Hunting with the Brays

Bray hunt

Horses, hounds, hyper, hot ports, no foxes

Masters, Whips, Huntsmen, riders, nervous, ready to go

Wide green fields, let them go

Ditches, fences, cross poles, stone walls, some falls

Yelling, bleating, blowing, cantering

Gates opening, closing, lush farmland, careful, hoof marks

“Oh my god, we going down there”?

Swearing, sweating, splashing

“That wasn’t too bad, thank god we’re back”

Hosing down. Winding down – in the Powerscourt Arms

The Super Spud

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Ireland is the spiritual home of the potato. We grow them better here than anywhere else

News  that consumption of potatoes is falling is hard to believe

The potato is super charged with energy.  At 75 kcal per 100 gms, its right at the top of the vegetable tree.

Potatoes are healthy, full of vitamin C, high in potassium and great value for money

Get your day off to a flyer with Irish Potato Cakes for breakfast. See  http://www.thedailyspud.com – spud full of recipes, info and fun. Well worth a visit

Potatoes are versatile. Think how many different ways there are to cook them.
