This is a partly a memoir and a partly a musing. Years ago I encountered Dunboy Castle on the Beara Peninsula in Ireland, before it was rebuilt as a hotel. It was  just a ruin surrounded by cows on a meadow.

There was a bee, that had specialised on butter instead of honey, hence butter bee. She loved butter and sometimes got quite drunk on it, if she wasn't careful.
