I was in Dublin this morning and came across a bus tour starting just outside the Gresham Hotel in O`Connell St. which was advertised as going to Ballykissangel.I know the series on TV has finished but it looks like the little town of Avoca in Co. Wicklow will prosper for a while longer as Ballykissangel.

My mom is from Avoca and I have been there several times before the series and after, and I must admit like any sleepy town that is put on television, movies, etc. it never really is the same afterwards. My family (quite a large one - Catholic you know?)remains there and they all get married in the church you see. My mother worked in the woolen mill years ago. Fitzgeralds was formerly Kelly's Fountain and has now lost its charm. Please save the town from being taken over by tourists! The large tours and buses are so sad to see.
