    Lovely part of Ireland. Rolling hills and tranquil lakes. Nevin Maguires restaurant not too far away for the best food in Ireland. Enniskillen for shopping, Marble Arch, Florencecourt, Culcaigh Mountain, the Shannon Pot.

    Really nice place.

    .....so it is

    Remote places aren't for everybody. Most of Ye wouldn't like it out here in the middle of nowhere. Nothing out here for ye except fear, panic and death. Places like Kiltyclogher are no joke. The Irish countryside could eat you alive without warning. Look what happened to those army lads up the Mourne Mountains last week just gone. They nearly got killed up there by wet Irish mist. The rural Irish countryside can kill you just as easily as the Sahara desert can. Kill you worse because some of ye probably think you can handle it. Big mistake. Stay away from here if ye know whats good for ye. Ye've no idea what's out here. Ye don't want to find out either, F**king barn owl out here will slash open your face quicker than some Islamic state groupie, and those f**kn owls can see in the dark, they don't need streetlights, restaurants, knives or militant religious fundamentalism neither

    My mother is from kilty and we used to spend a bit of time there when we were kids. When I was really young, when the troubles up north were bad, I remember the army (irish) in the town. No idea what they were up to, but I remember asking one of the soldiers did they have any grenades. Also the sound of helicopters - bizarre as that may seem - was just like China beach if any one remembers that - there was a British army Base not far as well. The bridge at the border got blown up a few times by the brits as they reckoned the ira were using it apparently. Fine big statue of Sean mcdermott there as he was born up the road, with bullet holes too. People are lovely there, place was a ghost town, with massive emigration - mostly to sligo!!
