Wibble and Wobble

Ahh would you look! You’d want to have a heart of stone not to want these two, I’d take them in a second if I had the space.

Wibble and Wobble are best friends who were rescued from the streets together. Wibble is a beautiful young tabby male boy and Wobble is a very pretty black girl. They are both only six or seven months old. They love each other dearly so we would love to find them a home together…f you are interested in adopting please contact our Field of Dreams Sanctuary in Kilfinane, Co. Limerick on 063 91110, visitors welcome 11am to 3pm, Monday to Saturday. We ask for a minimum donation of 80.00 euro per cat to help cover some of the cost of veterinary care.

There was something odd about Dublin this morning. Everyone was operating in slow motion. People who walked to work, started out at their usual rushed pace, but quickly realised speed is not the way this morning, and reduced to a cautious ice-avoidance dance.

I figured out fast it is safer - for where I live, to walk on the road and avoid the footpath completely. It was the first day back at work for a lot of people. Very few were without gloves, many had a hot coffee with both hands clasped around the paper cup. Of course it has been like this for the past while, but I had the joy of not stepping out in it.

Happy New Year.

By the way, if we have had a very cold and icy winter does that mean we can have a wonderful warm summer also? I tweeted the above pictures this morning. Dublin looks great in white, but it is a very cautious white indeed!

My brother took part (again) in the Manchester Great Run, he ran once again for a charity and raised a nice bit of dosh for them. Grats! And I promise to take part some time in the near future. Pics are here (You need to be logged into Flickr and one of my flickr friends to view some of the pictures).

Schmap: Dublin Photo Short-list

I’ve not heard of Schmap before, but they have asked for one of my flickr photos to be included in their Dublin Guide, while it is nice to be asked something like this I would question the reasoning for selecting this photo, but I imagine, there is method to their madness.
