I wish to comment on Dan Buckley’s article on the Irish Examiner today, in relation to Kathleen Peddicord’s writing on a Washington-based magazine stating that Youghal ranks number three in the five chosen retirement destinations for American people.

Forget about Hawaii or Florida, the buzzword among American retirees is Ireland, either Youghal, Co Cork, or Co Clare — either of which when it comes to affordable homes is hotter than anywhere Stateside.
