Erring on the side of caution

When I went to the Forty Foot this morning, there was quite a bit of swell. Nothing totally scary, but a good bit of swell nonetheless. A while back I might have decided to go in anyway and join the only other swimmer in the water on the 40 Foot side. 
But BS's voice rang in my head  and his account of seeing a man drowning in that very spot just a few weeks ago. 
I asked myself a very simple question: is it worth the risk? 
On balance, it wasn't. So I took a short walk to the much more sheltered Sandycove side. Where the full moon was still on show. 

Nope folks, this is not a ForthportsJefe blip. This is I, Raheny_Eye. Feeling a bit cheeky.
