    Cool photo, I'm a big fan of this place too, particularly when it's windy.

    Great memories of fishing between Slade and Hook in the 80's and the mackerel jumping on to the rocks, camping in the field beside the pier with a gang of lads and hitting the discos in the hall in Fethard, and fair play to Billy Colfer who brought us out the odd day in his boat.

    Great memories a magical place.
