I was going to take the car out this afternoon to various places around Dublin to get some shots &#8211; but no sooner had I finished working in the house, it starts to get very very windy and a storm <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">is about to blow in. <\/span> has started &#8211; it&#8217;s now thundering &#8211; no rain just yet.<span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The rest of the day it has been roasting &#8211; I&#8217;ve been working in the cats room putting in the (almost) finishing touches to the baseboard (skirting board for the uk readers) and trim on the floor.
