Tied Up


The gales meant that there were high seas over the weekend on the west coast. The Celtic Explorer was docked - Ireland's only deep-sea research vessel is in the process of a 35,000km ocean survey, though not on Saturday.



Any time I see a naval ship moored in Galway, there always seems to be a young fellow wandering up the gangplank with a pile of Supermac's bags. The L E Niamh is just back from Liberia, having helped to set up the Irish UN operation there. No doubt the crew re-aquainted themselves fully with Galway once they got back.
