Mike Enright took this photo of a fantastically peaceful Ballybunion sunset earlier this week. We are lucky to have someone like Mike with his knowledge of the weather and the tides to bring us views of Ballybunion that us landlubbers rarely get to witness.

Beautiful Athea
When I was away with the fairies in Athea a few weeks ago I missed these beautiful sights. These photographs are from Athea Tidy Town’s website. What talent and community commitment they have in this little place. The village is a credit to everyone concerned.

This rhododendron forrest in Tipperary looks beautiful but it is practically impenetrable. Two very experienced mountaineers got trapped here last Sunday. The South Eastern Mountain Rescue Association had great difficulty in reaching them to free them. Avoid!

I was a bit surprised to run into these two gentlemen as I was walking the streets to get away from the World Cup. I suppose even mad soccer fans have to get away from it sometimes.

All you who sleep tonight
Vikram Seth
All you who sleep tonight
Far from the one you love
No hand to left or right
And emptiness above
Know that you aren’t alone,
The whole world shares your tears
Some for two nights or one
And some for all their years.
