A few years ago some friends and I were on a train to Galway city, successfully convincing a bunch of foreigners that we, Ireland, had progressed and we were no longer a backward country. We were the children of the Celtic Tiger. The cosmopolitan lunatic offspring of (possibly) the last generation of hard-working Irish people. With one deft announcement however, our house of cards collapsed onto the formica Iarnród Eireann (Irish Rail) table top between our seats… “Ladies & Gentlemen…. Sorry for the delay…. we’ll be moving again shortly… there’s sheep on the line”.
In much the same way (okay, so there’s not much of a link here, but work with me!) … I’ve been knocking my head against a brick wall with this redesign. I finally figured out what was causing the site’s loss of speed – some poorly written menu code. So, while the site is now running at a healthy speed, it’s currently without a menu – so I have to make one from scratch. If anyone needs me I’ll be bludgeoning myself to death with a keyboard.
In other news, my cousin’s band, The Gorgeous Colours, are launching their album on Saturday night in Whelan’s. (That’s today. Time flies!) Do join us – it’ll be whopper.
That’s all for now,
