Gremlin’s Fireside Chat

Coming back to Donabate from Swords Co Dublin around 14:00 when just before Newbridge demesne there was a police diversion, loads of blue flashing lights redirecting traffic down to the Turvey road.

A couple of hours later I came across this http://www.rte.ie/news/2014/1010/651435-dublin-donabate-rta/ – which was backed up from chatter down the local supermarket talking about how the Golf Club (which one there are a number here) has been robbed and in the get-away the driver plowed into an oncoming car whilst overtaking some others. Apparently there is a lot of Damage. Both Drivers had to be cut out of their respective cars … a lady had 2 broken legs was hospitalized along-side a baby or young girl. The “Get Away Driver” may have had at least one leg amputated.

Interesting times indeed in rural Ireland.

Today is “accounts” day – its the day where as a contractor I go through my “in box” of bills, accounts etc and do everything that’s necessary to enable my accountant to perform their arcane magic and keep the collector general happy. Anyway you can imagine my surprise where secreted among the pile of bills I discovered this:

Made me smile a lot.
