2012 has arrived - and with it lots of hopes for the future. Just before Christmas we applied for planning permission for our new house and for a workshop building which we are hoping to build and that we have been- and still are- busy fundraising for. If all goes well we may be able to start building this summer...!!!
After Christmas it is always a quiet time in the Community. Some people go home to their families and others take time for walks and enjoy a bit more of a reflective time. Unfortunately it was all accompanied by a lot of rain this year - and some of us seemed always to be trying to dodge the showers.
This year , the Carnival band went out on the Wren for us and collected € 470 and I understand that some children in Mayo went out to collect for us .Thank you all for your help and support.
On New Year's Eve those left in the Community and our many visitors joined the throng to see the fireworks in town and afterwards celebrated the arrival of the New Year in Dingle.
Now we are slowly returning to normal life.The first visitors have left and soon everyone will be coming back from their holidays . All our workshops will be starting up again and we look forward to a host of new activities on our land in 2012.
