(Neasa) Aoibhin Garrihy's parents are from Clare, she is a regular visitor to the county as she has family in Doolin and Bellharbour.

Seemingly he was a fan and friend of John O'Donoghue (anam cara) and spent two weeks here last year. There is a philospher living in Ballyvaughan who runs some type of retreats/courses for people. Bree from Desperate Housewives was holidaying there this summer.

It was a nicer kind of American stopover and worth a lot to the teashop in question not to mention the local freelance journalists!

It is really great to see that Ballyvaughan is "back on the map" - no thanks to the NRA :rolleyes::mad:
