Is Desi Walls still performing at the White House Pub? My family so enjoyed his entertainment during a visit in August of '04. We purchased a CD and would like to purchase another if possible. How is Desi doing? He is quite a character! Sincerely, Elaine Campbell of Greeley, Pennsylvania, USA

Cork Sports in Cork
Posted: Sat January 24, 2009 06:20 PM UTC
I am going on holiday to Cork for a week in February (10th - 17th) and I was wondering if there were any sporting events on at that time. I must admit I would like to see either some hurling or some Gaelic football, although I read somewhere that the hurling team were on strike due to management issues. Has this been resolved and if it has where would I go to watch a live match?

I would also be interested in knowing whether there is a New Age shop of some sort in Cork and where that may be too?
Thanks for any help

County Cork Pre-Christian Ruins
Posted: Tue June 17, 2008 01:59 AM UTC
Hello-I will be staying in Knocklong, Limerick, which will be our base and travelling by day trips by car to the west coast, Dingle Peninsula,
Ring of kerry, southern coast - Cobh, and one day in Dublin by train. Where are the best ruins to see? I think it may be too far to go to the Hills of Tara and other locations in Meath and Louth, althought that sounds like the prime really old historic areas. We are just taking a train into Dublin for the day, and trying to cut costs, so we don't really want to stay over---but, I don't want to miss whatever is really spectacular. We are flying into Shannon 6/21. Thanks.

County Cork churches and graveyards
Posted: Wed June 4, 2008 08:47 PM UTC
Hi, My relatives were from Boherbue, near Kanturk, Cork. Can't find a parish near there. I am looking for cemetaries where I might find graves of relatives.
Also, anyone know of really old churches in/near Knocklong, County Limerick, that may still have mass on Sundays? Or where I might look for such?

Kinsale Your location
Posted: Sun May 25, 2008 12:01 PM UTC
We are looking forward to visiting your beautiful city -- we will be there in approximately 2 weeks. We do not need overnight accommodations, but will be stopping by your location -- what street are you on?
We will probably need suggestions for a place to have lunch, preferably outdoor (weather permitting). Is there a restaurant overlooking the water?
Many thanks.

Cork Short Break in Cork
Posted: Tue May 6, 2008 08:51 AM UTC
Hi, my wife and I ( late 60s ) will be coming from Edinburgh for about four days in September. Is the airport the best place to hire a car ? No accommodation booked so what is the best way to explore the area ? E.G. One night B&Bs ? What is the going rate for 3* B&B ? For such a short stay would we be better off using public transport to and from airport and just book day trips from a B&B based in the city?

Kinsale supermarket delivery available?
Posted: Thu April 10, 2008 04:43 PM UTC
Hi - we are visiting for a few days later this month and wondered if any supermarkets in the locality of Kinsale will take orders and deliver to our accomodation?? We are staying at Castle Quay which is to the west (i think?) of Kinsale. We want to spend as little time doing the boring but essential stuff and concentrate on seeing all there is to see!!

Cork info on day trips out of cork using public transportation
Posted: Sun March 23, 2008 11:07 PM UTC
Hello,
I'll be in Cork for a few weeks and am looking for day trips using public transportation. I'm already planning visits Cobh and Kinsale. From the center of Kinsale, how long (at a leisurely pace) does it take to walk to James Fort? What about Charles Fort?
Any other day trips by bus I should consider?
Thanks.
