The Chipper By The Sea.

On Monday we went to the chipper or chippy like they say in England again.

Near the Long Strand beach at Inchydoney near Clonakilty.

Regular readers will remember we have been here before:


Far from the madding crowds and work and I had a fish cake and a bag of chips and a cold bottle of seven up.  It was saying 27 degrees on the car dashboard.  It was just perfect.

Why do you need to go abroad when there is a beach and a chippy in West Cork?  

It was a great afternoon on the Irish Riviera on a Monday afternoon.

  9. Don't big it up too much Dave or your favorite places will be overrun by tourists and there will be a queue at the chippy (and prices go up)!
