    While I normally try to find connections when I post images here, sometimes it's fun to go with four random, completely-unconnected-in-any-way-at-all photos too -- and this is one of those occasions!!

     

    The first photo was shared with me by MS POLL, of King Edward VII Academy, and it features her with a couple of her Year 8 students, who evidently have amazing taste in reading!!! I must say, as a side note -- I love schools where the focus is on inclusivity, so it touched my heart to see that they allow Smiley Face kids to attend classes too!!!

     

    The second photo was shared with me on Twitter by BRADLEYSOUPSTRETCH, who was pleasantly surprised to find a copy of Demon Apocalypse occupying a prominent placing in Glastonbury Abbey Museum.

     

    The third photo was taken in Airdrie Academy LRC, which proudly stocks Darren Shan books on its shelves. No prizes for finding them, given the helpful highlighting which has been applied to the pic!!!

     

    The final photo was taken by a visitor to the Kildimo GAA pitch in County Limerick, who noticed a suitably Shantastic sponsor among the various advertising billboards. As someone who played for Pallaskenry/Kildimo when I was a boy and teenager, and with very strong family connections to the club (both my grandfather and father came through their ranks to represent Limerick County, the former in hurling, the latter in Gaelic football), I could hardly say no when they asked!!!!
