Love your pictures of the two kittens, the cottage and the gardens and especially love the recollection of the story behind the name 'Widows row'. As for the Irish being fertile, they did not have '60 satellite TV channels', so I guess they had to... er... find other distractions. ;)<br />Annie (aka Kelly Ann Scott)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07308614349153087178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074989774366743036.post-88687988870801384042014-11-23T16:30:26.237-08:002014-11-23T16:30:26.237-08:00What an idyllic place!
