I had a massive Sunday lunch then walked it all off afterwards.

This is the old Bass Centre. It used to be a really cool warehouse with every kind of electronic and acoustic bass guitar and other instruments. It was there for at least 30 years then they moved

Now they're converting it to apartments

<<<---- clicky for the full size version

The rest of the pics from my walk around where I live are here:

I think it is a very successful evocation of a place. Yes.

I took this photo in the pub yesterday, then emailed it to Flickr from my phone. Which I thought was quite clever.

We didn't finish the crossword

On Friday the 7th of July, Mc Canns Fish Shop on North Frederick St closed its doors after 36 years of selling fish to people from Dublin’s North Inner City. When asked about his retirement Mr Mc Cann said ‘I’m delighted. Even the Great Train robbers only got thirty years’. Thoughout the day well wishers dropped in to buy fish for the dinner and to say goodbye. Selling his last piece of fish he said ‘I hope you are more lucky than the woman who bought my first piece of fish. Her first husband was shot. It seems he offended someone and was shot in the leg. Later he died from septicemia. She then went on to have another relationhsip but he was shot too. The man who did it was convicted last week. So I hope you are lucklier than my first customer’. A passerby asked ‘ is it your last day?’. ‘It is’ he said with a broad smile on his face .’At least’, he added, ‘ it’s my last day in the shop. I hope it’s not my last day on earth.’ With that, he sold his last fish – two pieces of cod.

36 years in a fish shop is bound to have some effect on you.

I bet his fish puns are second to none

maybe I should ask him if he wants to join TCTE - I mean he'll have a lot of time on his hands now.

That sky's amazing

That final sunburst pic is

So was this 'corporate entertainment'

Or a sneaky break away?

Who's the young lady hiccup?

Sovietpop - awwr Mr McCann after 36 years. Ending of a bit of local history, bit sad in a way. Get him on here!

Went over for work, but the races was after work with one of the "young ladies" from the office (and most of her extended family). Was a totally cool evening
