Heres hoping

[Francie, 2,306]

Iv hunted this certain spot in donegal for over twenty years,about thirteen mile from my house,cracking spot always was my favourite spot,big fields an lots of gear to go at.

An right in the middle of it there is a stone house with a tree boundry bout 1 football pitch in size with a cracking we river running through it.

The old man an woman passed away years ago an its all overgrown.

Durning covid i did a bit of digging trying to find the owner with no luck,thinking to myself i would love to buy it.

Me an my son an his three friends went out a dander on saturday an there was a dead broc on the road beside the stone house so they wanted to get out an look at it as they havent seen a broc before.

While we stood there a jeep came up past with a wee oldman waving out the window,i give him a wave back an thought nothing of it.

The young lads wanted to head back as the final was on,so we turned to go back an as i drive toward the stone house the weeman that waved was parked outside it.

So i says f**k must be the owner,so i jump out an start chatting,turns out he was the owner an we chatted on the wee stone bridge outside the house for over an hour,the lads werent happy lol

I just let him talk an he told me lots about the lurchers he used to keep in there an shooting,pheasants farming etc was a great chat.,then i said to him before i left james would you sell this bit of land an he said yes he probably will an told me hes gona tell his wife we met an that im looking to buy an said he only lives 7 miles from there an that he will be up here every night now between 6 an 7 to call out next week some night, as someone broke into it few weeks back an hes keeping an eye from now on.

To say im excited an nervous is an understatment,iv always said over the years id love to live there to the mates an all of a sudden i met the owner lol

Too right lads just need to do a bit of homework on the ins an outs of buying land an what the process is,or anything to watch out for so if anyone could help on here that would be great,im googling at the minute but be handy if anyone who bought land recently in Ireland could help.

Im not going to see a solicitor yet until i see if hes selling for definate,i hope so.

Len im not sure,its a run off from the top of a big hill,alot of wee runs run into it an it flows down through all the fields into a big lake,but i think he said there was perch or something in the lake,il ask him again when i see him
