Quite proud that this shot made Pix.ie’s longlist for 2009 Photo of the Year. I took it with my compact while cursing and dreaming of a Canon 450D. Hopefully that dream will become reality this year.

2FM has a new schedule and Rick is slotted in from 12 till 3. So far so good, velvety voice.

The first Irish Stew Championships hits Sligo this March as part of the ‘SÓ Sligo‘ festival.

Andy Clarke on why ignorance is bliss and continues to sing the praises of designing ‘in the browser’.

I want to learn to dance this year. Just no idea what type. Dance Ireland kick off all sorts of lessons this month.

It was a very good year

2009 was the perfect antidote to a pretty awful 2008.

It certainly wasn’t perfect but last year was truly fabulous in comparison.

I’m not going to wish for anything. I’m not going to make a list of resolutions and promises. I’m just going to enjoy where I am here and now in Graignamanagh, Co. Kilkenny and from here on I’m going to live. Really live.

It’s all we’re for, right?
