HOME

Ahhhh the green hills of county Clare....















After Sub-Con i decided to take a couple of days off to visit some family and friends. Spent a couple of days in Quin and Ennis in County Clare (above) and a few days with friends in Limerick (below)

























After that i did a couple of days work in Stephen Mooney's studio, he being a gracious host as ever. Here's Steve working away on his pages.......
















And the 'guest drawing-board' that i was using, with all my Frankenstein work crap on it....

















Once i'd enough work done, i picked up my mate Matt and his lovely girlfriend Nara from the airport. We spent a couple of days (walking and drinking) around Dublin. Mega thanks to John, Keith and Tony for putting us up for the couple of days.

One of the days we met up with the 'irish gang', ie, Mooney, Thompson, Bob Byrne and their respective partners for a trip to the Guinness brewery, dinner, and a couple of drinks after, which was great. I love meeting up with those guys.
















More drinks at the Porter House followed, and some Croatian Brandy as a nightcap. We all had to be up early for Birmingham......

I thought Will was kidding when he told me that you'd probably install a hidden camera in my studio... I'm off to check the bathroom

The photos of Clare and Limerick look like pictures of good and evil.
