An Ariel on Bere Island

Post by Steven.Carter »

Hi Everyone

Thanks very much for getting this forum off the ground, here's a pic of my VH over on Bere Island in the south west of Ireland. My Mums from there and the ferries to the island are only very small so traveling by bike makes sense.

Well John, every Ariel should have an arial! I have a DAB radio in the box that hooks up to my helmet. Planet Rock whiles away the hours and cures most rattles!

Hi Steve, nice photo...as I would like to contribute to this neat new forum but haven't got a query or comment at the moment, can you tell me please, the correct pronounciation of the word "Bere"
The possibilities that spring to mind are...beer, beeree, berry and bare, are any of these close?
Thanks for " baring" with me, and feel free to get your own back if ever one of us "Shakey Islanders" use Maori place names...cheers

Good question , Barry, it is sometimes spelt on some maps Bear Island, and it is pronounced like the animal of the same name.
