They came up with that term "ugly American" for a reason, I guess.

No offense meant, I was looking for a sort-of quainter term than "town" that might, you know, be more in sync with the beautiful nature and soul of Ireland and its people.

Did I dig myself out?

With some aplomb Dick, but there's no need really.

I'm not a jockey or anything, don't have emotional ties with the place. Things are on a non-Texan scale here. We have "cities" like Kilkenny [from a Middle Ages Charter] that would barely qualify as a town. By the same token we have lots of "towns" with village character, just as you say.
