I finally finished the last few frames of the film (FP4) that had been lurking in my Yashica T4 since Faro, which seems a very long time ago now (it was last October) and, even better, I found some time to print some of them.

Not much else to report from The Liberties, except to say it is awfully cold right now. The place is heaving with tourists for Easter weekend - I read that the seaside towns of Portstewart and Portrush, just down the road from us, were log-jammed with cars yesterday and today. The 'car cruise' scene is a big thing over Easter - young people come from all over Ireland (and Scotland) to show off their motors and try to avoid getting pulled over by the local police for minor infringements. If I had the energy/interest to spend an hour in the traffic to go about a mile it might well be worth wasting some film on, but I decided to pass.
