Royal Proclamation


Confounded traffic lights, too many of 'em; ruddy buses blocking whole lanes, causing even more congestion - avoid the rear-end of a bus like the bubonic plague, Belmont; parking spaces like the proverbial hens' teeth; no spaces at all near Molly's Yard, the place where I had intended to lunch today.

Consequently, I motored home and was deprived of a few choice morsels at Molly's!

Now that I've got that rant off my chest, I wandered into City Hall in Belfast - haven't darkened its doors for quite a few summers. I photographed Queen Victoria's proclamation granting Belfast City Status.

Earlier I'd been in the Linenhall Library. It's curious how one sees the same old buffers there, like pieces of the furniture.
