This post was going to be titled, “Have you seen this man?”, referring to inter-county man of mystery, Alan Craughwell.

Last seen chasing a turkey in Myrtleville in December, he disappeared from the sea since then. Some said he had emigrated, or moved back to the town named after him in Galway. Others suspected hibernation – he’d be out when he got hungry, or found flashier togs.

Whatever the reason, today was the day. Coaxed from his den by Riana Parsons, his only comment was, “Yep, it’s cold outside”.

Welcome back, big man.

Riana Parsons & Alan Craughwell – he’s back!
