I work part-time as a special needs teacher in a tiny two classed school which is always a delight. it still leaves me plenty of time to walk in the mountains, skim pebbles on the sea (bad but enthusiastic), wrestle with the ever encroaching greenery in the garden ... and take loads of photos!
2015: Time for a bit of an edit. I'm now into my 5th year of Blipping having weathered fluctuating mojos, grey winters, and changes in Blip itself. I've since retired from teaching and am able to spend even more time doing what I really like which turns out to be photography, walking, exploring, a bit of writing, and finding out the fascinating history of this beautiful area.
2018 - time for another edit. Currently attempting to visit and a record all the holy wells in County Cork - around 356 of them!
I'm also trying to learn Irish. - so hard.
