    Tear it down. Build it up.

    Just up the road from The Spaniard in Kinsale. This was taken in 2019. I drove past a few weeks ago and they’ve done a lot of work on it since!

    The dog and the red door

    A dog sits in a doorway on Paul Street, pictured 6 years ago. I’m not sure which doorway it was but I think it was one opposite Pinochio’s. Streetview isn’t helpful as it only has streetview going back to 2017 for this street.

  • The Mother of our Cats

    The Mother of our Cats

    Mommy Cat, a now elderly cat who has lived with us for over 12 years now, is a semi wild cat who brought her kittens to us many years ago. There were six cats altogether. Three boys, a girl and their mother. She has never let us rub her, unless we get a sneaky rub in as she’s facing away but she immediately tries to bat our hands away. However, her offspring were and are the most affectionate cats. Unfortunately the three boys were killed on the main road beyond the ditch. Mommy Cat rarely leaves our garden now, and Hoppy mustn’t go far as there are feral cats around.

    Looking out over the River Shannon from the Balina side to the town of Killaloe on the west bank of the river.

    Hmm, I do believe this is the first photo I have posted in Tipperary, and half the photo is in Co Clare!
