I'MA COMIN' IRELAND




















We spent the day packing up our little cottage. Amazing how much "stuff" one accumulates in five weeks. Another 6.5 kg parcel boxed up and sent home, this time costing 89.95 pounds. We were sure to include in the box some "clotted cream fudge" and "oaty flapjacks" with expiry dates after our estimated arrival home. It'll be like Christmas all over again opening up our boxes.

In the morning we'll head to Birmingham airport, drop off the car and wait to board. Then, arriving into Dublin we'll grab a taxi and go to our hotel where we'll stay for the first couple of days.

Will write when we can. Until then "au revoir." Yes, started practicing our French again.
Oh, and sadly Charles' health seems to be deteriorating rapidly. We're not sure he make it through the next couple of days :(
