    Howdy from outer space/Ireland

    Hey Marc, welcome. I have been to your home town.
    Was humbled by the remains of a castle/fort that was a coastal barrier to invaders from 9-1300AD? Maybe older? It was also handy to a wee pub iirc.
    Travelled down from Dublin thru Wicklow. Driving thru some parts, i was amazed how they were very similar to my West Coast. I mentioned to my girlfriend at the time that we would see a deer soon.
    Come round a corner and there were these to blokes with a red hilux and quad on the back glassing a likely looking slip.
    Before I said anything the dragon said, just keep driving.
    I wish I stopped for a yarn.

    welcome



    May your blessings outnumber
    The shamrocks that grow.
    And may trouble avoid you
    Wherever you go.

    You can’t kiss an Irish girl unexpectedly. You can only kiss her sooner than she thought you would.

    Ireland's the closest place I've seen to NZ. Travelled the Ring of Kerry from Dublin 2006 and my son did some of his overseas medical experience in Cork. Enjoy the forum, you'll see some great photos on NZ here.
    Boom, cough,cough,cough
