Midleton Food & Drink Festival This Weekend

We’re off to the Midleton Food & Drink Festival later. Sounds like good fun and I’ll have plenty of snaps with my new lens! (more)
There’s another vintage rally happening down near Macroom tomorrow which is where we’ll head.

Looks like lots more to do this week and until the end of the year too!
This week being heritage week there’s lots of events on! There’s everything from guided tours of lighthouses to re-enactments of the American Civil War at Charles Fort, to displays of 16th century weapons that ravaged Munster at the time!
Next Saturday is when An Ceile Mor 2005 will take place! Over 10,000 people will gather on 7 stages on Grand Parade and South Mall to dance the Siege of Ennis in an attempt to break a world record!

The Holy Grail of PHP?

What is the Holy Grail? Depends on who you ask. Some may think that it’s the object orientated “Ruby on Rails” but others still use functional coding. There’s room for everyone.
This combination of Smarty, PHP and Ajax is interesting. There are a few links in the comments to other PHP toolkits including PHP on Trax which is based on the same idea as the previously mentioned Rails project.
Must study and try out later.
