I've looked on google maps where it is you're taking these photos from & "That's a grand" place to live, very lucky. 8)

Hey Murph......I reckon you should enter your workshop in the Model Mayhem competition for ....'The womb with da best view'  {-) ...but we are only envious O0 ... one could literally just sit & watch the world go by :o

I must admit I had to Google Cobh, as I had no idea where in the world it was.....and the spikey green shrubbery had me even more confused........hardly a local specie?  ok2 ..........Derek
