The Jeanie Johnston is a replica of the ships that made the difficult journey to the United States during the Irish Famine in the 19th Century. It was docked in Cobh at the weekend and Ronan (pictured below in the galley) very kindly gave myself and Justin a tour of the ship! Thank you Donogh for ringing ahead, and I owe you a pint or two next time! Enjoy the photos!

Welcome to WordPress.com
Looks like Matt has started giving out WordPress.com invites. Hmm.
Only one per person, who would you give your invite to?
Avoiding the dreaded Refresh
WTF were they thinking when they coded this bit of trash and made it public? Embedding SQL into a web page?
I don’t know if I’ve met anyone as clueless as this poor guy’s (almost) previous employer!
Cobh Peoples Regatta, 2005
It’s been a busy weekend. I went down to Cobh tonight to see the firewords and capture the mood of the people in photos.. Everyone was in great form and the fireworks were a great end to the Regatta.
This is part 1 of a 2 part series of shots. Part 2 comes tomorrow and will have pictures from inside the Jeanie Johnston (Thanks Donogh and Ronan!) and shots of the band that played the night away…
Ryan was there too, and he has some stunning shots of the fireworks and the fairground!
Update! This blog was mentioned on Red FM a few minutes ago! I emailed them but didn’t honestly expect to hear anything back! Great!

AJAX in IE without ActiveX
Kae discovered that AJAX functions in IE depend on ActiveX being enabled. This is terrible – something that’s useful (AJAX) depends on something awful(ActiveX)!
Anyway, Kae found a way around this limitation. It’s not complete but it’s a stab in the right direction.
