Well foreign trips are still on the back burner for a while but I love this time of year from winter to spring with the bit of the stretch in the evenings so I have a few weekend trips in the making for around Ireland. I love revisiting sites so this year will be a mixed bag of old and new.

Tyrone: (probably next trip) Try and get some decent pics of Beaghmore, Dun Ruaidh, Creggandevensky, Altdrumman and whatever else I trip over in the area

Donegal: Gortnavern, Muntermellan, Kilclooney revisit, rock art...

Sligo: Tawnatruffaun, might actually take the tour this time at Carrowmore, see more cairns at Carrowkeel, lots to see and do around the whole area

Cork/Kerry: To see lots more rings and rows

BTW if anyones making the trip over to Ireland during April, I have an exhibition of prints on in the Newgrange/Bru na Boinne visitors centre from the 10th to the 24th, I might even give you a discount on a print if you mention TMA :)

Well my plan for the year is to try and populate the tipperary, east clare & limerick maps with as many sites as I can find. Im working in Naas so when the evenings get longer im going try and see a lot of Kildare and Wicklow too.
Im also thinking of heading to Iceland in July don't know if there are any sites out there and Im planning a sun holiday around september so will have a look through megalithic european to pick a destination. Just read The Modern Antiquarian book over christmas and was really impressed by Callinish.
