Caricatures Ireland

Alexia is looking to volunteer her mad skillz to a lucky community or arts group:

“So this Autumn, I’m interested in helping out an arts or community group that needs a hand, web-wise. This could be a feedback on plans for a new site, helping them with strategy or working through an alpha or beta of a site recording bugs. I might even help with some advice on online engagement (although I’m not a social media maven/guru/whatever). Maybe help them get a blog up and running. The aim is spend 3 days with an organisation and leave them with something tangible at the end of it.”

Una cogging Rick’s playlist while Derek glares out from between them.

Rick can text and DJ at the same time.

Rick lets one off. Una’s too polite to mention it. Fire alarm goes off.

I happened to be in Dublin as I’d a couple of gigs. It was eventful. I was drawing caricatures at Legal Island’s review of employment law and Wyeth’s HR Department’s Christmas party. Great craic and met lots of nice people. Going to Soundcheck was another plus.
The cons were, in order:
My car engine died. I’m waiting on a new engine. I’m in Galway. My car is in Terenure.
My shades broke.
The pants of my suit ripped up the side.
I always balance these little trials by counting my fingers and toes. All present and accounted for.
