| We stayed with Rosemary's sister Katharine, husband Brian and delightful daughters Freya and Esme in Belfast, and then drove across Northern Ireland to Eire and the County Donegal coast. Here we set off in two small boats across a short stretch of sea to a small island (about 1km x 1km) to stay for three nights. |

| The girls showed James how to hunt crabs using a line and a slither of bacon as bait. | One day we walked right round the island. In one of the bays (not pictured here) stumps of ancient trees have been revealed by the washing away of the peat so that it looks as if the trees grew on the beach. |

| The road and electricity are new to the island as is mains water, which arrived just as we were staying there. This is the house we stayed in. | The Reverend Dr. Norman Taggart and his wife Margaret, former mission partners to Sri Lanka from the Irish Methodist Conference (1990-4), came to visit us in Belfast on Thursday evening May 22nd. Earlier that day we had been into Freya and Esme's Primary School. See picture in July Newsletter. |
