Thought you might like to know about the visit I had from the lovely Tygress (Amy) and her equally charming husband, Win, at Shanna Quay this week. They called in on Saturday morning, having just landed at Shannon - and despite the jet lag and Amy’s broken (and still mending) leg were in remarkably great spirits, and obviously pleased to be in Ireland again. I was sorry to see them go, after only 15 minutes or so!
You can imagine how pleased I was, then, to find that - because the wind was so high today - they had abandoned their planned ferry from Tarbert to Clare (and the cliffs of Moher) and arrived back in Adare, where they had lunch (and where I invited myself along!) I closed the shop for an hour and we had a wonderful old ‘chin wag’.
It’s really good to meet up with C&F’ers (I’ve already got Jessie and Martin as notches on the belt) and it’s no surprise to me that they are all first-class people. Amy was remarking, as she left, that the C&F ‘fraternity’, and the internet, made it feel as if we were actually very close togther (maybe ‘close knit’) rather than actually quite far apart in some cases.
