I may as well give a little plug to my own YouTube channel that is in its infancy. I hope to record a few shots while walking and upload it for you to see. I'm comfortable with the Dji osmo pocket that I bought before Christmas. It is so tiny you can fit it in …

Weekend Watch #68 – The Journey
When I discovered the Camino de Santiago nearly 10 years ago, this was one of the first videos on YouTube I found and I was enthralled by the photos. This slideshow was created by a Belfast man who walked the Camino Frances in 2007. The music is apt, considering we are approaching March 17th. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS_UVpBLTtw …
Weekend Watch #60 – Christmas Ideas for a Pilgrim
So it's that time of year. If you are a pilgrim or you have a friend or family member who is a long-distance walker or pilgrim, this video may be helpful.

Howth Head – A Camino on my doorstep…

So how did you hear about The Camino de Santiago?
I've been asked to go into this in brief in the Camino talk next week so I think it's an ideal time to post about it. The majority of people have found out about Santiago and it's many Ways from the amazing Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez's film, 'The Way'. Others may have read about it …

Leafy Loop, Durrow…
The last few months have been the busiest I have been work-wise. The heavy storms in December to February have taken its' toll on me as well as lot of people in Ireland. Sometimes, working in property claims is not all it is made out to be. But now that things have calmed down, I …
Table Quiz / GAA League
Just thought I'd give an update on how things are going now that I have 6 weeks to go to the event. I am on few days annual leave so it is best to get this out now as I never will otherwise. I have a few things in the pipeline with regards to fundraising …
