"Take me to Clare Island, the home of Granuaile, Its waters harbour fishes from the herring to the whale" The Green and Red of Mayo - The Sawdoctors. Granuaile was Grace O,Malley, an Irish historic figure, reputed to buried on Clare Island. Worth while checking out her story makes for a bit of interesting reading. On the subject of Connaght, there was an interesting piece in the Guardian travel section a few weeks ago about Leitrim, interesting fact that apparantly there is only one traffic light in Leitrim, which was installed approx 7 yrs ago and is only used on a part-time basis.
