Which is probably why there was one on the roof the day I left the cottage. [...] […] Rain leaves puddles in the grass and wagtails aren’t usually far from water.

Then it hit me that I'd have to be home first.It's not easy to lose time,money or heart as there's only so much of the first two.It's even tougher to lose heart but I suspect you have more of it left than you know.

Its funny, but I can picture almost everything that you're discussing, over time I've just forgotten some of the details. Sorry to hear that things are not working out at the cottage - I hope you find somewhere else that you enjoy as much. Cheers - Mark Thanks for sharing Eolai.

We could taste the toast and tea, smell the sea, and hear the bleating of the sheep. Maybe your calling is not exclusively painting on canvas? Good luck & keep us posted! You're in my thoughts & prayers. You romanced us with your 20 day fling. We could taste the toast and tea, smell the sea, and hear the bleating of the sheep.

I would love to live in that part of the world one day and I thank you for letting me live through you for this short time, it was a lovely adventure. Please remember that wherever you are your story continues and if it's in Ireland I'd still like you to continue. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

Had I known things would have ended like this I wouldn't have launched this series. I only threw the first day up because I had it to hand and it saved me writing something else. Then things snowballed. The entries over the last week were longer than they would have been had life at the cottage continued. I don't like giving up on dreams before they've even started, but I've lost a lot of money, a lot of time, and a lot of heart. Dog-dog is doing great. Depending on the days ahead I might expand later on just what went wrong and why something as simple as a leaky roof was enough to end it all. It's now a week later and it's fair to say that I could be happier, but I've been concentrating on trying to start a new chapter. As is my way, I will probably have news of that soon. However as it took months to effect the move to the cottage, sadly a move to another cottage somewhere else in Ireland simply isn't feasible. And that’s it.
