Fair play, Theresa - you’ve raised a good lad there! #Kerry Captain, Gavin White’s acceptance speech remembered the great Micheál O Muircheartaigh, after whom the new trophy is named. And then remembered the Mammies on Mother’s Day (MOM would approve!) ⁦@DrCrokesGAA@twitter.com⁩

I reckon you need to see #Kerry play live, rather than on TV, to fully appreciate what a quality player Paudie Clifford is…

Another shot of Castle Gregory beach looking south to the lumps of Caherconree and Baurtregaum. The former has the remains of a promontory hill fort on its western facing shoulder. Hopefully we'll haul our backsides up there in the not too distant future.

Look down on Dunquin Pier

I remember the day I took this photo, in August 2020. When I arrived, a group of young women were taking selfies at this spot and from my perspective, they looked like they were standing on the edge of a cliff. It’s still dangerous, but it was a calm evening and there was plenty of space if you’re an invincible teenager, unafraid of your mortality.

At the time, only pubs that served were alllowed to open due to Covid restrictions, but B&Bs and hotels were open. Breakfast in our B&B in Dingle was strictly monitored, with guests having to book their times so the dining room didn’t become too crowded.

Kayaking Adventures in Dingle Harbour

Two people kayaking at the mouth of Dingle Harbour in Co. Kerry while I was on a boat looking for Fungi, the Dingle Dolphin, back in 2017.

We saw Fungi that day. He broke the water a few times.

Wild Atlantic Waves

Waves crash onto the beach and rocks of Couminole Beach, Co Kerry near full tide. A dangerous beach for swimming at the best of times, it would be foolhardy to go swimming there in conditions like this!
