Lovely!!
Of course, had I been standing there, I would’ve been faced with the dilemma of going inside with money, or making sure NOT to go inside with money.Did you buy any tweed while you were over there?
-
I did! While Margaret and I visited Clifden, a little artsy town in County Galway, I bought a lovely tweed jacket.

Had I joined your blog before your trip, I would’ve suggested that both you and your’s take full advantage of being over there in the midst of all those beautiful tweeds, and sadly, a dying craft, and have a full suit of tweed made for you.
I understand many of the little old ladies who weave, are retired and most of the ones left, are past retirement age.
I have two full suits, a jacket or three, and several caps. You could still smell the peat smoke on some of them.-
Well, the jacket I bought was an off-budget purchase as it was! But I will surely enjoy it for decades. Sad to hear that the weaving is a dying art.
