bunbeg

we are moving to Bunbeg.  The house that our flat is located in got sold this past January.  We decided we wanted to move instead of signing a new lease because there are some serious problems that needed to be addressed and the new owner didn't seem interested.  He bought this building without even looking at it which I thought was crazy. Who does that anyway?   Downstairs is an office like setup that has been vacate since we moved here.  Also being in a long lock down created its own problems for us too.  We were looking but couldn't view anything because of Covid.  Then this place came up and we went to see it and decided it would be a good move for us.  I'll be taking a break from blogging but will return with lots of new photos.  Have a great time blogging, taking photos, writing stories or whatever it is you do and enjoy.

bank of ireland

 is going to close down 88 branches around the country and one of them is this one in Dungloe.  Most people do online banking these days.  Another bank, AIB, have mobile banks that visit the towns.  For people who wish to use the bank services, An Post (the postal service) will have a contract with the bank so their services will still be available.

road work

we were on a bus the other day and the road work was still going on with no end in sight.  There are lights set up to allow people travelling in the opposite direction a chance to go forward.  The red light was set for 4 minutes and it seemed to last forever.  Less than 2 minutes to go.
