Hi you did choose well, Leap is right on a spectacular and vast estuary - nice pubs, good music and very close to Drombeg etc. Dont forget to check out lesser know and wilder sites like the cirles at Ahakista and Dunbeacon - its worth buying the Guide to the Stone Circles in Cork and Kerry - (part of a series which includes shiela na gigs etc) which is very detailed and has a useful map. Freely availabe once you're over here. Enjoy - we do get some good weather here too! Love Flora

Ha-Ha! Welcome Flora!

Is this another Irish contributor I see before me? Any chance of the OS cor-ords for those sites you mention?

Unfortunately most of the Cork specific books are only available in the Cork area (which will not be aproblem for ocifant - cos he's going there). However, they don't seem to be in the shops here in Dublin.

I have a cracking line-up for this Sunday's trip to Cork. The main problem is because I have to come all the way from Dublin and back in one day I tend to cram a heck of a lot of sites in, which is great (and very easy in Cork) but it does remove some of the fun.

At some point this Sunday all being well I intend to find a nice quite circle to take a break, have some food and take a nap!

Thanks for that! Names now added to the list...
