I'm fascinated by the paradox that is Irish speed limits. Motorways top out at a sedate 120k/h, great for someone like me who really likes to mosey. But then many a twisty lane is posted at a harrowing 80k/h. What gives?
There’s a hilarious description of life in the Irish slow lane in Niall Williams book “history of rain” about the cows in the lane and the speed (or lack of) they dictate to anyone in a rush. It’s a real gem. Welcome to Ireland and may your settling in be warm and with many glimmers to reassure and confirm this new path in life.
