Keeping on my toes - good suggestion.
Probably what I need if I ever want to find the wren...
No matter how loud they sing - I don't do birding by ear.
Thanks, Dewi - lovely pics once again and equally interesting!

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

RP, craic is the Gaelic term for having a great time with friends, usually reffered to when the banter is good, but can mean the atmosphere in general.
You will just have to take my word on the Guinness. It tastes 10 times better there than anywhere else I've had it. It takes them up to 30 minutes to pour a pint. They are lined up beneath the bar in various stages of pouring. A common question that the barman asks when you order a Guinness is "and what'll you be havin inbetween." Refering to what drink do you want while you are waiting for the Guinness to settle.
Some pics of the Bridges of Ross on the South-west coast.
Just over the horizon is America.

Who are the Troglodyte lovers? //\0--
How many beautiful things we pass by almost all the days, without really seeing them
The Guiness in Ireland is special and the atmosphere too
If anybody is interested all my pics from Ireland are here!
