Bongo Fury

Well folks if you've never visited IRELANDS' COASTLINE....your missing a spectacular treat !
Am back after a fanastic 4 weeks touring the emerald isle anad its coastline; what a superb journey its been & have loved every minute of it....except for the first evening when I got lost on the infamous new motorway/ring road at Dublin....Aaaaaagh . Advice to anyone who does go, forget Holyhead to Dublin etc Go straight to Rosslare and save yourself a potential heart attack/stroke or a complete breakdown of mental health !! Plus the east coast is nothing special at all; save your eyes and time for the south and south west coastline which is magnificent and utterly breathtaking. This has been the best holiday I've ever had, and I've travelled some great places in this world; never realising that only 'next door' lies so much beautyle , AND its so clean and tidy ....everywhere !! They still have men out and about with brush & shovel and those little trucks which amble along thro' villages; exactly as in my childhood.......10.000 years ago!
I've got some pics and now need to get them on photo bucket...then to this site. Please don't expect a 'Muz' level of pics, but they are special to me
Needless to say my BONGO behaved beautifully for the whole 3.447 km !!!!

Have I missed much ?????????

Pam

Sounds fantastic Pam, look forward to seeing the pics

Jason&Erica

welcome back pam.glad you had a lovely time.dont think you missed much but as i dont get out much someone else will no doubt come on and let you know if anything exciting happened.yes get some pics up for us to see what we missed.

Great stuff Pam.......really pleased you had a good time !!

Catch you soon then you can tell me all about it

Dabs

Agree with you completely. The south and south west up to Limerick are beautiful. Glad yo had a blast.

Glad your back and (hopefully refreshed), Pam.

Can't comment on the "what's been happening" front, as I've only had 1 night at home in the last 3 weeks, a mini-tour of Scotland turned into a longer trip than expected (for all good reasons).

Looking forward to the pics, I'm passing yours Tues PM, if your about.

welcome back Pam i was thinking about you on Sunday wondering when you would be back - so glad you had such a good one.

Sounds good - I'm looking forward to the pics.

We were going to "do" Ireland this year but looks like being next year now

Thanks for your comments peeps....yes am feeling refreshed and ready to....... ??? Now the biggy....I have to remember HOW to upload to photobucket as not done this for yonks, and then only the once ! Any prompts are very welcome !!!!!!!!!!!! Whats happened to the York bash this year ....cannot find it !

Copy your pics to a new folder on your computer. Then resize them all to 640 x 480 pixels.

Upload to photobucket, use the bulk uploader to do them all in one go.

Then pick the last link under each photo, copy & paste this into your BF post

Great to hear your news Pam - I'd been thinking about you and wondering how the trip was going. Sounds like you had a fantastic time - the kind of trip I hope I will someday get to do.

You know what they say Mike.......if you want something bad enough.......you'll find a way to achieve it. Am sure you will love, but do be prepared for things costing more in the Republic. Cannot remember if you smoke ?? but a packet of 20 [any type] was 8.50 euros; approx £7.50 !!!!!!
My gob was utterly smacked on first discovering this, as you can imagine.

I do, but 4 x rollups per day so they wont get me on that one esp. if I take a supply No, my biggest problem will be creating an opportunity in my life to go Musn't grumble though - its a familiar old problem for old dads
