The photo library is back online! I've had to install it from scratch again, so some of the photos that were on the original I have to find and upload.
In the meantime enjoy. If you have any photos etc you would like to place on the library, please contact me through the 'Contact Us' web page.
I've also added links to Sean Cassidy's Website (a local artist and photographer) and Norman Barry's website with beautiful photos from the Boyne Valley and other areas of Ireland - Web Links - Other Websites of Interest. |

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
May the Irish hills caress you.
May her lakes and rivers bless you.
May the luck of the Irish enfold you.
May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.

My little story is not about the Tinkers of today. I am not sure if there are any Tinkers left in Ireland. The ones that I am talking about are the old time Tinkers of the late thirties and forties.
They came every so often to Ballinaglera and the road that I remember them on is the Slievenakilla Rd. Just off the Dowra to Drumshambo cut off. There are a few reasons why they picked this spot to camp on, first it was close to the stores Rynn's and Mulveys, second there is a wide grassy area from the road to the shough, (you know what the shough is) this wide grassy area gave them enough room to pitch their tents without blocking the road.
