    Gorse fires happen all the time when the weather has been dry for a while-nothing major. Am sure there are threads in here from Gorse fires before over the past few years.
    If the heather/gorse was dry enough and the sun was intense enough a piece of glass could have started it....

    I had to rate this thread. More of it is off-topic than on.

    But on topic, I didn't think Ireland had a particularly dry Winter, did it?

    Poor foxes are always hunted. Poor little fellows! Innocent little balls of fluff.

    I can only remeber 4 or 5 times that it really really poured rain. I would defo say we had a dry winter.

    I just saw this thread and thought it was a pity about the word "mountains" being in the topic...

    Camping this early in the year. I doubt it.
    I was walking in Crone Wood on Saturday and there were at least ten dome tents scattered along the route below Djouce. The weather this weekend was perfect for a bit of camping.

    perhaps the dreaded hunters were hunting with fire and not dogs?
