It’s the fag-end of the wettest August since records began and I’m fighting off the end-of-summer blues. After a manic and very successful Summer Music on the Shannon 2008 three weeks of which I spent on-campus in UL, and a three day holiday shared between Baile Bhúirne and Killarney, it’s back to the grind stone!

Please please have the rain stop! Please please please let the sun blaze down for the next 6 weeks! Is that too much to ask for?
