This is reputedly the best place in Thailand to buy them - there is no disputing that there a queue was lined up waiting patiently!
The "Lock Up The Year" Royal Canal Trail Marathon was held on the banks of the Royal Canal from Moyvalley, Co. Kildare to Leixlip, Co. Kildare on Tuesday 31st December 2012 at 09:00. The race started at Furey's Pub at Moyvalley (goo.gl/maps/3pqhF) and proceeded westwards to Blackshade bridge (goo.gl/maps/4yVNI) where the race turned around and then the route was direct back to Leixlip. The running route followed the Royal Canal Way from start to finish. There was also the option of a 1/2 marathon (from Cloncurry Bridge near Enfield) and a 10KM distance from The Maws at Kilcock. This event is made possible through the cooperation of East Of Ireland Marathons and Jarlath B. Hynes and Brendan Murphy from Leixlip, Co. Kildare (see a Facebook group page here www.facebook.com/groups/524790427539290/?fref=ts). The key aspect of this run is that they are three races are informal and self supported runs along on the Royal Canal Way trail. There is no chip timing, water stops, marshals, massages, t-shirts or prizes. But it ise an enjoyable run along the Royal Canal and a chance to meet up with fellow runners during the race and then after it at the Le Cheile clubhouse in Leixlip. There are some nice numbers for the race today. 26.2 miles, 2 counties, 5 traversals in and out of Meath and Kildare, crossing 6 roads, and passing under 5 bridges before the finish outside the Leixlip amenities center.
Due to recent heavy rains the canal towpath (particularly between Cloncurry and Kilcock) was very wet and muddy and proved difficult and testing terrain for all of the runners. However despite a strong breeze at a few sections the weather was bright and dry and made for good running conditions.

The Royal Canal is a very special piece of Irish Heritage. It's waterway channel and it's banks have seen much history with both the rise and subsequent decline in railway and canal travel and transportation. Our run on the Royal Canal is made possible by the incredible hard and dilligent work by the Inland Waterways of Ireland and countless volunteer individuals who turned their vision of a restored Royal Canal into reality.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

I also did the first photoshop and 365 on my new imac as well so i am very pleased with myself, although it was a bit of a palava. Just realised after i uploaded as well i had the screen brighness on my new mac half way so it will look completely diferent to what i invisaged, do'h! Oh well im now free to do my 365 at any focal length and no longer limited, hoorah. I just have to save up even more money for my holiday! My arms still ache too, typical. Now where's dinner.........

Le Bambole Mk. VIII, "The Pin-Debonair Pinhole Camera". Kodak Portra 160.
This was taken last year with my first digital camera, the Canon S2 IS.
Had found this gorgeous magnolia tree in full bloom in the neighborhood. It was by the road side, and didn't fall under any homeowner's property, so I didn't feel uncomfortable taking pictures here.. Anyhow, just finished up taking close-up and "macro" shots, when I just happened to look up because I felt rain drops on my hand... little did I know that the view looking up was just as beautiful as the macros I was interested in..
The white background is nothing but cloudy sky... this was taken when I didn't know anything about exposure control or Aperture settings or anything.. I simply put the camera in "P" mode and clicked whatever I liked!!!!!
I went to the same tree yesterday, but due to the frost and colder days we've had last week, the buds had signs of "burning" before even blooming, and thus didn't look as pretty! I was a bit bummed out, but can't really control nature, so just shot some wild flowers growing on the ground and called it a day.
As always, your constructive comments are more than appreciated and welcome. Thanks for your views and comments.
Have a great week ahead.
Parked up after dark on the Transdev York yard are two buses assigned to the Inglebys fleet... Bova Futura YD02 PXE and Volvo Olympian Alexander Royale (ex-Lothian) P255 PSX, which parks here to make it quicker when just going up the road for Fulford School journeys - however in this case it has been parked here for the full 2 weeks of the christmas holidays.
Esta película es una MARAVILLA, y quien no la haya visto, de verdad, que coja y la vea. Creo que es de las mejores películas que he visto en mi vida, toda una muestra de lo bien que puede hacerse un guión sin usar tópicos. Siempre digo que parece que cuando la escribieron cogieron elementos al azar (un abuelo, un boyscout, globos, una selva, perros parlantes y un zepelín xD) y los remezclaron y salió esto xD.
Ha sido la última película que me ha hecho llorar en plan sollozos incontrolables incluso después de acabarse, te toca la fibra mucho y contiene un gran mensaje.
Pixar tiende a tener guiones excelentes, pero en esta sin duda se lucieron. Y la banda sonora es también impresionante, con un toque a años 50. La canción Married Life es para ponerla y no quitarla.

My sister Abigail Grace, 3, close up. Taken on Thanksgiving. I used a low fstop when I took the photo, but I'm still suprised at how soft the edges came out. It almost looks like I used a lensbaby or something. Alas, I did not. November 2005
