We made it to Clonmel and The Apple Farm where owner Con Traas has given us free camping for the night. Today's jaunt was just around 50 miles and a lot less challenging than yesterday. I have a feeling that we might partake of the very locally brewed tipple after a warm shower and rub down from le soigneur - he is taking his role very seriously.

I should give a big mention to Patsy Kelly from Carrick on Suir tourist office. The gentleman met us at Marty's Pantry and provided a substantial meal for us all and the good people of Carrick were very generous in contributing to our collection bucket, mostly in silence if you get my drift. Betty and Brian from the Laurels B&B in Kilkenny not only gave us a big discount for last night's bed but also contributed a large note to our collection as we left this morning.

More to follow when the bracelet jaune is presented.

    1. Wicklow sure was tough, but the toughest adversary is the Irish Summer. Send some sun please!
