Of this ‘parallel cycle’ with artist Fergal McCarthy, Paddy Cahill writes:

Soon after moving to Dublin Fergal developed a fascination with the river Liffey. During the 2008 economic meltdown, Fergal’s art project Liffeytown, comprising lifesize Monopoly houses floating on the Liffey, received worldwide attention, as it was seen to symbolize the state of the Irish economy. In another project, Fergal constructed a small island in the Liffey and lived there for a week. We went for a cycle with Fergal along the Liffey to discuss his newest idea: turning the Liffey Quays into a park, thereby replacing the current six lane motorway by a ‘Ribbon of Green’.

Life is good.

Kathryn Miller explains:

Sophie stunned us with her fantastic rolling abilities one day and continued to do this for a few months in different areas of my yard. Usually she just throws herself onto her back and rolls around but the first few times she did it she happened to be on a sloping hill. She did this within a few days of us getting her, she was 2 months old. The video is from the very first time she did it. She is now 6 months old (March 2014) and still does it on occasion.
