Thank you to Monaghan Tourism for inviting me to showcase my work at yesterday's event at Monaghan Peace Campus with delegates from the Irish Tour Operators Association. What an opportunity to share with our guests just some of what Monaghan has to offer.
It was a very enjoyable and productive day.

January is always a very busy month. It starts at break-neck speed, with preparations for Showcase Ireland, the annual trade-only fair in the RDS, Dublin: January 18-20. Preparations are more or less complete, and I can't wait to unveil a whole new range I've been working on...want a sneak peak? All will be revealed in the next few days! ;-) You'll find me just inside the door of the Main Hall, at Stand C1.
