GUEST,tom | County Mayo - What to see (61* d) | RE: County Mayo - What to see | 09 Sep 05 |
If you're around that part of Mayo and want the best music and craic go to the Benbui peninsula and head for Rossport . There's a camp been set up there by supporters of five Rossport men who are currently in prison for opposing a high-pressure gas pipeline that Shell International are trying to put through their land.The Rossport 5 want gas from the newly discovered off-shore Corrib Gas fields to be refined at sea and are defying a court injunction that gave judgement in favour of Shell .Plenty of songs have been written about the jailings including one called The Benbui Bucks.
