We stopped by D & M for an early morning light bite. The restaurant was out of scones and I was…read moredisappointed that the toast was just plain prepackaged slices of bread. Of course that is solely on me and my delusions that all of Ireland serves delicious fresh baked hearty loaves of bread. The strawberry jam and orange marmalade was delicious. I loved my latte and my son-in-law really enjoyed his oats and honey. However his mother intensely disliked her slice of apple pie. In fairness our pies appeared to be much sweeter with a flakier crust. The service was outstanding in both the cafe and the store. The store had a section with Halloween merchandise and another extremely large section for Christmas merchandise. I poked around the Christmas section and found the perfect Santa for my collection. This Santa will be somewhere around number 630 and was chosen because I wanted another Santa that uses incense to smoke a pipe. Customer service was absolutely perfect in the store and I enjoyed shopping here very much.

But you don't go there for the laughs, although laughter is a tonic. Advice is freely given here and they are usually spot-on. Just recently I bought some plants there for a pebbled area and, well advised as usual, came away with some gorgeous colour, hopefully for years to come. It is close to me and I can always pop over for a single plant or container or a ball of garden twine. Maybe I am going just for that laugh! The well stocked centre is run by the COPE Foundation which provides a comprehensive range of services for 1600 children and adults with an intellectual disability.
