SUNDAY AUGUST 7th. FEARBREAGA
WALK.
20 enthusiastic walkers turned up, including 3 visitors (most welcome).
We started from the Mauma road and headed for Carrigaline Mast. Of course this
was a huge surprise to our visitors. "What on earth is that".
Photos at the standing stone were followed by lunch in the shelter of
the stone circle sheltering us from the wind. But the sun shone and the views
were terrific.
It takes time to get 20 bodies across wire fencing and gullies, but the “cute"
ones went first and took the opportunity to lie in the long grass soaking up
the sunshine..... Obviously I had total control over the group!!!
The Waterford v Kilkenny Hurling match was on the radio and as we
debooted, we HAD to go to the Tudor Bar in Dungarvan to console ourselves.
What's new!!!
The GAA and the DHWC are very similar-we will do it all again next week
folks-same time, same venue.
