Ninigret 22′ Almost ready to go.
Here she is almost ready for final fit out and engine installation. All of the painting is complete at this stage and now all the very careful installation of final trim and deck hardware is about to begin. Any mistakes at this stage can be very annoying and time consuming to fix.
There are deep lockers either side of the engine well that are ideal for fenders and boat hooks etc. They also house…

Flowers and Aquaduct in Ballydehob
On a beautiful October afternoon in Ballydehob and the last thing I needed to worry about was swans, unlike an unfortunate day in 2004 when they didn’t like me taking their photos.

How to fight microplastic pollution with magnets
How to fight microplastic pollution with magnets
Good News Notes:
“As a child, Fionn Ferreira spent hours exploring the coastline near his hometown of Ballydehob in south-west Ireland. But the more time he spent on the sheltered, shingle-strewn coves nearby, he grew increasingly shocked by the large amounts of plastic litter he found strewn across the beach and in the sea.
“It didn’t look nice to me – the coloured bits of plastic all along the…

Dancing the summer in in Ballydehob., David Shanahan
Yet another in the series of people discovering the tango in rural Ireland. In this case, we see farmers and their wives plus a number of their animals dancing in the summer by attempting to use this new fangled form of dancing.

Hold on to your Sadhana..
May all beings be well
May all beings be Happy
May all beings be free from suffering
Lokaha Samastaha Sukhino Bhavantu
This is one of the Prayers of the Yogin. To dedicate our practice to the alleviation of all suffering, starting with ourselves.
As Yoga practitioners we are blessed to have our practice to support us in staying aligned with wisdom and compassion. We need these tools more than ever, as we move out of covid into conflict . We are continually being asked to dig deep within to see how we can truly show up for life in the best way. It is not easy, and a friend reminded me recently that we can take time out when we need to, rest our nervous systems- it does not mean that we do not care. Then when we are rested and home within ourselves we can do what is needed.
Hold on to your Sadhana.
When the world feels out of control..
When the night feels too dark..
When the fears come with sharp teeth.
When you are confused, lost, bewildered, angry, fearful, sad, grieving, irritated.
When the light doesn't seem to be able to shine.
When the intensity of the maya is too much.
Hold on to your Sadhana.
It is your refuge, your rock, your saddle to ride the horse. It is the sanctuary where you get to be with whatever is moving you.
Trust that.
We are all in it and bound to be stirred.
Your Sadhana reminds you of your true nature, which is Love.
Your Sadhana holds the Shakti of your teachers, your community, those that love you fully.
Your Sadhana is God/Goddess in action.
Let it hold you.
