"I'd forgotten about the tame fox my cousins kept until I saw the cocktail - named The Fox and featuring Valentia Island vermouth, tonic and orange - listed on the menu at An Síbín, Katherine Murphy's restaurant and wine bar in Lauragh, the sunlight-dappled backdrop to the summer holidays of my childhood."
"The small towns and villages of the Beara peninsula - we'd rent houses in Kenmare, Ardgroom and Eyeries, Castletownbere and Allihies - were the places this temporary blow-in from England yearned for all year long."
