It's amazing how an innocent comment made by me regarding the situation in the Middle East can bring out the rednecks. When in Westport I mentioned how people in Ireland were concerned about the "deaths on both sides" in the Middle East. This was in reference to the protesters with the Palestinian flag in Westport . Well the guys in the greying boxer shorts with string vests and the sad lonely people who spout hatred pounced. It was nothing I hadn't heard before. Facebook block the ones who use swear words and certain terms and I block the hate speech. In Ireland we support the right to protest and that is how the Palestinian flag was flying in Westport. Thank You .

I like visiting Aughanure Castle on the road from Galway to Clifden. It's a friendly place and the guides are on top of their game. The black collie even greets you at the gate.

Frank's son and family would like you to spread a little kindness today. Frank captured perfectly the Irish spirit,he was compassionate and forgiving ,stern but always fair and kind. Let's not forget his sense of humor which would not be out of place in a pub in Kerry. For now pretend he was Irish . Prionsias O' Caprio Rest in Peace.

Good morning from Killarney. There is lot's of interest following yesterday's post in a recipie for Sloe Gin. Thanks to the BBC for this. No need to send me a bottle ,just keep it till Christmas and raise a glass to Ireland.

Make this sloe gin in advance and leave to mature for a richly rounded, fruity flavour. It makes for a perfect homemade gift
