Free Cash, Nuns and Father's Day for Oil Rigs...

I thought the following picture might amuse some of you...

Anywho, on with business! I went to Portstewart today, taking the costal route from Bushmills, which goes through Portrush. I visited the library and had an Ulster Fry in Morreli's, as well as an ice-cream later on.


You can see the convent clearly in this picture, which was taken from the Town Hall end of the Prom (right after I'd finished my ice-cream! ;-) ).


The above pictures are of the two drilling rigs that have showed up recently on our coast. At least, I think they're drilling rigs, but to be honest, I'm not really sure! From what I hear, they're supposed to be helping with the new sewers that are being layed around these parts, but I can't see why a drilling rig (that drills straight down) would be of much use to sewer laying (which needs to go horizonally)...all very strange...and what's even stranger is that there used to be one rig (now known as the 'baby rig'), but a much bigger rig (now known as the 'father rig', for obvious reasons!) has now shown up!

Strange...
