the ticket man
was writing out tickets the other day when we went to Buncrana. Buncrana is a pay and display town which means you pay for the amount of time you need to park your vehicle, take the receipt and place it on your dashboard so it can be seen. The pay and display machine is the box with the P on it. They are placed all over town at various places. The ticket man does his rounds and if someone’s time has expired he enters the violation in his computer and takes a photo of the ticket that he has left on the windscreen so there is proof he left the ticket and there is no misunderstanding.

concern
When I walked pass this cement truck, the guy you see was climbing up the ladder. Further down the road, I happened to look back and this is what I saw. There were workers renovating the building on the right which is going to be a restaurant and no one seemed concerned. I imagine the guy knew what he was doing but he should be following some kind of protocol. It doesn't look good when this is all you see.

sewage pipe system
The pipe and crane showed up in Lough Foyle a few days ago. The pipe was floated here in six sections by tugboats from Norway and will be 4km in length when connected and completed. The crane along with a floating platform also arrived to do the connection work. Twenty five tonne blocks will be used to connect the pipe. It will be assembled here in Moville over the next few months before being moved to Blackpool, Lancashire, where it will be used to upgrade the public sewage system there. When completed it will be floated out in one giant 4km piece.

Banksy Exhibit at Moville Library
Last week, the intern that is currently working at our library created this little exhibit of some of Banksy's work. She gathered all the materials from a book and some websites on the internet. The first column you see are the titles of his works, the second and third columns are his works. The goal is to match the titles with his work. Anyone who comes in to the library has a chance to match the titles with the art. A lot of school kids come in to the library in the afternoon. It is a good exercise for them according to our librarian.
I only put my favorites in this post.
