Well I come from a small village in the east of Ireland called Dunshaughlin, this is the english name given to the village, in my own language it is called Domhnach Seachnaill (pronounced Dow-knock Shock-nill...Kinda!!)
It was home to the nephew of St Patrick (Seachnaill)...and I'm sure most of you guys know St Patrick being mainly from Europe and America on this site!!
My village is located very near to the most historical site in Ireland and from which the whole island of ireland (before the english invaded!! :P :P) was ruled by the "high king". The region is called the Boyne Valley and consists of the Neolithic tombs and the famous "Hill of Tara" which are all at least 4,008 years old!!
