NUMBER 439

BENCHMARKS continued
 
In early Summer in a manoeuvre that combined pleasure with business, M.C. and Benchmarker struck out north-westward to the town that is renowned for being 'only an hour from Dublin', the palindromic metropolis of Navan. With business speedily and efficiently concluded the decks were cleared for the hunt. The result? Eleven bagged, plus two more in the sister town of Dunshaughlin.
Cradling the gentle rain, this first one from Navan is on Pollboy Bridge.
