    Francis I'm realizing you're one hell of a businessman. All those sticks in the vertical racks are quite a sight.

    You are a true artist; your sticks are fantastic and you deserve some recognition for keeping such a tradition alive! Wish you good luck with your shop!

      @@FrancisMcCaffrey5 Glad to hear that; I checked out Killorglin on Google maps... Lovely little town; your shop is in the very picture of an Irish street. I visited Ireland way back in 1996 but I went north from Shannon; If I get back there I'll go south and make an appointment! Slainte!

    Great shop. On Lower Bridge Street, I believe. Super nice sticks that are full of life and are praised by all who see them.

    Surely the best solution is to turn part of your shop into a workshop and you can stay open longer. Looks great👍

    I just looked at your location on Google Earth. It's a beautifull town but so far from Dublin. I think we're closer to Liverpool than Killorglan ! Lovely shop btw !

      I believe the Blackthorn grows throughout the British Isles so no doubt popular in Scotland too.

      I wish ! All one me at the moment . I was planning my daughter would man the shop this summer and my son still too young to help. I literally do everything by myself at the moment hope someday it can become more than a one man business
