Some random photos from around Ireland, more representative of the kind of dank weather we get here!
First up is the ruins of Clonmacnoise abbey, which was built from 544 AD onwards and ransacked numerous times by vikings
Which is why they built these towers which had a door quater way up, they pulled the ladder up with them and could safely dump boiling water onto anyone trying to climb up...
Obvioulsy the monks got a cowboy to build this one, barely 1400 years and its in a right state...
Altamount house and gardens, Carlow
The place was awash with throngs of tourists..
Where does the time go...
The Botanic Gardens in Dublin
more soon!
