Well I hope the lads that made it enjoyed the spin around Limerick / Tipp.

I tried to make sure it ticked all the boxes.

Torrential Rain Showers and Getting Soaked - Check
Being Chased By a Bull - Check
Realising the Bull wasnt that bothered about us really - Check
Injuries - Check
Mad as a hatter theories - Check

But seriously hope day out was ok, Id seen the sites before and the area really impressed me but of course it could be different for different people. It was nice to revisit them, especially Circle O & P.

Well summarised! It was the way he looked at us (the bull). Very threatening.

Was a bit annoyed with myself for not making more of an effort with part 5. You engaged with it very diplomatically.

Great day though, Derek. I might take ye on next year, all going well.

Great day, absolutely bolloxed at the end of it.

There was a point on top of Knockadoon in one of the many torrents that I wondered what the f... I was doin' here. It happened again at the small lake when we were being told about the bog oak being part of the roof for a neolithic sauna that was used by an army of thousands. I wondered who was crazier: him for coming out with that stuff, or me for listening.

Loved the cashels, loved the wrecked circles O and P, loved the mad looking bullaun and loved the calm calves at Grange, chewing the cud in the sunshine.

Thanks Derek

A great day, even though I'm hobbling today.

I woke up rather stiff this morning*


Many thanks
