At 730am, we, once again, left for Killarney and the Ford dealership. They needed the car for the whole day to get the side fixed up. We were dropped off in the town and spent a couple of hours walking around and looking in stores, then about 1130am, we split up and planned to meet at 4pm, just before the ride back to Ford.
I made my way to the local library where I encountered my first rude Irish women. Not sure what I did to upset them or if I did anything, but she seemed irritated at my couple of questions. I got in trouble for plugging in my laptop, and most of the websites I tried to access didn’t work; honestly there was no pornography! I did however write up my diary for several days. Once my battery died, I headed down to the local internet café and then spent 90 minutes there downloading pics, answering work emails and getting all caught up with life in general.
We got away from Killarney about 530pm, drove back to Waterville and had a pint at The Fisherman’s Bar and then home to have a light supper and watch TV. Sure hope the weather gets a little nicer. Had I known, I would be so cold, I’d have brought my long johns and fleece pants. It’s just so damp. Any dreams of ever living here are now gone cause I couldn’t bear the weather or the cold. They don’t have enough nice days. Better to come and visit now and again, I think.
Last night, I watched the Late, Late show, and saw Martin Sheen and Colim Toibin interviewed and watched some important Irish men and women fight about their political system. Now on the radio, they are at it again. How annoying! The Irish also like to argue about politics!
Met some men here golfing from Boston for 4 days. Long way to come for 4 days, but they were happy.
So far, it has been a great holiday but I am longing to be home. Hopefully the next 4 days will go quickly. I don’t want to wish the time away, so am trying to keep the chin up. Some sun would help, I’ll tell you that.
