Galway Blogs

Two Galway-related blogs I’ve only just come across are the Moore Group’s and Julian Gough’s. They’ve both been around for a while by the looks of it but I only found the Moore Group’s one from a trackback on Damien’s, which led me to Julian’s. Both subscribed to now.
Have a read of the Moore Group’s excavations of Eyre Square and the centuries old skeletons they found there.

Also best of luck to Jazz Biscuit.

Galway Circus Project destroyed by joyriders

Galway Circus Project was destroyed last week by joyriders crashing into the back of Karen’s van, which then caught fire.
I’ve known Karen for most of the time she’s been in Galway and circus and clowning is her life. She dedicated a huge amount of time and personal resources into establishing the project. Many kids have benefitted from her training over the years.
She’s had her livelihood destroyed by scumbags who obviously have enough free time to go joyriding at 6am on a Monday.
I’m really sorry Karen.

I love living in a country where people don’t agree with their own answers!


Hoo yeh, the summer madness goes on and on, and I’m still hiding away from the crowds, exploiting the hell out of the builders’ holidays
