Greetings Earthling

I noticed this odd couple in a back lane in Dalkey (I was visiting my mum, who's staying there for a couple of weeks).

I was in two minds about whether to make the above or this more dramatic from-the-ground portrait of a Dalek being digested by a Martian caterpillar the main blip.

Weather continues strange, often rainy or cloudy, though with more extended sunny patches. Here's hoping some of them hold.
