Annoyingly, Don, it runs along the southern and western coast of 
Ireland. I know as a former all year round swimmer that there can be a 3 
degrees celsius difference in favour of the warmer west. Your quisling 
ex President has a place there - near where my brother moors his boat.

Those pics taken today with my 1977 Jupiter-9 showed me I need to get a 
better Sony or compatible f2 85mm portrait lens or else a better 
adaptor. Anybody out there tried the 85/1.8?
