<b> </b>The ‘Alice in Blanchardstown’ Project was a tribute to Alice in wonderland which in 2015 celebrated its 150<sup>th</sup> Anniversary of publication. As you a likely to know already the Reverend Charles Dodgson, a very shy and very reserved maths professor better known as Lewis Carrol wrote the original story in 1862. Its main character was inspired by the real life Alice Lidell the daughter of the Dean of christ church college which Carrol worked in. Carrol asked John Tenniel, an illustrator who work for punch magazine at the time, to illustrate the book and the rest is history.<br />

<u>ONE BOOK</u> </h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was a ‘One Book One Community’ element to the project, for this we used a version written by <a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/Alice-Wonderland-Susie-Linn/9781784452469" target="_blank">Susie Linn</a> and illustrated by <a href="https://theaoi.com/folios/alexandra-ball/?img=alexandra-ball-6" target="_blank">Alexandra Ball</a> with a lot of help we found enough copies to get around the five schools who participated in the project<span style="text-align: justify;">. The book having been published itself to mark 150 years of Alice makes the story accessible to younger generation and is a great bedtime read. </span></div>

A twelve hour stint waiting in accident and emergency was not what I had in mind for the weekend. When I arrived at reception I was told that it was very busy and there were 17 ahead of me in the queue.<br />

As the evening wore on the guy seen sitting in the wheel chair here who had registered at reception at around 10pm was informed there were 36 people ahead of him. He was helping a nephew by refereeing a saturday morning match when his back went. He couldn't walk with the pain, he called an ambulance which he reckons may cost him €700.<br />

Having arrived at 7.30pm Saturday evening and seeing the nurse at 8.15 I was admitted to see the Doctor at 3.00am. I got results of blood tests and an x-ray at 7am Sunday morning. Mean while beside me Jennifer and Gary were on concussion watch and oliver was being resuscitated next door after burning his face and throat with poppers. There but for the grace of god, a debt of gratitude and admiration for all staff of Dublin's A+E services </div>

At the time I made the acquaintance of the Manager of a restaurant on Dame st in Dublin. He was an all round decent guy and appreciated art. He gave me permission to hang work for sale in the establishment, which i could change from time to time. He personally bought a few pieces of my work. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Signs on as time waits for no man and the restaurant changed hands a new manager was brought in with whom I also negotiated wall space. The relationship was a courteous functional one with no love lost on either side she didn't really know why i wanted to hang pictures in the place at all. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Around this time it came to my knowledge that Bowie was due to play in Dublin and was staying in the U2 owned Clarence Hotel. During a conversation with two friends and beer, an Idea struck me. The most recent painting I had hung on the walls of the restaurant was a portrait of the thin white duke himself. In all bravado and naivety I determined to inform Bowie of the paintings whereabouts and existence (the impudence!). Setting pen to paper I wrote a note addressed to Mr Bowie, got on the next bus into town and beat a purposeful path to the Clarence Hotel. the concierge was naturally polite but icy and would neither confirm nor deny if a Mr B was currently shacked up in the Hotel. I politely requested that if a certain Mr B happened to be staying there, could this note make its way to him? the concierge politely accepted the note and grinned. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I heard nothing of it and tried my damnedest to think nothing of it for the next few days but secretly hoped against hope that something might come of it. At the end of two weeks of hearing nothing, dejected, I felt it was time to take the painting down and possibly replace it with something, or possibly not. I entered the restaurant, approached sour puss and told her I was taking back the painting. She proceeded to tell me very animatedly " aw jaysus you will never guess who we had in here the other day, only David Bowie's wife Iman we were all soooooo excited it was mad altogether!!!,....oh yea I forgot ...you have a painting here of David Bowie...." </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> from one of a billion Bowie fans I raise my glass to you may you rest in piece..</span><br />

Berlin
is a city made to cycle, like many other European cities you can
accsess all areas of Berlin on your bike. The majority of streets
have spacious cycle lanes and the trains and trams come equiped with
carraiges where bikes can be brought on board for a paltry sum.</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
This,
unfortunaley, is logistically impossible to do in Dublin, a city that
is served by a large bus network with no capacity for bikes. Dublin
has of course lots of other virtues and being one eight the size of
Berlin has a centre which can be cycled from one end to the other in
fifteen to twenty minutes.</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Berlin
ist eine Stadt zum Fahrrad fahren. Wie viele andere Europäische
Städte kommt man mit Fahrrad überall hin. Der Großteil der Straßen
verfügen über geräumige Fahrradwege und die Sbahnen und
Straßenbahnen kommen ausgerüstet mit Wagen wo Fahrräder können,
für wenig Geld gebracht werden.</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br />
</div>
<br />
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Leider
ist das in Dublin logistisch unmöglich. Einer Stadt, die von einem
großen Bus-Netzwerk mit Platz für Fahrräder serviert wird zu tun.
Dublin hat natürlich viele andere Tugenden und als einer acht die
Größe Berlin hat ein Zentrum, das von einem Ende zum anderen in
fünfzehn bis zwanzig Minuten gefahren werden kann.</div>

Saturday, on an outing with the Urban Sketchers Berlin group (for the first time in a long time) was an eye opener. We met in the Moabit area of Berlin at the "Classic Remise" show rooms for antique cars. Initially I was under the false impression that it maybe a small collection of Rolls Royce's and jaguars but the place is packed to the rafters with all shapes and forms of cars from the early 1900's to the present day sports cars either to buy or rent. the place is a treasure trove which I won't be long revisiting.</div>

Using both sides of the sketch pad can leave interesting water marks, my brush is a new pentel waterbrush which had to be bought as I lost my brushes and pens on a recent trip to Ireland. I am very happy with the resulting stronger colours and wetter working. still not recommending the expensive habit of losing materials though</div>

We were a healthy sized group and it was great to met, in person, a few people whom I know only as three centimeter photos on the Internet. The weather was not at all conducive to drawing or painting of any form luckily the Markthalle has a roof and we all remained in doors.<br />

After a strenuous round of afternoon sketching there was a little trouble finding a restaurant that was both big enough for a group of our size, and interesting enough inside to give us all something to draw. In the end Cafe Josephine won our custom I ignored the decor and drew Werner, Annette and Christian. It was great to have the opportunity to met up with the group again and thanks top Katrin for organising it </div>

Perhaps it is all in a name. I used to see organ grinders in Dublin when I was growing up but they are now a thing of the distant past, no longer to be seen. The name "Organ grinder" has negative connotations, and has had for quite some time. Where as It wouldn't necessarily bother if me if I heard the 'Lyre cabinet' man was coming around the corner... even if he was dressed very similar to Otto von Bismark...<br />
