    You've image linked to the webpage there - not the image.

    Right click on the image, and then "Copy Image Address"

    That'll give you the link to use within the image tags for boards.

    Think below is your link

    There's a thing I've often wondered about;
    How in God's name do you come up with a name like Ballyferriter from a
    beautiful name like An bualitín?

    An Buailtín = the little dairy place

    Ballyferriter = the townland of the Ferriters (an Anglo-Norman family)

    Two entirely different meanings. Think Baile Àtha Cliath and Dubh Linn.
