Harsh. Spent a good few hours driving around, bringing back lots of memories - took a picture of my dad's old house - Mrs TMR thinks the coutryside is utterly beautiful and can't get over how tidy it is. You litter here, you have a good chance of being shot! The red, white and blue kerbs raised here eyebrows too!

Currently sitting in a pub in Strangford, waiting for the little ferry to take us across to Portaferry.

And the sun is still shining. Unheard of!
