It landed on the tennis courts at the Recreation Grounds.
The helicopter is based at Sligo in the Irish Republic.

Marking the Boundary
Every local council likes to mark its' territory - and Coleraine is no exception. These signs have been erected on all the main roads where you cross into the Borough.
This sign is on the A37 Coleraine - Limavady road.
La Roche sur Yon, with which Coleraine has been twinned since 1980, is a town in Western France.
Coleraine Borough Council is one of twenty-six local councils in Northern Ireland. These are the councils which were set up in 1973 when local government was reorganised.
Proposals currently exist to reduce the number to eleven.

Back...?
Perhaps I'm back.
I've a long list of excuses for my absence. And one very good reason.
My grand-daughter - three last month - takes up time at the week-end. Time I'm happy to give to her. But not a lot of spare minutes left for photography.
No photo to-day. I think there should be a few changes to the blog first.

Last of the Snow...?
This is the path which runs alongside the Bann from the town to the Cutts at Castleroe. The photo was taken on Friday afternoon.
To-day the thaw has begun. The temperature is just above freezing, sleet is falling...
