Leixlip, Ireland. Forever a Dub.
Not wealthy enough to be considered eccentric, just getting through life as best as one can.
Posts generally good things, and sometimes reactions to bad.

Images unless reposted or otherwise stated are all taken by myself.
I find in lieu of high levels of cleverness or bravery, a lower level of care or embarrassment makes ones decisions more fun.

As time moves on, I find not worrying about what others think, allows me more freedom, which conversely is then voted by others as bravery.... Weird. 🤔

Just go for It 🤗

I don't know, but I now know it was before my school was built 😂

Hi @darach.bsky.social , found this photo of the five lamps, North Strand.

Now I know what was there before the school was built, but now I need to know what was there before the houses were 😂😎

Last night in McGrattan off Baggot street.

Just having family around, made for some great stories and laughs.

Sounds like pure bliss.

Reckon it is.
So, embrace it, enjoy the silence before the madness.

God knows what mad-cap ideas my mind sifts through. It's fun.

It's a cold night, might as well have breakfast.
My choice was Coffee or Hot Chocolate.. I went for coffee. Guess I'm up now.

(psst, 4am here too)

Good morning to the "Why am I awake club"

I'm putting on the kettle, might as well feel good about not sleeping.

(sorry, had to delete 1st post, bad bad typo/grammer, kind of highlights the awake, but not, mode)

Not so sure, the flats and houses about, are all as a result of the bombs. So open fields hard to imagine. I plan to spend a bit of time tonight looking at maps/photos and see what I find.

Love little inspired treasure hunts like this..

Never told, but I believe it was one of the WW2 bomb sites in the North Strand.

All of the above is true. Though can I add: "thinking"

Thinking is like pre-editing, or note assembling. It's the jumbling up and sifting of ideas and scenarios that only sometimes make it out of the head and onto paper.

Bravo to those who can just "write" - I need to think long, then it flows

Went for a beautiful nature walk. Took a lot of time to appreciate colours and sounds...

Take care over there. 💙

Saw many on the northern Spanish Camino.

Corn storage is what we learned.

€2 to basically get from anywhere to anywhere even over multiple bus/train/luas.

Worth every bit, especially if the connections align timely.
(sad face, they don't always)
