I Can See Clearly Now The Weeds Have Gone.

The sun decided to play today and Fido our ancient terrier decided to saunter around the new border and meanderingpath I created a few weeks a go behind the old farmhouse.  The weeds have come back with a vengeance.  So this morning we weeded the new border and Fido supervised our weeding.

 The view that Fido is looking at from behind the farmhouse.


 Fido sniffing flowers and I think she suggested planting a 'dog' rose?  Sorry I couldn't resist that one!

The new lawn area could do with a good weeding and these concrete edgings need moving out of the way.

I promised you another video of a concert I recently attended.  I found this great You Tube video recording of the Hothouse Flowers concert in Killarney last month.  It was a great night and I have never known acoustic (semi acoustic even?) guitars could sound so heavy.  I last saw the Hothouse Flowers back in 1989 at Glastonbury Festival.  The three day festival only cost 28 quid.  The very first Glastonbury admission price was a Pound and they gave a free bottle of milk!



Hope you enjoy the video.  The songs been covered many times and I think this is a very good version.

  1. I'm not sure you need much of a garden Dave with views like that. Do you still notice it or do you marvel at it every day?

  2. Hi Philip. My grandmother use to say to visitors: "the view won't feed you." Its not a bad water feature is it? Sometimes we don't see the bay if its misty and its not very nice when there is a gale. But yes we do marvel at Gods work when he made Bantry Bay. Thanks!

  3. I enjoyed the video, it is one of the best versions I have heard. You have lovely views out the back there. My brother has unending panoramic views west from his house across flat countryside slightly rising and sees brilliant sunsets every night. A visitor once commented on it and my brother asked him what he was talking about!

  4. I am glad you enjoyed the video Rachel. It was a good night in the Killarney INEC Acoustic Club. It holds 750 people and yo can get up and walk to the bar or even dance.

    I think visitors often appreciate the beauty of a place more than people who see it every day. I have met people from London who have never visted the tourist attractions. Thanks!
