Looking for car and driver in Ireland

Sunset over the hills of Clare
St Mary's Cathedral in Killarney

The work on this wonderful church commenced before the famine in the eighteen forties as the foundations were laid that far back. During the famine itself many starving people came here and camped on the site as it was holy ground. Here, many of them died, men women and children, and they were laid to rest where they died. Their is a memorial in the grounds to commemorate them and many is the silent prayer whispered for their souls. The Cathedral was completed in the early nineteen hundreds and if you get to Killarney then do visit this magnificent church.

Sorry....sorry....sorry....i have been missing for a few days but only because i have been busy. My job involves a lot more than driving and at the moment the time i have to spend dealing with enquiries is top priority as this is what will make my year ahead successfull. I must thank all those who do contact me whether or not they actually decide to use my services or not. You cannot win them all, but many people do come back again at a later date when they know what it involves. Chauffeurdrive holidays are special and do make that visit much more comfortable and interesting, if you have the right chauffeur. You need someone who knows the country, its history, past and present, and who will look after you as though you were family. It is extra special to get that individual attention when your group is smallr as in chauffeurdrive. It is a great advantage to be able to make little changes to your itinerary as you go and not be be bound to a strict inflexible plan. I like to think that people have special memories of their time in Ireland with me.
St Patrick's day is fast approaching and our Irish cousins from the USA will be arriving in large numbers over the next few days. It is lovely to see the bands in their colorful uniforms and the high-stepping majorettes parading through our towns and cities. There will be plenty of Guiness flowing over the period and many a hang-over before the week is out. The St Patrick Day celebrations are unique and worldwide and like no other celebration. Everybody wants to be Irish whether you are from Dingle or New York, Sydney, London, or Chicago. Your colour or your beliefs do not matter, your sex or your age irrelevant. If you do not know of any Irish heritage in your own line, do not worry....we will adopt you anyway.
Our weather this year so far has been really nice and over the last few weeks especially. We have had many sunny and bright days and Spring has been very much in the air. Even as i write now,though it is cooler than recently, the sun is shining and all is well. Lets hope that it stays that way for St Patrick's day. Our new Premier was sworn in today by the President, and may God Bless his work, and his term in office. This government needs time and it also needs our patience and understanding. They did not create the mess we are in and they need our support to get us out of it. We will do it, but it will be painful. I cannot think of a better time to ask our Irish American friends and relations to

BUY IRISH

It is not only good, it is a good thing to do.
