I dont know this guy at all, but basically he took all the sites Ive visited and posted on here and turned them into his book on County Tipperary. Thats fair enough I guess, he has gone and visited them all but even an email to say hey while doing it would have been nice.
PS I wondered if it might be possible to have a "stickied" Ireland thread on here, Im sure lots of people from Ireland stumble upon here but see the low irish presence on the board. If there was a dedicated Ireland thread it might make it easier for people to get in contract with the Irish enthusists. We generally now use the forum on Megalithomania to keep in touch now.
Hi, Bawn
I became aware of the MMI on Facebook but only recently looked at his web-site. I've not yet had the opportunity to visit any ancient sites in Ireland but hope to spend a good bit of time doing so in the not too distant future. Northern Ireland seems enigmatic - if you ignore the politics and recent history. In prehistoric/historic terms I'm drawn to its close connections with the Western Isles of Scotland.
Megalithomania is a great web-site too, when I do begin my Irish travels I will be referring to it often. Tom FourWinds is much missed (along with many other departees) and it would be good to have a link to his site - don't know if there is some protocol that would prevent this though. I recently lost my 'favourites' bar on the internet - it disappeared one day and I've never been able to get it back so its easy to lose sight of my favourites websites.
All the best
tjj
