There was some lad from Tralee that killed his baby mamma and jumped into the sea when the Gardai Went to nab him a while back.No body ever recovered,so, perhaps.Or perhaps he is living as a modern day Count of Monte Cristo,probably not though.

Hopefully it's just debris from the recent flooding and bad weather, and not some (new) bad news for anyone.

Not that having a relatives bones wash up on a beach is ever good news..

Human remains were torn up as graveyards across the west were battered by the gale-force winds and pounding seas over the weekend. Cemeteries across south Connemara in particular were severely hit as roads and pathways were ripped up and boulders thrown up by the sea which smashed into graves and monuments.

At Muirios graveyard in Baile na hAbhann, coffins and human bones were exposed by the high seas which crashed onto the burial ground.

It would have been funny if it were an empty bottle of coke that a native had found instead,hi-jinks to be sure.
