November 5th. Hungry Hill:
Samhain the Celtic festival and an appropriate time for the Fianna
to be amidst the hills. For our Samhain amble we headed for Hungry
Hill in beautiful West Cork. We were delighted to welcome new members
to the tribe, Attila from the Germanic tribes and Conán from
Dubh Linn. Fionn himself decided to grace our company as did Queen
Maedhbh, Crazy Horse, Wise Aengus, Oscar and Diarmuid. We started
up through Fionn's Crack, sorry Gully and when we reached the top
had a majestic view of the Beara Peninsula and Bantry Bay. At this
stage some pseudo intellectuals decide to take over (Queen Maedhbh
and her henchman Aengus) but their coup didn't last long.
Much of the rest of the very pleasant walk was taken up by members
of the gang of four harassing Diarmuid but as always he rose above
their taunting. We ascended slowly in a glorious autumnal evening
and dined satisfactorily in a local hostelry.
Finally this may be the last log, due to Ma Jongs gang of four's
censorship but the regional committee will soften their cough for
them shortly. Tiocfaidh ar Lá!
