October 29, 2011 The Ha'Penny Bridge (or "Wellington Bridge") over the River Liffey was the only pedestrian bridge (and they charged half a penny, back in the day, but people were so poor that they could only afford half the word). It's one of the iconic features of Dublin in the heart of the City Centre. Built in 1816 and rennovated in 2001. At least, that's what my postcard says. A full-size picture is here. |

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random
sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes
just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly
scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also
am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated
it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of
people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title
provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind
if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search
engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.
Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox
properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't.
I don't care.
If you want to see the image without the annoying blue-lined background
image, just click on the image.
