Complete relaxation

I’m over in the motherland for the best part of a week trying to relax and de-stress. We got the ferry from Holyhead on friday afternoon. Stayed at my mum’s on friday night and saturday morning we drove down to Cahir in county Tipperary (It’s a long way) for my mate clav’s wedding which as expected resulted in copious amounts of alcohol. Sunday morning with one hell of a hangover we drove via Limerick and Ennis to my Dad’s place in county Clare. Since then I have been chilling, diving (with Burren Adventures again :) ), eating, snorkelling, swimming, fishing, reading and sleeping. It really is nice to get out of the office setting and get away from masses of XSLT and C#. Don’t get me wrong I love my job but sometimes I just need a nice break.

While here I have also set my dad up on skype using the Easy Blue Box which I also have - hello free phone calls :) . It was myself and Gill’s 6th anniversary yesterday which we celebrated with a fantastic vegetarian meal in the HolyWell Italian restaurant in Ennistymon, on the way back we stopped at the Cliffs of Moher to watch the sunset over the Arran Islands. I really do love it here and plan on making many more trips this and next year - especially now I have my own snorkelling set (courtesy of the wonderful Lidl).
