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!
