Tiki Tiki!!( again)

 I've done a few posts already about my love for Tiki designs. Its been one of my most popular posts ever, here on my wee blog. (See here!). So when the theme of this years Feile na Bealtaine parade was announced, as 'Masks', I knew immediately what I wanted to do.


For a few years now, I have worked with the local boy's school here in Dingle, designing and making their Feile parade costumes and props. I thought the theme of Tiki masks would suit the boys down to the ground.

Blessing of the Boats

I thought I would stick up a little video (very little, only 1:04 mins!), I made today of a beautiful tradition here in my town. The Blessing of the Boats is an old Dingle tradition, and you know I like my traditions!

St. Patricks Day Parade in Dingle!

 The weather held out for the first part of the parade, and then went pretty dismal. So we didn't follow it around like we normally do. The parade was, well, as only a parade in rural Ireland can be. The child said it was bigger than last years. Always good to see an improvement. Fun day had by all, despite the rain

Wrens Day in Dingle 2012

A bit belated, but have just posted a few pics of The Wren onto Flickr. 

Our first time taking part in the Wren; a day of music, marching, mischief, and a lot of drinking. 

A completely random post with random photos

 I used to do a lot more walking, I used to do a lot more photography, I used to post more random photographs on this blog. I want to get back into walking, and photography, and posting more random photos on the blog. It'll mean even less computer time, more erratic posts, tweetings, etc, but what the hay. I need to walk more, and do more random things.
