Fáilte go hÉirinn

All the signs in the two official languages make it clear:

Welcome to Ireland
Not quite half way to Canada, but my first stop on the way.

But why Kilkenny?
Just to visit my little estate here…..

…O.K. not so little and definitely not mine…

Built in the first decade of the 13^th century and residence of the Butler family for almost 600 years (till 1969 when it was sold for 50£ to Kilkenny).

So now, why Kilkenny?

Because I wanted to see the lively and at the same quiet town, where the Story of the short film “Bodies” is based. A nice little cineastic gem directed by B. Welby-Delimere with Rory Fleck-Byrne and Declan Conlon as the two funeral directors Conor and Ronan.

Rain and harsh winds at the St. Canice’s Cathedral and soon after some sunshine between the clouds reminds me.. If you don’t like the weather, just wait a few hours…

To B & Rory I wish good fortune and funding to develop “Bodies” as planned into a feature…. Check out thieir Teaser!

Normally I’m not the one feeling cold fast. But why the hell ist everybody out on the streets at Saturday night in light Suits, T-Shirts or short skirts??? We have just a bit above 0°C here!!!

Maybe I’m not cut for Irish weather….
