Hi mac and rob
Your trip is about standard for this year, nice enough forecast that actually ends up completly wrong!, its getting rather frustrating to say the least, good idea with the guiness though!!!
Will that count as a species this year in cork, could guarantee a few would be caught!!
regards

Hey Martyn,
Totally Agree. There have been a lot of Days forecast as good, with very few actually turning out that way. Looking forward to Cork already, hopefully the weather gods don't mess that one up
At the very least we'll get a few pints in......
Tight Lines,
Kev

Sounds like making the best of the day!!
What's the story with Greystones.... it looks like it could be twinned with Basra!! Will the slump effect development?

Cheers Pete, The new Car tows her nicely.
Jim,
I think the slump has already effected the development. The developer has already invested a lot of cash, so is committed to the project. But you can see there has been very little progres in the last few months. There is also very few people about the place from what I have seen. It will finish, but I think they will do their best to make the project last at least another 2 years until things pick up a bit.

Nice one lads, it's always nice to get out anyway even if the fish don't play ball. This wind is getting to be a bit of a pain alright.
Pete take note of Rob and the Guinness - all I'm saying is that there is room for a minibar and tap in Norfolk 'n' Fish.......
