It's a longstanding, delayed promise to my daughter, who is a museum curator.
By the way, for those not familiar, in the Mayo accent, the town is pronounced "Castle-bear", with a slight roll of the r. And Ballina is pronounced "bal-in-AH", with the "bal" rhyming with "gal".
No one will correct you for pronouncing Castlebar like it's spelled; some of them do too. They will correct you if you say "Bun-LEEN-uh".
