I'm Aisling, live in Galway with husband and kids. I love to travel, read when I get a chance, go to cinema, listen to music and love to walk. Plenty of beautiful walks around Galway

The upcoming release will not have the public web view enabled yet, but it will have a tool to opt out of it.

Morning - €16,500 and almost half way there.

Don't like this post. Please. Don't do that.

Share it instead. People will see it. Some of those may donate to us. It is worth SO much.

One of them might be rich and philanthropically minded 😉

Thanks.
