Listening to the weather forecast this morning I wondered did I wake up in a different country...''cool & windy, showers, heavy rain''
Not here in the West -blue skies and only wispy clouds. Another reason to head to Connemara -as if you needed an excuse!! more

I love this poem by Padraig Colum -An Old Woman of the Roads
Sitting in the cottage at Dan O' Hara's always brings it to my mind! What is your favourite Irish Poem?
O, to have a little house!
To own the hearth and stool and all!
The heaped up sods upon the fire,
The pile of turf against the wall!
To have a clock with weights and chains
And pendulum swinging up and down!
A dresser filled with shining delph,
Speckled and white and blue and brown!
I could be busy all the day
