Heard it first on a tape travelling to Tarbert; gloriously sunny day, looking out the window of the bus at the west coast scenery. Perfect (circle) moment

@nytimes: In 1944, just weeks before his son was born, Staff Sgt. John A. Tarbert of the Air Force died after his plane was attacked while flying over Germany. But he was accounted for only this year.

Tarbert Harbour between showers.

Westport beach on the Kintyre Peninsula- out for a motorcycle run round Loch Lomond , Rest and be Thankful , Inveraray , Minard and Tarbert- home via Tarbert ferry to Portavadie, Dunoon and Western Ferry to Gourock. 225 miles and sore bum. Lovely day’s run !!

I’ve been a couple of times Sheena, it just draws you back. I took ‘The Golden Road’ out of Tarbert on my way back to Leverburgh, and what a scenic cycle that was, fabulous route. Cycling over the mountains up to Tarbert was a different kettle of fish 😆

It was a good trip. Kenmare to Dingle to Tarbert to Doolin to Inis Mór to somewhere near Scarriff. 2001. IIRC I got home for the Ireland Holland game where we beat them with 10 men. I do need to go up and over Connor pass again though.

Don’t know it, although last time I was down that way I wasn’t that far from it - cycled from dingle to tarbert via the Connor pass and Tralee.
