Went exploring #Waterford yesterday. Went to the beautiful #coppercoast and the lovely exhibition hall. From there on to #Helvichead in bright sunshine. Helvic is well worth the short detour off from Dungarvan and is in #rinn #gaelteacht. #ireland you’re only gorgeous #speirghorm

I know that feeling! I was in Ballybunnion today and got really excited when a Chough perched on the castle walls! You have to view pic full size to see him/her peeking over the wall

#Beara. You must seek out this spot and visit #helensbar between #lauragh and #kenmare. This “village” #kilmakilloge , consists of a pier, and Helen’s Bar/restaurant/accommodation and a huge carpark!!!! But this is heaven on earth. Fantastic seafood. #speirghorm. #ireland

I visited the site of 12th century #Dunamase Castle today in glorious sunshine. The views are stunning from here. Very easily accessed just off the M8 motorway outside Portlaoise. Well worth the short detour! #spéirghorm #ireland

Just had a great “catch-up” l3 hour lunch with a friend I haven’t seen in 5 years. Venue was #Gallaghers in #Cork. I was fortunate enough to have seen #Rorygallagher live several times in Cork. The photos brought back great memories. #spéirghorm
