Happy birthday mam

My mam would have been 82 today. I hope she's drinking a glass of wine somewhere.

Ireland in August

I was in Ireland in August with Tris and Marta. Here are the photos for those of you not in facebook:

With Jim and Anne in Brogan's. 

Playing with his father's little soldiers.

This cat always came to see us when mam was alive. It made the kids' day when he turned up again this time.

"Look mum, we're eating healthy food!"

Have you noticed how full of animals Ireland is?

In Dublin's natural history museum with cousin Cian who kindly played tour guide that day.

Stephen's Green, Dublin.
