Yes – it’s ‘Sign’ season again. I’ll make an excuse that any season is, in fact, ok to put up another selection of signs from Ireland. But not just signs: I use the opportunity to add in a few peculiarities which we encounter on our wanderings. Here’s one I saw only yesterday – a roadside stove! I’m not sure how much it would be adding to our global warming . . .



Good advice abounds – and it’s certainly pertinent that we should remember to wash our hands, particularly if we are off to see the Seven Wonders. During these Covid times ‘food trucks’ have proliferated on our streets, and in the country. The one below is a fine, shining example – and offers ‘cures’ as well as cocktails, while the lower coffee stop must be situated in one of the finest viewpoints on the Beara Peninsula.



Always time for a chat in Ireland! And – a reminder that Christmas is nearly upon us . . .



Everywhere we go, there’s a double-take to be taken. In the city, I felt that there was something a bit pagan in this outfitter’s window . . .






The hairy lady artist, above, topically reminds us to wear our masks. Personally, I welcome the colours on the streets: hopefully we can always have cheerful moments in troubled times.


Getting the official message across always has to be done in both languages here in Ireland. I have to admit that, in this case, the Irish version seems something of a mouthful! A few more images to finish off this little exploration: they speak for themselves . . .







Love the bubbles especially!!

An eclectic collection as usual – it’s the 7 Wonders for me – were you near Fore? I also like the elegantly dressed stag.

Yes, Amanda. The bar is in Sallymount, not far from Fore Abbey, Co Westmeath. And I, too, had an antler head-dress long ago and far away!

Thank you, Patrick. But the accolades have to go to the artists: for me ‘street art’ is a wonderful, vibrant medium of expression.

Roy, it was closed when we last visited – due to Covid. but, hopefully, that is a temporary situation.
