La Habana!!!

Hola de Habana!
¿Como estas? Everything here is going well, apart from our plane being an hour late, our taxi dropping us at the wrong address, the wonderful family from the apartment we entered bringing us to the right street, but to the house of someone they were touting for, getting to our original destination and […]

Puzzling House Warming!

How do lads and lassies? I’m finally ensconcing myself in my new abode. It’s proving difficult as there’s something to do every weekend, and when there’s not I’m too shattered to pack up my life and move it next door.

Summer Solstice at the Hill of Tara

Just got some pictures of the summer solstice evening that friends and I went out to a few weeks back and thought I’d put up some photos. Gonna be putting up photos from over the last few months, cos I’ve just got my hands on a few lately, due to not having my own camera, […]
