The Weekend in Black and White.


Shamrock
(Seamróg)

The shamrock is a symbol of Ireland, displayed on St Patrick's Day (17th March.)
This year, all parades were cancelled, and all bars closed.
It was an eerily quiet day.
I was still able to buy my shamrock from a charity, and displayed it on my kitchen table.

I hope you are all keeping well at this unhappy time.
 

Many great black and white photos can be found through the links on the Home Page.

The return to normality seems a long way away, but thanks for sharing the hopefully luck-bringing shamrock

Oh well, this is clover, and that's good luck! They could use some at the moment.
Happy weekend, Julie

thanks for the clover. Yes, we're going to have a long prison term and we're all going to need some luck. Have a good weekend.
