james f Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Fantastic photos Alan, keep 'em coming. Any chance you could repost the very first ones sometime as they seem to have gotten lost. I'd love to see the ones of the Conor pass, been up there a few times and its pretty scary!. I'm guessing you go through Castleisland to get to Limerick? I was down there lately and drove the Limerick road which is one hell of a road now. Anyway good luck with the new job and keep that camera busy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 well from what ive seen its a way less buracuratic here, especially where farming is concerned people seem to be more freely able to go about their lives without all those outside influences that are imposing on european farmers. even take the amount of dirt bikes over here, if that was at home there would be war over noise, and detioration of trails etc etc but there every where over here. its defidently a way cheaper to live here, food is dirt cheap as is fuel and take car insurance for an example, its optional and when you do pay for it, it only costs roughly $200 for a year. at home my car insurance last year was about ?1100!!!!!! some joke. ive heard of some court cases here on the radio and stuff where settlements paid out amounted to about $10,000 dollars for pretty serious incidents which is only about ?5000, if that was at home payments would amounted to ?250,000 plus. it seems this place is alot more sensible where fairness is concerned. theres defidently alot more public events and amenities, such as endurance tests, races, fishing, adventure stuff and things along those lines, especially compared to ireland anyway which has virtually nothing going on for young people, and if there is something its too expensive or whatever the down side is that alot of parts here are just so remote, you dont really get an idea for it till you see it yourself, i guess it just depends on your personal prefrences of what you want. its hard to say which is better, id say if this place wasnt as remote it would defidently win hands down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light Land Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 best soil depends on who you ask mate ha ha!. The soil where i am in the waikato is pretty top notch. Its about an hour and a half north of where Alan is. Mainly a peat/loam type soil, very fertile. But farmers down the south island will tell you theirs is best probably, its ranges so much throughout even within short distance Fair call,well said.I'm going to take Tris on a soil tour if we both have time.
