The vilmoura boys and girls return home safe and sound.
the darby o gills golfing society bi annual foreign trip occured last week and the general concensus was that it was a major success. all the arrangements were excellent and many thanks to our captain christy lehane. Pat Gill our el presidente was in his usually quiet form but was believe to have broken out on the odd occasion and has enforced a strict "no dancing on tables " regime since his return (strange !)the highlight of the wek was pat gill taking 20 euro off gene croinn (some say he had since his communion) for scoring 78 points over the 4 days. it does not pay to show no respect to the president. overall though mr croinn and the president got on "very" well and were seen in many late night spots together!!! the golf course of vila sol/ pinhal/ laguna/ and millenimun were excellent and were enjoyed by all members. our late nite rendevous the "cabin " was a great spot and the band playing there nightly were unreal. A special mention for "natasha" our beautiful ukrainian bar maid. she was offered "honouary" membership of our society by the lads! we hope to go to "Myrtle Beach" in 2 yrs time get saving now. for now good bye and god bless abrigado!

Welcome to Darby's blog!

Hi to all, from Darby O' Gill's Hotel in Killarney, Co. Kerry, Ireland. http://www.darbyogillskillarney.com/

I'll soon be telling you about our Christmas party nights, (lots of booze, good food, live music, and dancing all night!) ; the craic will be mighty!

We'll also be doing a rather posh (-ish) Gala dinner for New Years Eve, an excuse to get out your glad rags, sip Champagne and kiss as many good looking people as you can when the clock strikes 12.

If you've stayed with us in the past, it would be lovely to hear from you.

If you're thinking of visiting Killarney (a beautiful place!) and would like any info or advice, I'll give you my biased opinion :-)
