kiss the blarney stone stag activity

description: A strong house of Munster, Blarney Castle lying 5 miles northwest of Cork City, supports the legendary Blarney Stone. Whilst on your visit to the luscious county of Cork you should consider the veritable benefits of a pilgrimage to the stone. The Blarney stone is believed to have relieved the tongue tied, straightened up spluttering fools and generally afforded those who planted a kiss on it the gift of eloquence. Perhaps then gents, in advance of any wedding speeches or stag weekend excuses, a visitation to the Blarney stone should be considered. “Blarney” is a word meaning “pleasant talk” as decreed by that regal fan of slang, Elizabeth I, essentially it means “talk which serves to mislead or deceive without causing offence”. Further historical significance is hinted by the Good Book, which suggests that the stone was taken to Ireland by the Prophet Jeremiah, though many think it is more likely to have found its way to its Cork resting place via the crusades. a poem accompanies the legend: "There is a stone that whoever kisses, Oh! he never misses to grow eloquent 'Tis he may clamber to a lady's chamber, Or become a member of parliament." Francis Sylvester Mahony: OK perhaps it’s not something rap genius Eminem might have penned, but who are we to comment on history and legend. Enjoy the stone, make it a part of the weekend – perhaps a quick visit before returning home … you never know! availability: 7 days a week throughout the year.
