Snow

Exactly one month too early...25th November and it is snowing in Ireland. Nothing impressive in Cork, guess we're too close to the ocean for that, but enough to have some nice winterlandscapes on the way to Mallow. Had a front seat view on the early Cork-Galway bus to work. And before when I passed St. Lukes around 7, they were just erecting a big Christmas tree...Definitely some Christmas spirit in the air today so.
Am all set for the weekend...am leaving early...as I started at eight this morning and I'm here all on my own. Alex and Colette in Cork City for Annual Meeting of the Energy Agencies, Bill off. Finished the thing I wanted to finish and am ready to go so. Have posh dinner tonight for work and we definitely go out afterwards. Plan is to take the 7.25 bus tomorrow morning to Galway. Can't complain so....live in Ireland is still great.
Enjoy the weekend!!!!!

Short update

Realise I haven't updated this blog for a while...everyone probably thinks I'm still dealing with the loss of our cat...euh...not really the case...am happier than ever in Cork. Met some great people recently and am having a ball overhere. Some crazy weekends behind me, more of the same coming up. Will be Christmas and New Year very very soon (am not flying home for the celebrations, but everyone is more than welcome to come and see me overhere).
