Well, at least you have got the ball rolling. Congratulations on getting the peacock - hope it goes down well at home!

We are moving initially to Roscommon until we travel round a bit and find some land to buy. We then plan to build either a timber frame of log home. Its a real adventure as we have never been to Roscommon before. A rental property came up last month and I fell in love with it

So V busy and stressed at the moment.... I know it will be worth it though.

Peacock sounds fun!!!
We are still after land bidding still open on 20 acres - up to 100k excellent value as in middle forest area! Have you tried the Earthcare website for timber / logcabins. Too thick to provide a link but any search should find it something like
www.earthcare.ie.

I wouldn't have thought you would have any problems taking them if you just have a few as pets.

Thanks Judith, you were right

Official reply is that they can be classed as pets. I only need a letter from the vet saying they are healthy and have to send an intention of import form to Ireland. No fees to pay

Peacock is settling in now. Roosts and sleeps at the top of the tallest tree in the garden!
Thanks for the link. I have been looking at a variety of suppliers in Ireland. Would love to go for the log house but need to research it more. Hopefully when we move I will have more time to do so (our main reason for the move) Good luck with your bidding, the land sounds wonderful, exactly what we are looking for, though not quite as much of it

Regards price, well a 1/5th of an acre plot sold in our village recently for �200,000, says it all doesn't it????
Thanks again for everyone's input. I only just discovered the site and have spent toooooo much time browsing (instead of packing) already. Will definitely use it once we have moved.
PS: can I ask where abouts in Galway you are. We will not be settling long term in Roscommon as the hospital there does not have a paediatric ward. We have to live a maximum of 15 mins from a hospital and our options are Galway hospital, Ballinasloe and Castlebar.
