Two girls making the most of the Oxegen storms

Girls at Oxegen

Oxegen is a 2 day annual music festival, started in 2004, which takes place in Punchestown Race Course in Co. Kildare. On average there are about 80,000 music lovers and festival junkies in attendance each day. Oxegen go'ers this year were completely drowned out on the first day with torrential rain. As much of the music was lost in the winds, mud-wrestling and mud-sliding became the prefered activities for the day! These two girls put on an almighty show and then bought us drinks, to show their appreciation of our appreciation!

The calm after the storm. The beautiful sky after the madness of Oxegen, at 5 o'clock on Monday morning. Exhausted, but happy.

The Goal : The 32 Counties of Ireland

One of our main goals for the Around Ireland Summer of 2006 project is to visit every one of the 32 counties of Ireland. 

For those of you with geo-politicial math confusion, that would be the 26 counties of the Republic of Ireland and the 6 counties of Northern Ireland. 

26 + 6 = 32

We have skeptics amongst us, but I think we are going to make it.  Since I started this site in May 2006, I have visited Co. Louth, Co. Meath, Co. Dublin (live there), Co. Wicklow, Co. Kildare, Co. Westmeath, and Co. Offaly.

Shonagh and I are going to Co. Wexford and possibly Waterford tomorrow.  Jasper is going to Co. Sligo this weekend for the Sligo Agricultural Fair.  And I am going to Belfast this weekend (Co. Down) with a small drive up to Co. Antrim on Sunday to investigate Larne a bit more.

I think we will hit all 32 by the end of August.  What do you think?

Yep. We found buckfast here. The first shop we came across for miles in Connemara, a tiny little place with all the necessities for the locals, and there on the shelf were about 3 bottles of wines, and about 20 bottles of 'bucky'. Dark horses, those connemara grannies..
