Ploughin' for glory
It's the one all the culchees have been waiting for, the National Ploughing Championships have officially gotten under way in Mogeely, County Cork.
The Irish President, Mary McAleese, officially opened the festival on Tuesday morning.
A total of 150,000 people are forecast to attend the three-day event at the 400-acre site.
I have to ask - why would you want to attend the National Ploughing Championships? Why? Why?!
It's ploughing for crying out loud!
Still, I suppose boggers will be boggers...
