World Champion bodyboarder Amaury Lavernhe just released a crazy YouTube clip from his solo mission to Ireland. He came a stayed with me and the next morning Moz got to surf Mullaghmore for the first time. He described the wave as another level.

That morning when we paddled out, a wave came in and I told Moz to go, go, go. He caught the wave and paddled back out to me and told me, 'That was the fastest I have ever gone on a bodyboard'!

Check out the clip he made of his trip by searching

Normally, I would simply add the link to this Facebook post as usual. Like I have done for the last ten years. However, unexpectedly, Facebook has started trying to charge me, via a Meta One account, for adding links to posts.

This is an annoying development, as I mainly use my page to share relevant content with people interested in the surf school. But poor old Mark Zuckerberg must be hard up for cash these days, and has figured out a way to fix. Stay tuned and lets see how things develop.

Long story short, take it from me that Moz was killing it at Mullaghmore last year.

Let me introduce myself.

Delighted to chat to Carl and Aisling this morning on 2FM all about my new book, Waking Maeve. A literary excavation of Sligo’s landscape, myth and history. The Breakfast Show was broadcasting live from Queen Maeve Square, beside the Garavogue or An Gharbóg, the rough gritty one, a personification of the Cailleach, associate with so many megalithic sites around Sligo.

Queen Maeve Square in the centre of town is a place for festivals and concerts to honour the spirits of Queen Maeve and the Garavogue. 2FM along with Failte Ireland were in town this morning to highlight what a great place Sligo is for a short break.
