I been to London a few times but never made it to Ireland. Maybe we could round up a few more people and plan a trip to your homeland.
Do we get people to get involved via a forum? We need to get Sabine to let us know when she has time to go back to Ireland.

Hugh, I don't think I have a photo of the chicken thief, but I am not quite sure as the I haven't downloaded my photos yet. We were in Aachen last Thursday. I have almost finished writing a report about our trip. It is quite close to Eindhoven and we go regularly because we like German bread and buy several loaves, have a Wiener Schnitzel for lunch and go back home.
I visited the 'exotic' Dutch attraction late in life. It is absolutely fun to watch the other visitors and I can recommend them.

Thank you very much for commenting on my pictures –In fact I have committed the cardinal sin of downloading twice the “cow grazing in the rice fields” shot. The first download was to Globo’s old truncated size – now I have downloaded the full original image of 1.8mb to hopefully get the true clarity The overloaded Farming picture was one that I misspelt when I uploaded it .
I am overwhelmed by all the friendly gestures from my fellow Globo’s following my recent site activity. I really must find time to spend more time on here again.
I have done a lot of travel in the past 12 months or so and hopefully will find the time to write about those trips and illustrate them with the pictures that I have taken. I also look forward to catching up with all my fellow Globo’s travel pages too.

Dear Hugh,i know that you and Rudi got very disappointed with my recent upload of 3 images,of my bird,but i had done this only for the follow up intent,after i had made a comment on downundergal parrot image.
I hadn't done this deliberately to get extra points (images had been deleted already),but only to show how African Grey parrots do look like and provide some interesting short information about this wonderful and very intelligent birds .I have no idea,why some members had rated all of this 3 images with 4*,i know it is much too high indeed.But i was not looking for any ratings at all,trust me.

Thanks for the thought, Hugh, but I went on a commercial trip with several other English speakers and the guides speak pretty well anything [I doubt that stretches to anything in these islands other than English - but you know what I mean.]
I never felt hte slightest hint of danger.
Cheers
David

You know it is amazing, last Sunday we had 17 degree Celsius, we neither do believe, that it is snowing for two days now. It was just three days ago, when I took those sunny pics! Thanks for your comments, have a really good evening.

it is good to know I took you back in time on a time-machine, although I am far from being Mr. Wells. The place we took the picture is untamed, beautiful, sure you'd like because it is how I imagine Ireland after my readings :)
Thank you for your lines. Have a wonderful day!
