I was lucky enough to be able to take early retirement on 30 March and intend spending much of each year now in Strandhill, Co.Sligo where my daughter will shortly give birth to her first child. This will be our second grandchild  and the first to be Irish. Any Pals living in the area?

Hi Dave,

I don't live in the area, I'm about an hour and a half drive away in Mayo, but I sometimes work in Sligo. Lived there for a while about 10 years ago. Hope you like great countryside, mountains, surfing, fishing and golf. You'll be in heaven in Strandhill if you do!

All the best with your early retirement and new grandchild

I'm sure you will really enjoy Sligo.

Hi John

Thanks for your message.

We know Strandhill well as our daughter has lived there for 7 years.

We decided long ago that it is where we would like to spend retirement time, it is in an area we like very much.

My wife plans to do a lot of painting and I am aiming to get down on paper the music composition thats in my head, inspired by Knocknarea, Sligo Bay and Kilaspugsprone Church.

Don't live in the area but when you get here and you do a bit of travelling you are more than welcome to kilkenny and its surrounds (cead mile failte) a thousand welcomes and all that blarney and congrats on the grandchild
