Boyle - A Walking Tour
This was the cover of a very informative, but out-of-print booklet authored by the late Ann Toolan. In the book, photography is credited to David Knight, publishing by Ireland West Tourism and printing by Purcell Print.
• Over the next several days I hope to refer (by quotation) to some of the contained information so that viewers may read historical details about several Boyle locations as published in the booklet. Where possible I will accompany each article with an 'as it is now' photograph.
• The booklet and its photos are copyrighted, and of course I will not knowingly breach copyrights.

Our own Chris O’Dowd plays the part of David Walsh, the Sunday Times journalist who helped take down cyclist Lance Armstrong. We've been waiting a while for this one. "The Program" is due for general cinema release soon.
Sligo's Lough Key Forest??
Irish independent report: "Filming is underway for the O'Donnell's highly anticipated new reality tv show, 'Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip’. The couple have embarked on a two week tour of Ireland's B&B's for their new television series." "While in the West, one of their challenges was to tour Sligo's Lough Key Forest on segways." ... oops!! Since when did Lough Key Forest have a Sligo address?
