    Hah! Thats the clue. Get that and you'll get the area.

    I will hold my hands up and say I was being a little devious when I mentioned that people in the west of the county should find it easy. Its not in the west of the county ;)

    Thats it........I think. I was trying to find the little parking area that I took the photo from on google maps and bing maps but couldnt get it. They must have constructed that parking spot fairly recently.

    recently or years ago?

    Registered Users Posts: 413 ✭✭MeteoritesEire


    have a feeling it was many years ago though can't nail it down-info seems scant about it
    the thing with urban myth type stories like this is it's quite easy for one mans observation to become like a Chinese whisper and get blown out of proportion.Someone may have seen a meteor fall over the lake but it was likely many many miles away and it's very difficult(or impossible) to judge even for seasoned observers.Triangulation from different observers is really the only way to know for sure where an object may have passed or landed.

    its Lough Mulreavy on the road from Aghyaran to Laghey Barr through Killeter Forest looking towards Fermanagh. Lough Derg is just beyond this over the hill..

    I was going to ask would an IOU note be ok!

    got an email from boards telling me that "flyirishman" posted in here and yet there is no post and seemingly no user of that name.

    what has happened here, was his post deleted and he dismembered? unmembered? demembered?

    ok here's a pic to keep it on topic
