So we're just looking out of the harbour here now, Sean, and this would have been full of boats.

Sean Doran finds it particularly frustrating to see fish caught in Irish waters being shipped overseas.

It is such a feature of fishing in Hoth now that he has renamed part of the harbour the Belgian Pier.

Only part of the problem is quota, though.

In Galway Market, at Stefan Griesbach's fishmonger stall, regular customer Liam Caffrey explains that he finds his fish and chips supper just a bit too pricey.

But he's not going to be convinced to eat anything other than cod, which is under huge stock pressure.

Liam is the sort of customer that Stefan Griesbach works hard to wean off cod as he believes Irish fish buyers need to be more adventurous if he is to stay in business.

More ancient music of the area was celebrated as a part of the Geopark Festival last weekend.

Natalie Serena of Eirú Harps, based in Uachtarárd, is an expert in the historical harps and gave a fascinating talk about the instrument's connections to the nearby O'Flaherty stronghold of Achanur Castle.

Earlier that day, people walked the banks of the Owen Riff as it flows into Corriban and heard from Geopark geologist, Benjamin Lebedo, who we met earlier, local archaeologist, Bill Daly, and local ecologist, Greg Ford.

Lorna Siggins joined them.
