This Year I Tried to Grow Lettuce...

It still has not moved beyond the seed leaf stage.

This, seen in a West Cork garden is an inspiration
to do better next time.

Eating Out in West Cork

Spent two days seriously eating our way round West Cork last week.
While official restaurant reviews are not my brief here, I'll make
this short and sweet.

West Cork is Heaven for anybody who likes fresh fish.
There are many mid-week special deals in chi-chi hotels
that make a trip away from city smoke very appealing indeed.

I think I've gained weight...

Giving Oneself and Fellow Bakers a Pat on the Back

Recently I was asked not to put myself down in a chat room.
Little did the poster know me.
Anybody who has lived in France for more than five days develops
a glorious attitude known as "La Frime".

Je suis frimeuse et j'en suis contente.

In fact I have been patting myself on the back all week,
as I finally mastered photo link code for various blogs.
At last I can send congrulations to friends an fellow
bloggers around the Internet.

Hope they are "Frimeurs" too...

Irish Blog Awards 2008,

Guten Tag!




The Internet has made photography a very sociable activity.
Many people have helped me over the past few year and I've
brought tips and ideas together here:
