I've been twice, both amazing. First time we drove to Fishguard and got the ferry to rosslaire. We went to the ring of kerry and there was something depressing about all the little packs of soap in the B&Bs, the people seemed fed up of catering to the tourists.
Then we went to connemara and it was amazing, I loved it. Like my favourite bits of England but so much better. 10 miles of nothing, no changes. And so silent and dark.
We went tgo some out of the way pub and got talking to an incredibly drunk lad who lived in Cricklewood now and was visiting. He was mourning nit being able to see the sea in London.
The 2nd time my mate invited me to his house in donegal and we were there for nye.
We stopped in Belfast on way over to see all the murals. Bit on top we were getting followed but nothing serious just children.
In donegal, all the kids in the pub (which doubled as sweet shop) were calling me jayzus (I have long hair) . Then we went to ardara and I was doing drawings in the pubs of the session players and they were into it and bought me drinks.
