Loughcrew Cairns

Today being a typical lazy Sunday we decided to take a walk. We ended up in County Meath at Loughcrew Cairns.
Believe me the hill doesn’t look tall but when you start to walk up it you start to have a different opinion. Fairy cold but we all enjoyed the walk and we got some good photos.

St. Patrick’s Day 2013

With weather typical for St. Patrick’s Day, rain pouring from the sky. Caroline & Ben headed off into Cavan town to watch the St. Patrick’s Day parade.
After a bit of searching they found a sheltered spot with a good view of the parade as is pasted.
Not as big as previous years but they enjoyed it all the same.

Mondello Park 2012

What a day we had today. Ben, Caroline and myself went down to Mondello Park Raceway to see some buggies racing.
Thanks to a close friend of mine Joe Cullen from Joe Cullen Racing we have access to his pit and also to his corporate box which was nice and warm on a fairly cold day.
If every you have the chance to see these buggies race you should go see them, the absolutely fly along.
