Ireland is a great place.
We are out all day on windswept beaches and spend
the evenings in cosy pubs.
I like lying in front of the fire, drinking Guinness out
of a saucer and eating crisps.
Can life get better than this?
RP
Here is his travel book
We have included some of the sights RP has seen on his visit, The Giant's Causeway and a typical rural countryside landscape. Famous Irish folk include Van Morrison, Oscar Wilde and the characters of Father Ted, one of RP's favourite comedies.
The postcard was inspired by a photo I saw when researching this project, and was hand drawn and coloured with Distress Inks and white acrylic paint.
Thank you for visiting and do follow the other travellers on this around the world adventure (link in sidebar).
Lovely postcard, and reminded me of my dog, Scruffy. She had been a stray, and was very fond of beer. I suppose she went begging in pubs and got beer to drink. But she soon settled down to a sober and luxurious dog's life with us! Valerie
