Boyle Pleasure Grounds, Boyle, Co. Roscommon

Sep.1.2010  by  Peter Donegan

Without any doubt, this is one of the finest public parks I have ever visited in Ireland. It’s not massive. It’s not received too much notoriety, at least that I know of anyway. But for me it was an absolute gem as I searched for a quite spot to picnic. In the park lies a [...]

Trinity Island, Lough Key, Boyle, Co. Roscommon

Aug.31.2010  by  Peter Donegan

The image above is Trinity Island. Doesn’t seem like much and possibly because it’s a little more out of sight than Castle Island, also on Lough key, it maybe doesn’t get the same attention. I didn’t see it on too many of the tourist trails either….[?] I found out about it because I got talking [...]

Aug.23.2010  by  Peter Donegan

I had an email in today reminding me that October was just around the corner…. And it is. With that comes tree planing season. That said, this photo was taken last week and there is great potential for me to end on an entirely different subject-ish  My idea here is just to get you thinking of [...]

Strawberry Plant Babies

Aug.18.2010  by  Peter Donegan

It can really get on my goat when the grow your own and save yourself money marketing brigade continue to thrust their [not so] ideal[s] upon the ordinary Joe punter gardener. Let me put this in context, when a bag of compost costs €6 and the strawberry plants cost €3 and you or I may [...]

Bird Boxes

Aug.16.2010  by  Peter Donegan

The bird box has always been something I’ve queried. I don’t know why. I just feel/ felt that they would always be better off making their own. Is that fair to say….? Either or, I wanted two in the garden just for the craic of it. You know, to see would they come. These two [...]

Aug.10.2010  by  Peter Donegan

I met with Paddy Courtney in Portmarnock recently. Anything for the great outdoors is always my attitude and when I realised I could ask Paddy my 10 new green questions and also have a giggle at the same time I was all for it. The other reality is that I really like what 7up are [...]
