comfortable both sitting in one chair. We’ll plan something nice if we make it to a year He plucks a hair, I flinch and knock his beer, He says “my trousers are fucking soaked” I laugh “go dry them by the stove” He said “there’s diamonds in the coal” I say “go on, propose so”

He will never know that day I loved him so In his underwear, he was butter and burnt toast Oooooh ooooh Ooooh oooooooh

There he stood my love There is good enough There stood in love There love enough There stood my love I’ll never let him go There love enough There stood in love I’ll never let him go I’ll never let him go Oooooh Where is he now? Oooooh Where is he now? Oooooh Where is he now? Oooooooohhh where is he Where is he now?

Ireland: Exploring Galway

Our Galway adventure was a bit of an unscripted day. I had done a little research and had planned to hike at Connemara National Park a couple hours west of Galway but honestly we were exhausted and needed a bit of a relaxing day. So we decided to head to the Latin Quarter and visit some locations that locals had told us about. Our first stop was the Spanish Arch. This a remnant of the ancient…

Work Placement Trip to Inis Oirr

Travelling to Galway

After getting all of my things together, I then went to get the number 40 bus. This bus brought me to O’Connell Bridge. I then walked to customhouse to meet up with the class. Standing around for a few minutes gave me the idea to go and buy some food for the journey to Galway. Brendan and I then walked to the shop that was located in the bus station (Busaras). After returning…

TREE OF GOLD AT THE CENTRAL BANK IN DAME STREET [WILL NOT BE RELOCATED TO THE NORTH WALL]-160310 by William Murphy Via Flickr: TREE OF GOLD AT THE CENTRAL BANK IN DAME STREET [WILL NOT BE RELOCATED TO THE NORTH WALL] Photographed in August 2016 Update 18th. February 2020 - Until today I was unaware that in August 2016 it had been announced that this sculpture would remain in situ despite speculation that it was to be relocated to the new Central Bank complex at North Wall Quay. For many years I thought that the sculpture outside the Central Bank was the ‘Money Tree’ but it is officially named "Crann an Oir" which means "Tree of Gold”. In 2015 the Central Bank announced that it was to spend €500,000 to move its iconic golden ball from outside headquarters on Dame Street in Dublin to its new base at North Wall Quay. Soon after publishing some photographs of the sculpture I was contacted by a number of people indicating that it could not possibly cost so much to relocate a sculpture. I contacted the bank and they advised me that the cost included much more than just the removal of the sculpture. Later a journalist contact supplied the following quote: "It is believed the estimated cost was accurate, despite a Central Bank official dismissing it as ridiculous at the time". The sculpture, by the late Eamonn O'Doherty, was chosen in 1991 as the result of a competition. Éamonn O'Doherty (1939 – 4 August 2011), born in Derry, Northern Ireland, was an Irish sculptor, painter, printmaker, photographer and lecturer. He was best known for his sculptures in public places. He died, aged 72, in Dublin. Well known sculptures by Éamonn O'Doherty include the Quincentennial Sculpture on Eyre Square in Galway and the famous Anna Livia installation. O'Doherty also won awards for his paintings, amongst other on the Irish Exhibition of Living Art. An exhibition of his photographs from the collection of the Irish Traditional Music Archive toured around the United States.
