Saint Patrick's Day parades have been cancelled all over Ireland, and all over the world due to, well you undoubtedly know it's the coronavirus / COVID-19.
Tourist attractions, pubs and most shops have shut. Today though the church bells rang out at 11:00 to mark what would have been the start of parades in many towns across Ireland - press play below to hear those.
When all of this is over, do join me on a photography tour in Ireland and in the meantime stop by and say hello, ask me some questions about Ireland or join one of my online photography sessions coming soon.
