Snow Pictures

Snow Prints

Whats the story here I wonder...and was there a happy ending?


Snow Trees


The snow makes everywhere look magical - even Mile End!



Snow Heart


You have to love snow - not just for the snowballs, snowmen and days off school but for the sounds of the city under a blanket of white and the conversations with complete strangers on traffic islands just because it snowed!

Speak Irish on Facebook Day

I was racking my brain to think of something to put in my Facebook status to honour the day and to show that I had retained some bit of the Gaelige from school...this is all I came up with:


Roz...remembers the first question she learned in Irish at school...."An bhfuil cead agam dul go dtí an leithreas?"...nothing exciting or eloquent - but pretty essential if you wanted permission to go to the toilet...

Remembrance

Its the 11th minute...
of the
11th hour...
on the
11th day ...
of the
11th month...
..2 minutes silence...
apart from
Patrick...who is wondering what its all about...
"Is it the
Queen's birthday?" he asks
It might as well be ...It means
nothing to him...
He
can't remember what day of the week it is...
and for him... much is better off
forgotten
