Commuting to work per shanks's pony



The dead fox near Ratmines today.
 
Blue skies, sharp crisp air over and in Dublin today.
This blogger's bicycle was in the wrong place so instead of taking the bus or tram it was an ideal morning for a walk.
Dublin's Palmerston Road must be one of the most expansive streets in the capital.
It's a strange feeling being a pedestrian and passing cars going in the same direction. Queues and queues of slow-moving vehicles.
A qucik glance in the windows and you see all sorts of activities: women putting make-up on, men reading papers, telephoning and picking their noses, though not all at the same time.
And just before Rathmines a dead fox on the ground.
To think it all began circa 13.5 billion years ago.
