Mullingar along the Royal canal yesterday morning.

  1. This looks like the perfect flashback scene in a movie where the main character is remembering fragments of some traumatic experience. Just the right amount of fog.

  2. Hmmm… anyone think those walls look suspiciously like the exterior of St.Patrick’s College (MU south campus)

  3. “In Mullingar that night I rested limbs so weary
    Started by daylight me spirits bright and airy
    Took a drop of the pure to Keep me heart from sinking.”

  4. I went to a village just outside Mullingar for a site visit for a project I was working on. A contractor had left the keys for the building on the top of the wheel of his van outside the building. I spent ages going around the van feeling the top of each tire trying to find the keys and no doubt looked very suspicious. Lady parked beside the van rolled down the window and I expected to get an earful, instead she very helpfully said “hey maybe what you’re looking for fell behind the tire” completely the opposite of what I was expecting, and everyone else in the village was very polite and full of smiles. Lovely part of the country.
