Weary of it all ....
Many of us are at the end of our tether with all the construction / road works going on all over Lucan.
Much as we want to believe it, it does not look like any of the jobs supposed to be completed by November, will be finished.
On top of that, roads are being dug up all over the place, and last weekend saw chaos as lights were out at the Esker Church junction. Further traffic light problems seem to arise regularly near the Penny Hill junction.
SOL Fest!
Well done to the Society for Old Lucan, on their very first Sol Fest on Saturday last. We heard some very favourable reports on the day.
Some of the participants in Lucan Demesne on Saturday last.
St. Mary's Camera Soiree
The Camera Soiree's 13th photographic exhibition will take place in the parish centre on Saturday 15th November from 6pm to 7.30 pm and on Sunday 16th from 10am to 1.30pm. We look forward to a big attendance. The exhibition will be available to view on the Soiree's YouTube channel after the close of the exhibition. The link to view the exhibition on YouTube is https://youtu.be/dJUNXaxpYWo.
This week Joe has submitted a photograph of the current state of part of what was once our beautiful village green. One wonders will this work ever be finished and if there will be a blade of grass or a tree in it when it is!
Frances sent in a photograph of her friendly squirrel and Anna continued her travels around the west of Ireland, this time sending in a great shot of big waves in Achill.
Held over from last week are some of Josie's photographs taken from the roof garden of a building at Wilton Park. She got some exciting shots of Dublin city skyline particularly the one that gets the Aviva stadium and the repainted Poolbeg chimneys into the same shot!
Josie also submitted a shot that captures what must be the effects of global warming, showing the autumnal dead leaves at the base of a tree but also new growth and in November!
At the time of writing the temperature is +15 degrees. People of a certain vintage will remember when we were dealing with frost every morning on our car windscreens at this time of year!
Until next week stay safe!
