Kris Kringle

OK, so it's the October Bank Holiday Weekend which means that the annual Kris Kringle must be completed, and this year, it was no different. We've completed the draw, and it is as follows:


Tom is buying for Ann


Ann is buying for Siobhan


Jim Lowe is buying for Kay


Siobhan is buying for Jim Lowe


Kay is buying for Jennifer


Jamie is buying for Jim Farrell


Maureen is buying for Tom


Therese is buying for Maureen


Rob is buying for Ger


Ger is buying for Therese


Jim Farrell is buying for Rob


Jennifer is buying for Jamie



The above is the final decision and no changes can be made. It was drawn under the strict observation of our official adjudicator, Cian. The maximum amount that can be sent is 50 euro. Roll on Christmas!

Don't you just love guests who bring their own birthday cakes AND weed the garden

As hosts we did provide the birthday candles and the weeds. So we're not that bad.

Ring of Kerry

This weekend we got to drive the ring of Kerry , this drive is always a pleasure but the sunshine we had over the 2 days made it just perfect. We got to see Riverdance on Friday night in Killarney, watch the morning mist clear over the lakes, enjoyed a pub lunch in Waterville followed by a snooze on the beach. Our B&B had us up and on the road early on Sunday morning so we were able to make the most of the drive home taking in Valentia island on route. A sample of some of the many photos we took (more on flickr):
