We took this photograph from inside the car near Caherdaniel in County Kerry, the other week.
I of course duly informed the car passengers that these were the: Skellig Isles. You know the one's that they filmed some of the recent Star Wars film locations there. I am going to apply for the 2016 Bunty prize for getting my location/destination wrong, for a change.
These are of course the: Scariff Isles. They haven't been occupied since about 1911 when the last census was held there. I get fed up about rural living and having no basic amenities like (make it short Dave!): no public transport, a pub, a shop, street lights, a village hall or even a village... But imagine living with your family and nothing but yourself and your livestock and the fishes and the sea birds? So you could become a poet, philosopher or a painter (wood-chip hung for five pound a roll) or even a smuggler?
Do you think country living is too isolated?
Time for a song.
Here's the real Skellig Isles sung by second favourite Irish band: Clannad. Well Thin Lizzy are obviously my favourite from Ireland. Both bands I have seen four times: once for Thin Lizzy and 3 times for Clannad. All at Manchester Apollo funnily enough. Enjoy.
