THE BIG EVENT

GALWAY CITY

Only recently did I realise that I had not visited Galway since July 2019 so I planned a week long visit at Easter 2026 and it a great success even though I was somewhat constrained by bad weather.

CORK CITY

If you spend more than five minutes in a Cork pub, you’re bound to hear someone claim that Dublin is merely a "temporary administrative convenience" while Cork is the Real Capital.
