Christmas Lights and Brass Monkey's

The weather has turned brass monkey like.

Its cold.

Its dark.

Last weekend the misery was pilled on by the rain. Finally the Christmas lights seem like a really good idea. They've changed the lights in Grafton street. At first seen not turned on I was annoyed. I loved the big green lush bands that hung across the street. Now the were skinny white lights. Turned on they were nice. The lights in Wicklow Street are lovely. Those in the IFSC on the Trees by the river are blue. OK so blue lights were everywhere last year. Well they're shite. Blue is not a colour for food or Chrismas lights. Those on the side of CHQ in the IFSC are so much better. At least they cheer up the depths of winter a bit.
