Unfortunately, Mr. Weldon’s offer of a guided tour of his favourite watering holes was turned down, as well as the proffered free rendition of his one-man show, ‘Last Stand of the Croppies on Tara Hill’, but the gang still managed to pick up loads of relevant experiences and information at the Newgrange National Monument and Bective Abbey and the boreens, in between.
