I spent the last few days in Dungarvan, staying in the Park Hotel with my family. It’s a really nice town, small enough that you can walk around it in half an hour but plenty of places to eat and drink. I took my camera of course and almost always shot in b/w mode with [...]
Well used and loved Lego may break and get squashed but the non-broken bits can be washed and dried and used again by a new generation.
Last Saturday I went to the Coderdojo party in the NSC with my son Adam to see what it was all about. We arrived late and all the pizza was gone but there were loads of balloons for the younger kids to play with! The adults and older kids watched a 3D Makerbot printer demo. [...]
