Strange how things come back to haunt me.
Clives Nunn’s recent blogs have been about a group of artists who arrived out of the blue last week, to paint their beautiful cottage home in Ballyduff.
One of these, Jack O Hare, was our next door neighbour in Kilmacleague.
We lived for ten years or so in a bungalow in Kilmacleague, by the estuary of the back strand between Tramore and Dunmore East.
Our next door neighbour was Jack O Hare, one time disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright and then head of the department of Building Studies in WIT.
His house, self designed, was a most unusual shape and, to our shame it was always called the train crash by the Dwyers.
Now I am not so sure.
I went rooting in the internet for a picture and found this in the archives of the Dyehouse Lane Gallery where he had had an exhibition.
He is a particularly fine watercolour artist, as the above picture of the house shows.
I have to agree with Clive and recognise that maybe the house should also be looked at again.
