Some impressions of a recent wedding.
In keeping with the pattern of weddings at the Castle, the sun was shining on the day of the ceremony 😎

Update on my fundraiser:

As you know, I don't charge visitors for an historic tour of the castle or for photo sessions on the grounds, but I offer the opportunity to donate towards Sheila's Cancer Campaign instead.
Thanks to your steadfast support, a couple of tours and a generous donation from a recent proposal - successful, obviously 😁 - I will be able to issue a cheque each to the Irish Cancer Society and the Milford Hospice.

Sheila's Garden today

25/03/2026

It seems nature was holding back for a sunny day or two to literally explode with colours, and today, after two days of cherry blossom, the petals already begin to rain from the trees. Everything's in a mad rush for some reason...

2nd day the sun pelting from a blue sky, cherry blossom exploding within a day, bees, bumble bees and butterflies being busy - is it too early to call it, or am I jinxing it: Spring is finally here!

The Castle has been stormed a many times before in the history - never with the help of an army of Leyland tractors thoug😁
..I love the smell of diesel in the morning...

The planets and stars - and the moon - aligning over Blackwater Castle

Despite the grey overcast 'wintery' morning, early spring blossom speckles the scenery with much longed for colour.
