You never know who you might meet in Dublin...

[Cian McLiam]

Went into Dublin today, armed with my new camera (Nikon D70) to try it out.

Met some people I wasnt expecting:

Michael Palin (Monty Python, travel programmes etc etc..) was doing a book signing of his new book on the Himalayas:

And of course, you'll always bump into the scumbag who tries to make things a little difficult for the buskers!

[jacblades]

did the scumbag pull the plug or did the musician notice first?

 

[Cian McLiam]

Cheers, and yes, he did get the cord out of the guitar! The busker is a comedian/singer type and ended up paying the guy ten euro to kep him quiet!

Michael Palins Himalaya series has just finished on the TV here. Was very attractive, but I find his style a little grating at times, the "useless foreigner" image. Having travelled rough all over the world, without a support crew and researchers to do my background for me, the image is somewhat offensive.
