Spent time in Ireland and had a wide range of experiences. Some of my images from Ireland are here, a social commentary if you like. Stunning landscapes with the greenest grass I have ever seen; if I was a cow, I would want to graze here. In contrast, we found the global financial crisis had hit hard, things were very expensive and some locals had lost their spark. A highlight from the south was driving the Ring of Kerry, get a nice car and have some fun. Also, the Cliffs of Moher were breathtaking; walking along a cliff top edge is not for the faint hearted. Trinity College, the Guinness Factory and cozy bars were a Dublin highlight. Locals travel from the south to Enniskillen to do the groceries; prices are so much cheaper in the north. In Northern Ireland, we found Belfast is under construction with lots of new development, make sure you visit the Titanic Quarter and see the shipyard where the Titanic was built. Samson and Goliath the Harland and Wolff cranes, which were named after the Biblical figures Samson and Goliath, dominate the Belfast skyline and are landmark structures of the city. Worth a look. To the north, take a drive along the Antrim Coast, totally spectacular, especially on a fine day. The Giant’s Causeway is also a must see and walk down to. Oh, always pack a brolly, you will need it.

We have all experienced it, that panic of needing to find a park in a hurry so you aren’t late for that meeting. Now in Brisbane, we park pretty orderly, nice straight white lines, space between vehicles. When shopping, some proud motorists even park their car a long walk away (rain, hail or shine) from the entry to the shops to avoid shopping trolley dings! I heard on the radio last week that someone from Brisbane was fined for having their rear bumper hang out over their parking space. Ridiculous.
Well there is another way to park, we could do as the Italians and French do. Just park ANYWHERE!
Next time you are parking your car, please park it in a good spot!
