As always happens we made our way for an early morning walk to Kilcooly today. It was as ever a wonderful experience. Benson was not on form as there were too many deer crossing the path and he missed all of them. Anyway we made it to the Abbey after stepping through about a thousand tonnes of cow shit.
It’s a magical place steeped in hundreds of years of history. Eventually it was closed as a working monetary during the Cromwell years and turned into a folly for the main house.
At the right time you get the best view of the main hall and can imagine the sunlight streaming through the original stained glass window. The carvings were done by a famous Tipperary stone mason For that reason the office of public works maintain the abbey.
I’m a good catholic boy innit! So obvs on a Friday it’s gotta be a fish dish. Todays selection was Aldi breaded cod with crinkle cut fries (both oven baked) and homemade tartar sauce. Absolute yummines even if I do say so myself.
