Commentary

(Summary blog only.   Last full blog was Day 0368).

Travelling back to the UK for a few days with the family over Christmas.   The airport was way busier today than this time last year, when we were still sort-of in the pandemic.   Hoping the onward travel arrangements in the UK will work out OK as baggage handlers, Border Force and railways all said to be on strike today.   Roll on Christmas!

Today’s photos (click to enlarge)

Very wet in Malahide this morning.   No shelter at the bus stop so waited under the canopy outside Seomra Tae – hope they didn’t mind! Looking like I need a bit of sunshine!   Still – only 12 weeks till Spring!
On the bus.   Very wet and at bit slow round Swords shopping centre – last minute Christmas shoppers panic buying, I guess
