Yesterday saw the death of a nice old tree in Dublin, it's not really too news worthy except that this was a famous aul tree and we'll miss it now it's knobbly wonky trunk is gone. The tree was at the entrance to Trinity on Nassau Street and stood there for 130 years before fungal diseases forced the chopper-men to chop it down. I spied on them with my camera.
We are Glam, Bird, and Alert. Here's a bit about us:
Peter Glam: is a little bit loopy and a lot a bit lovely. likes to read books and learn things. enjoys a good cackle. is in touch with the necessities of life.
RoryBird:i work in radio and live in a lovely flat on Fade Street, enjoy the feel of magazines, trashy films and sweet cups of tea.
James Alert: Well im a bit simple apparently. I do love tea (posh tea no mugs thanks) Mairee Antoinette is my idol. I love dressing up and dancing. Give me a nice trinket and im yours.
NOOOOOOOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteThis is a tragedy of "Littlefoot's Mom Dying" magnitude.
If you ask me, fungus is more trouble than it's worth.
RIP my leafy friend. During your (relatively) short life you chloro-filled my life with so much joy and will live forever in my heart.
Darragh.
