    Ah...my guess was in the ball park, I figured it had to be close to Cong. Never had enough Punts in my pocket for Ashford Castle but have perused the website a number of times.

    Cool!

    Here in the USA we have a thing called "the four corners" where four of our huge square Western states meet, and you can stand in four states at the same time (well maybe you have to get down on all four to do it right). It's fun to visit there.

    and here's how it's done!



    Right under her is this metal disc



    (BTW from the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about somebody who does both the Utilikilt thing and the strictly traditional Highland Dress thing.)
