Wimbledon Ladys final today & i arrived in time to watch in TV in Dunmanus Cottage, West Cork. Remember Aunty Doll who built this house in 1960s, to return on holidays from her nursing job in London. Doll loved watching tennis on the black & white TV. Wimbledon was special with afternoon tea , strawberries + cream served by Flo. For some reason the local Garda used to call most afternoons during Wimbledon …& stay to end of matches. They were considered a bit odd in West Cork in 1970s to be watching tennis from London - now we watch in colour.

Danmark the Danish Sail Training Tall Ship… magnificent under sail.

The beautiful Danmark training ship is due to be in Bantry Bay tomorrow, Sunday, around 18h00 and will remain in the bay for a few days. So between this and the Spirit of Adventure cruise ship tomorrow, there will be plenty of maritime activity in the bay!

Why not plan a spin West to Bantry tomorrow to see the ships and enjoy some lunch or dinner in one of our lovely restaurants or pubs and make the most of your Sunday in Bantry?
