Saying this however, and at the risk of being accused of sour grapes (lol), isn’t February a bit early in the year to be judging the best blog for 2009?

Past to Present
Ireland is represented by the two chimneys of Dublin Bay which are a great symbol of Dublin, our capital city. The Luas represents the new and modern Ireland while the horse represents the famous Irish horse fairs that have been on for hundreds of years – it is a symbol of our past and future.

Google are taking public votes for which logo it’ll display on Saint Patricks Day 2009.
The entries are from junior 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th/5th & 6th class, 1st/2nd/3rd year and transitional/5th/6th year students respectively from all over Ireland. The images are categorised by their revelant classes, and the images reflect this.
My personal favourite, shown to the right here, by Kelly Kiernan (Age 16) was in the transitional/5th/6th year section.Ironically, perhaps from a school I went to for a sum total of one day, back in days of old. Perhaps not, it’s still an awesome picture though!
