This is what happens to you when you eat too much at Christmas

Well the New Year is here and we are now, once again, looking forward to the Spring. Hopefully the remaining days of Winter will not be too severe but January and February can be very dangerous months in Ireland. Growing up as i did on the seafront in Salthill in Galway City i always associate January with gale force winds and high seas and flooding along the promenade and the Salthill park. February you could expect cold and frosty weather. I have vivid memories of March and the chilling, wet and windy weather which was our lot on many St Patrick's days when we would be dressed up in anything but warm clothes for the parade in which all the schools played their part. From April on we might expect a little better as the days grew longer and there would be more sunshine, and May could be really nice when it came good. I remember many nice Summers in those days and indeed many heat waves which seem to be a thing of the past. We swam a lot throughout the Summer months and that is something that many tourists find surprising, forgetting of course that we have the gulf stream off our west coast which keeps our waters nice and warm. Those were the days.
I have now finished touring with my latest group and they were very nice indeed and i know that they enjoyed our time together. Now for the next few weeks i will be dealing with enquiries for the coming season so if you are thinking about coming my way then it might be a good idea to give me a shout while the going is good. I look forward to hearing from you.
