Ah, the lovely rain-soaked Irish June
Just look at that.
I had mentioned that this June is less than the tourist might expect in the way of sunshine and summer weather, but this Sunday when the skies opened up and a veritable monsoon poured forth onto the earth I really began to wonder about global climate change.

In JUNE, people.
I ask you - is this normal weather?
I think it’s time we all read the eco-travelogue.
