Q: correct configuration my smtp settings in jhipster project I have a few problems with configuration of my jhipster application. This is part of my configuration file:
mail:
    host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    port: 465
    username: My_smtp_login
    password: my_smtp_password
    protocol: smtp
    tls: true
    auth: true
    from: mymail@yahoo.pl
messages:
    cache-seconds: 1
thymeleaf:
    cache: false

and my logs:
2015-12-22 20:47:09.680 DEBUG 13428 --- [hero-Executor-2] com.sun.mail.smtp                        : useEhlo true, useAuth false

It's not only yahoo problem, i checked with AOL, Gmail and Yandex , but there was the same problem with smtp. Where is the problem with smtp configuration?

I found information, that remove

from: mymail@yahoo.pl
  should help, but it didn't work in my case

A: I had the same error like you. The solution for me was to put the from: mymail@yahoo.pl (which has to be the same like the yahoo mail username) to the section:
jhipster:
    mail:
         from: mymail@yahoo.pl
which also can be found in the application-prod.yml or application-dev.yml files but several lines below the:
spring:
       mail:

section.
So the whole solution for me looks as follows (using your example credentials):
spring:
        ...
          mail:
               host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
               port: 587
               username: mymail@yahoo.pl
               password: my_smtp_password
               protocol: smtp
               tls: true
          properties.mail.smtp:
               auth: true
               starttls.enable: true
               ssl.trust: smtp.mail.yahoo.com

and:
jhipster:
         ...
         mail:
              from: mymail@yahoo.pl

A: Have you checked that you can connect to this SMTP server from outside JHipster, using telnet for instance? Maybe you're blocked by a firewall.
Also you should set spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp for additional properties like below.
spring:
    mail:
        host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
        port: 587
        username: My_smtp_login
        password: my_smtp_password
        protocol: smtp
        tls: true
        properties.mail.smtp:
             auth: true
             starttls.enable: true
             ssl.trust: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
        from: mymail@yahoo.pl

A: Most examples I found use the clasic configurations from: https://jhipster.github.io/tips/011_tip_configuring_email_in_jhipster.html
I had the same error like you trying to connect using Exchange Server.
The fix was add the SMTP properties to spring:mail, in order to get those properties loaded in the Session
So I added the SMTP properties that I needed in the profile application-dev.yml
(See: https://javamail.java.net/nonav/docs/api/com/sun/mail/smtp/package-summary.html)
spring:
    mail:
        host: 10.10.10.10
        port: 25
        username:
        password:
        properties.mail.smtp:
            host: 10.10.10.10
            port: 25
            auth: false
            starttls.enable: false
            connectiontimeout: 180000
            timeout: 180000

jhipster:
    mail:
        from: yourproject@something.com

In order to check the Session, I have added some debug logs in the MailService class.
Class: your.pack.service.MailService.java
@Inject
private MailProperties mailProperties;

@Async
public void sendEmail(String to, String subject, String content, boolean isMultipart, boolean isHtml) {
    log.debug("Send e-mail[multipart '{}' and html '{}'] to '{}' with subject '{}' and content={}",
        isMultipart, isHtml, to, subject, content);

    // Prepare message using a Spring helper
    MimeMessage mimeMessage = javaMailSender.createMimeMessage();
    try {
        MimeMessageHelper message = new MimeMessageHelper(mimeMessage, isMultipart, CharEncoding.UTF_8);
        message.setTo(to);
        message.setFrom(jHipsterProperties.getMail().getFrom());
        message.setSubject(subject);
        message.setText(content, isHtml);

        // --- Debug Code
        log.debug("----- spring: mail: -----");
        log.debug("spring mail: host={}", mailProperties.getHost());
        log.debug("spring mail: port={}", mailProperties.getPort());
        log.debug("spring mail: username={}", mailProperties.getUsername());
        log.debug("spring mail: password={}", mailProperties.getPassword());
        log.debug("spring mail: protocol={}", mailProperties.getProtocol());

        log.debug("----- spring: mail: properties.mail.smtp -----");
        for (Entry<String, String> entry : mailProperties.getProperties().entrySet()) {
            log.debug("properties.mail.smtp: {}={}", entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
        }

        log.debug("----- session object -----");
        for (Entry<Object, Object> entry : message.getMimeMessage().getSession().getProperties().entrySet()) {
            log.debug("session: {}={}", entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
        }
        // --- Debug Code

        javaMailSender.send(mimeMessage);
        log.debug("Sent e-mail to User '{}'", to);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        log.warn("E-mail could not be sent to user '{}', exception is: {}", to, e.getMessage());
    }
}

The result, all properties were loaded into the session

At least for me, it's working!


For US corporate employees traveling to Israel or for Israeli executives traveling to the US, Transmark offers a comprehensive pre-departure "Living in the US/Israel" workshop designed to significantly reduce the extent of culture shock, disorientation and anxiety associated with relocation to a new, foreign and largely unfamiliar environment. Beyond preparatory coaching, Transmark can supply information crucial to the "settling in" process of an executive and his family. Tips, guidance, and assistance provided by Transmark on issues directly related to the naturalization period in Israel or the US, can facilitate the relocation process by freeing the transferee from burdens associated with logistical arrangements and enabling him to begin his business assignment without excess delay.
For family members accompanying employees overseas, Transmark's training can be an especially valuable resource for improving the family's ability to adjust to, and live in the foreign environment.
The "Living in Israel/Living in America" preparatory program can be augmented by an on-site (in Israel or in the US) orientation period beginning upon arrival at the airport and including an initial introduction to the physical and cultural surroundings in which the executive and his family will live and work. Transmark's coaches can shorten the critical tuning period and streamline a family's adjustment by accompanying and facilitating some of the early organizational, bureaucratic and lifestyle tasks associated with arrival in either the US or Israel.

I am from California in the United States. I found Slukat through Facebook and Google. I graduated from college 4 years ago, and am now working. I am doing this volunteer work on my vacation time.
I have never done any type of volunteer work while traveling and thought it would be a good way to experience a different style of traveling from the standard tourist experience. Slukat seemed to be a well run organization with a good mission so I decided to volunteer. I was initially planning to volunteer for 3 weeks, but I have extended my time by 1 week to make 4 weeks total.
The students are very good, they are very eager to learn, and are very enthusiastic. It is very rewarding to see them understand a new concept or word.
I was a little nervous before I started teaching because I have never taught anything in a formal classroom environment. I think it took me about a week to feel comfortable with the process of teaching. The students were very helpful and easy to work with. They made this new experience very positive.

Q: Gcloud, Relase external IP So I'm currently really new to google cloud platform and I have an issue to be solved.
I've already created a compute engine in gcloud. When it was created, it automatically assigned an external IP. I'd prefer the instances to not have any external IP.
I saw that you could put --no-address argument when creating the instances so it wouldn't be assigned an external IP, but how to release the external IP when the instance has already created?

A: > gcloud compute addresses list
NAME       REGION        ADDRESS         STATUS
webserver  europe-west1  130.211.70.XXX  IN_USE

gcloud compute addresses delete 130....

Or use use 'network' tab in the web interface if it's a one-off need.

Sally and Tucker tend to draw a crowd when they come to GMC, which this semester is each Tuesday from noon to 1 p.m. in Withey Hall, just outside the dining hall entrance. Sally is Sally Achey, a retired statistics analyst from Middletown Springs, and Tucker, or "Tuck" for short, is her 10-year-old Australian Shepard.
"Tuck is naturally a very active dog. We've done a lot of agility work, we've done a lot of herding, which is a natural instinct," Sally explains. (During our interview, she takes care to spell out the word F-R-I-S-B-E-E—she hasn't brought one with her and Tuck gets excited when he hears the word).
But Tuck is not an ordinary dog—he's been trained by Sally as a Pet Partners dog. Pet Partners is the largest national nonprofit organization evaluating multiple species for field work. Among other skills, Tucker has learned to greet strangers; work in crowded, often noisy environments; and to accept petting. Tuck and Sally are a team—when Tuck is "working" Sally is there too, not so much to manage the dog's behavior, but because the relationship between pet and owner is an important dynamic when interacting with others.
The pair began training when a West Rutland librarian told Sally about a "read to a dog" therapy program. The dogs serve as relaxed and non-judgmental listeners to children who have difficulty reading out loud.
Since then, Tucker and Sally have made lots of friends.

3 Things Every Investor Should Learn From the Rise and Fall of Tilray
For a time, it seemed that nothing could go wrong for Tilray (NASDAQ: TLRY). The Canadian marijuana stock soared 184% in August. It skyrocketed another 228% between Sept. 1 and Sept. 19. No other stock on the market was as hot as Tilray. And then the sizzle fizzled.
Last week, Tilray began a plunge that's still under way. In a matter of three business days, the company lost half of its market cap. Some investors still probably made a lot of money off of Tilray's run. Others who jumped aboard amid the frenzy likely lost a lot of money. But regardless of whether or not you bought this marijuana stock, there are three things every investor can learn from the rise and fall of Tilray.
1. Always keep the business prospects front and center
Probably the most important lesson of all is to always keep the business prospects front and center. Over the long run, owning a stock is owning part of a business. Tilray's stock definitely had a major disconnect with the company's business prospects.
It's not that Tilray doesn't have great business prospects. The company should be a big winner in Canada's recreational marijuana market, which is scheduled to open on Oct. 17, 2018. Tilray already has supply agreements with several provinces and territories lined up. The company is boosting its production capacity to meet demand in the domestic market and in the rapidly growing international medical marijuana markets.
But if there was any doubt that Tilray's stock gains weren't connected with the reality of its business prospects, a comparison with Canopy Growth should have settled the matter. Both companies have the same opportunities for growth ahead of them. But Canopy has greater production capacity, more money, and a close relationship with a major alcoholic beverage maker that Tilray doesn't currently have. Despite all of this, Tilray's market cap soared past Canopy's. That was a clear sign of a disconnect between Tilray's business prospects and its stock price.
2. Be skeptical about huge moves with no clear underlying catalyst
There were several days over the last few weeks where Tilray's share price jumped with no new developments. When there's no clear underlying catalyst behind a big move, it's good to be skeptical.
Granted, sometimes stocks can quickly move higher as big institutional investors buy large blocks of shares over time. This creates an upward pressure for the stock price. And it's certainly a positive thing for a stock to receive institutional support.
On the other hand, nearly parabolic stock gains like what Tilray experienced can often be the result of a short squeeze. Tilray's short interest has been high. Its stock float is low. Combine those two factors with a little positive news, and you get the kind of scenario we've seen with Tilray's epic rise. Short-sellers began to cover their positions as the stock went up, which helped drive the stock even higher. But when the short covering was over, Tilray started to tank.
3. Closely examine the factors behind major stock moves
Sometimes, the factors behind big stock moves appear to be obvious. For example, it made sense that marijuana stocks, including Tilray, jumped when reports surfaced that Coca-Cola could be in discussions with Aurora Cannabis about a partnership. Tilray's CEO appearing on CNBC talking up the cannabis industry's prospects is also the kind of thing that often gives a stock a boost.
But even when it's pretty clear what the catalysts are, it's always a good idea to closely examine those factors. For example, investors should have questioned whether or not Tilray's huge market cap increase made the company more or less likely to attract a major partner outside of the cannabis industry. There's a real possibility that it could decrease the likelihood of a large equity stake like the one Constellation Brands made in Canopy Growth.
The comments made by Tilray CEO Brendan Kennedy on CNBC provide an even better example of why investors should carefully research underlying catalysts behind big stock moves. Kennedy claimed that there could be several marijuana companies with market caps of $100 billion or more with a global cannabis market of $150 billion. His numbers could be right, but some investors could have failed to understand that it will be a really long time before the global cannabis market gets anywhere close to $150 billion.
In defense of Tilray
It's easy to beat up on the company after the crazy gyrations Tilray has undergone. However, it wasn't Tilray that caused a short squeeze, or its aftermath. The situation with Tilray was instead caused by traders who were betting against the stock and realized they were losing big on those bets.
Will Tilray's share price continue to fall? It wouldn't be surprising if it did. At some point, though, the stock will be more in alignment with the realistic business prospects for the company. When that time comes, whether it's a matter of weeks or months, Tilray will become a stock to consider on the merits of its potential growth -- keeping the three lessons discussed earlier in mind.

A new study has raised questions about the common concept of 'family'.
Through a range of surveys, interviews, consultations and research, a new collaborative study, by the Consultative Group on Ministry among Children and the Methodist Church, has found that church family workers are engaging with a growing range of family types.
The 'We are Family' research was released at the family ministry conference of the same name which took place last week at Liverpool Hope University. Along with the launch of the study, the weekend saw attendees participate in a new Core Skills for Family Ministry training course and partake in discussions, seminars and an interview with Carrie Longton, co-founder of Mumsnet.
In addition to encouraging a greater emphasis on diversity in understanding what is meant by 'family', the study promotes a deeper level of ministry that embraces variety and offers support to both churchgoing families and those outside of the Church.
Gail Adcock, Families Ministries Development Officer in the Methodist Church, said "Our understanding of family needs to go beyond the concept of the nuclear family to encompass a diversity of relationships. Once we recognise this, we can adopt more inclusive language and respond more effectively to minister and support families in the contexts that they are in.
Penny Fuller, moderator of the CGMC, added "Family ministry across the UK is growing, with many new projects starting. It's not just happening on a Sunday, but is taking place in a range of different contexts, engaging with a great diversity of families. In this growing area of ministry, it is essential that the Church provides suitable training and support.

West by Carys Davies
Release Date: April 24 2018
Genre: Historical Fiction, Literary Fiction
Author: Carys Davies
Publisher: Scribner, Simon and Schuster
West by Carys Davies :
When widowed mule breeder Cy Bellman reads in the newspaper that colossal ancient bones have been discovered in the salty Kentucky mud, he sets out from his small Pennsylvania farm to see for himself if the rumors are true: that the giant monsters are still alive and roam the uncharted wilderness beyond the Mississippi River. Promising to write and to return in two years, he leaves behind his only daughter, Bess, to the tender mercies of his taciturn sister and heads west.
With only a barnyard full of miserable animals and her dead mother's gold ring to call her own, Bess, unprotected and approaching womanhood, fills lonely days tracing her father's route on maps at the subscription library and waiting for his letters to arrive. Bellman, meanwhile, wanders farther and farther from home, across harsh and alien landscapes, in reckless pursuit of the unknown.
From Frank O'Connor Award winner Carys Davies, West is a spellbinding and timeless epic-in-miniature, an eerie parable of the American frontier and an electric monument to possibility.
"A multi-faceted gem of a book, West taps the spirit of the great quest novels of Twain, Melville, Cervantes, but with a gentle feminist twist and a fraction of the page count." —Toronto Star
"Moving, atmospheric." — Real Simple
"Short, incredible, violent, uplifting and empowering – how Davies manages to create such an enduring story in 150 pages is a mystery, but she nails it." —Stylist
"A tightly-knit, compulsively readable tale…Davies' slender novel has all the heft of a sprawling western classic." — Booklist, starred review
"Davies' slim, complex, and achingly beautiful first novel is a sculpture of daring shifts and provocative symmetries welded together by lyrical, fast-paced prose…The result is a choral performance, reminiscent of those by Penelope Fitzgerald…Deployed on the stage of the midlapsarian American frontier, Davies' chorus manages to weave threads of myth and hope into the gnarly chords of historical tragedy. A masterful first novel—the sort of book that warms even as it devastates, that forces serious reflection and yet charms." — Kirkus, starred review
"West proves what in-the-know lovers of her short stories have already been trumpeting: Carys Davies is a deft, audacious visionary, a master of the form. In West, she breaks open our fascination with fated journeys and the irrepressible draw of the unknown, imbuing the American landscape with her own rare magic, twisting the heart as few others can, brilliantly navigating the tension between narrative minimalism and imaginative opulence." — Téa Obreht, author of The Tiger's Wife
"To read Carys Davies' West is to encounter a myth, or a potent dream—a narrative at once new and timeless. Exquisite, continent, utterly vivid, this short novel will live on in your imagination long after you read the last page." — Claire Messud, author of The Burning Girl and The Woman Upstairs
"West has all the stark power and immediacy of a folk-tale or a legend. It is also structured with great artistry, a beguiling sense of form and pace, and a depth in the way the characters are created, making clear that Carys Davies is a writer of immense talent." — Colm Tóibín, author of Brooklyn and House of Names
"Menace and mordant wit are the blood that runs through these veins, but there's a pulse of wonder in Carys Davies' West. She sees the world and its inhabitants both as we hope they are and as we fear that they might be. An audacious and enigmatic debut of thrilling dimensions, and a reminder of fiction's possibilities."— Akhil Sharma, author of Family Life and A Life of Adventure and Delight
"A story of determination, betrayal, folly, and reckless hope written in the grand tradition of the pioneers. You enter the familiar American frontier and shortly are convinced, with Davies' hero, that the mammoths of the Pleistocene still shyly roam the Plains. The seams between imagination and history in this extraordinary story are invisible. I believed every word." — Salvatore Scibona, author of The End
"West is a journey and a wonder. A man leaves what he loves and goes west in search of the amazing. A story concerned with value and language, love and absence, life and death. A debut of real distinction." — Bernard MacLaverty, author of Midwinter Break and Cal
"An exquisite debut that's short in length but steeped in the tall tales of American myth." — Lit Hub
"An engrossing work of historical fiction grappling with themes of vulnerability, longing and hope that transcend all contexts…West leaves the reader feeling as vulnerable and full of wonder as the book's main characters." — BookPage
John Cyrus Bellman set out on an exploration, an excursion out westward in search of a big monster, he would set out along Missouri River equipped with trinkets and gifts to offer for services and the eye and hand of a Native Indian he will hire. Two thousand miles with bags and a new distinctive hat, his tall form, red haired, leaving behind his daughter Bess with her aunt.
Bess, his daughter, is coming of age and whist worrying of her fathers perils away has her own at home.
What will he discover?
An excursion that was meant to partake maybe one to two years to the most.
There are some longings for union again of daughter and father whilst he sets out in search of "an animal incognitum."
Tragedy home and away.
The lucid prose moved with potent drive for answers and safety, the tale left out some details for the reader to evoke within their minds, the sense of place, people, and conflict. I did want more length in the tale. Characters, place, and situation, memorable, and poignant.
A read that would immerse the reader in one sitting through to read without let downs, a tale of journey, modest in length and depth, a narrative of growth and exploration, with pitfalls, longings, savings, and vulnerabilities.

INTERVIEW: JOSH BELPERIO IS SCARRED FOR LIFE AT ADELAIDE FRINGE
Endorsed (sort of) by Andrew Bolt, emerging cabaret sensation Josh Belperio is bringing autobiographical Scarred for Life to Adelaide Fringe.
After surviving being thrown over the handlebars of his pushbike, rupturing his spleen and nearly bleeding to death, Josh did the only rational thing an artist would do – he wrote a show about it.
His debut season at Adelaide Cabaret Fringe sold out, so Josh is bringing the show to Queens Theatre at The Lab for two weekends.
Through original songs Josh recounts, with humour, his finer moments in hospital and the tale of a tragedy that changed his life for the better.
"The comedy comes from the tragedy," Josh says. "It's all the hospital shenanigans that happened when we're at a really vulnerable position in our life that's so funny. Like parading around in see-through underwear, the patient in the bed next to me developing a delusion I was trying to kill her. All of that."
Since his Adelaide Cabaret Fringe debut, Josh's career has gone skywards, particularly after the release of his open letter to Malcolm Turnbull about Marriage Equality.
"It's really awesome to know that a very large group of people sent the message of joy and resilience viral during a really, really horrible time in our history," he says. "This is my greatest hope: that people out there who were suffering were helped by that song."
And after giving hope to so many during a very difficult time, Josh is bringing his joy to Adelaide Fringe, which he is thrilled about.
"Oh my gosh, it is just the time when the city gets transformed into this incredible cultural hub," he says. "There are so many shows, it's just exhilarating, this melting pot of all different shows, all different styles of theatre that you can see, it's just incredible.
"And we are performing in a wonderful venue because I told my partner [and producer]: 'Matt, I want to do Fringe but I want the grand piano and I don't want to do a tent, and I want it to be air conditioned,' he laughs. "And Matt said, 'Well, no such venue exists, so I'm going to have to make one.' Now we've got this awesome lineup of 16 shows that are going to be performing to an audience with a grand piano in an air conditioned comfort."
For Josh, working alongside Matt has been beneficial to his work and their relationship because he says they are the perfect team.
"It's great because we have this extra dimension to our relationship now, where we have this creative dimension and that is really, really exhilarating and exciting and wonderful and beautiful," he says. "On the flip side, the fights are spectacular! The marriage equality song ironically almost ended our relationship, not quite, it wasn't that bad."

A journey through the Celtic heartlands in the central Highlands taking in the waterfalls in Birnam forest, Pitlochry, the Queen's View and the splendour of Loch Tay, an area steeped in ancient history. You also visit a whisky distillery for a tour and tasting.
This tour is great for those who enjoy forest walks, waterfalls, dramatic mountain views and learning about the art of making whisky, and you can try it too!
Depart Edinburgh at 09.00 and travel north over the Forth Road Bridge, passing one of Scotland's great engineering wonders - the Forth Rail Bridge. Continuing north into the Kingdom of Fife you pass Loch Leven castle where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned in 1567 and forced to abdicate from the throne.
Further on you will also pass Perth, the medieval capital of Scotland, before crossing the Highland Boundary Fault line, and the point where the scenery changes from the rolling farmland of the Lowlands to the forested hills and mountains of the Scottish Highlands. Surrounded by this beautiful scenery and on the banks of the River Tay is the Cathedral town of Dunkeld, your first stop of the day. Dunkeld was for many centuries the capital of the Christian Celtic Church, and its 13th century Cathedral reflects the once great importance of this quaint Highland village. From Dunkeld it's a short drive to the Hermitage, a fantastic woodland walk leading up to the Black Linn Falls where the River Braan cascades into a narrow gorge. Surrounded by some of Scotland's tallest trees and changing spectacularly in appearance throughout the seasons it's a great place at any time of year. You may even have the chance to see the spectacular sight of Salmon attempting to leap up the falls and on towards their spawning grounds.
Leaving the Hermitage you follow the wide valley of the River Tay towards the Victorian resort town of Pitlochry. You will spend around 1 hour here and you can visit the many great shops and restaurants or maybe even take a walk down towards Loch Faskally.
After lunch you take a scenic drive through the mountains of Highland Perthshire, first crossing over the Pass of Killiecrankie before a short stop at the Queen's View overlooking Loch Tummel. On a clear day the view here is stunning, looking over to the unmistakable peak of Schiehallion and beyond to the mountains of Glencoe. Continuing alongside Loch Tummel you then head over the hills into the ancient lands of Breadalbane, or the 'High Country' surrounding Loch Tay. You will make a stop at the waterside village of Kenmore with a chance to walk along the shores of the loch and enjoy the views to the dramatic bulk of Ben Lawers rising high above the water.
From here you travel the short distance to the town of Aberfeldy and Dewars Whisky distillery, where you can discover the secret of how Scotland's national drink is made. No visit to Scotland is complete without sampling a 'wee dram' and you will get the chance to taste some of the finished product. Known in the Gaelic as Uisge Beatha (or 'water of life') whisky has been produced for centuries in Scotland and the art is now close to perfection. From here the tour returns you to the lowlands and Edinburgh.
Return time - approx. 18.30

August: 2 to 31 - Sundays to Thursdays
Important note about cancellations - due to the very limited availability of Highclere Castle tickets, all bookings for this service are 100% non refundable.
An architectural masterpiece, Highclere Castle is best known for doubling as Downton Abbey in the popular TV series. International Friends invites you to explore the lavishly decorated interior, Egyptian Exhibition, and the 1,000-acre Capability Brown–designed grounds.
This day trip includes:
- Round trip transfers from London in an executive vehicle
- Entry to Highclere Castle and Grounds (Downton Abbey) with guides available in the rooms
- Entry to the Egyptian Exhibition
- Services of an experienced driver (please note that this service is not guided)
We depart London and drive away from the city towards the South West of England, a journey that takes around 90 minutes. On arrival at Highclere Castle there will be time to enjoy the beautiful gardens; The Monks Garden, White Border, Secret Garden and Wood of Goodwill before we enter the Castle. There will be time for a visit to the tearooms where you can enjoy a light lunch, snack or afternoon tea made in the Castle kitchen. We plan to spend at least 3 hours at the Castle.
Highclere Castle has been the seat of the Carnarvon family since 1679. Major rebuilding work was carried out in the 18th and 19th centuries, and in 1838, the 3rd Earl of Carnarvon brought in Sir Charles Barry to transform his home into a truly stunning mansion. During the First World War the Castle was transformed into a hospital, returning to a private home in 1922. To this day the current (8th) Earl and Countess of Carnarvon live partly in the Castle and partly nearby, but remain closely involved in the Castle's day to day life.
On entry to Highclere Castle, visitors follow a route through the Castle, with guides in each State room. The State rooms include the Saloon, Library, Dining room, Music room, Drawing room and Smoking room. Visitors can then go up the Red Stairs to view some of the Bedrooms and the Gallery, before walking down the Oak staircase back to the Saloon in the heart of the house. Many of the rooms from the Downton Abbey series can be seen on the tour, including the Parlour where the Crawleys take tea, the bedrooms and of course the Dining room (the scene of many family arguments!).

Boyne Valley, Celtic Ireland & Slane Castle Whiskey
Small Coach Day Tour
2019 Dates Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, April to October
Depart: 08.45 - Opposite the Kilkenny Shop, Nassau St, Dublin
Return: 18.00 - Opposite the Kilkenny Shop, Nassau St, Dublin
You're taught to believe history is made of separate eras. The Prehistoric Period, the Pagans, the Bronze Ages, and so forth.
But here's the thing. In reality, cultures and civilisations slowly evolve, clash, and merge. And nowhere is this more apparent than in central Ireland.
On this tour, you see curious Celtic art intertwined with Christian symbolism. You admire one of the grandest Norman castles and meander over the mythological landscapes of Pagan kings. And you explore the splendour of an 18th-century castle before tasting locally distilled Irish whiskey.
Join this tour and discover the best way to travel through the cultural history of Ireland in a day.
Places you explore
Four Knocks - Walk into a 5,000-year-old tomb and find an ancient Celtic 'smiley face' carving.
Monasterboice High Crosses - Standing five metres tall, this cross is a masterpiece of Medieval European stonework.
Slane Castle - Where 300 years of history meets Irish whiskey and spectacular rock concerts.
Bective Abbey - The simple design of this well-preserved abbey reflects the pious builders' rejection of extravagant embellishments.
Trim Castle - It's easy to wander astray in Europe's largest Norman castle.
You travel from Dublin deep into the gorgeous, green landscape of County Meath. This area is soaked in ancient history, and they even say the mythical High Kings of Ireland once lived here.
Your first stop is the Four Knocks Megalithic Passage Tomb. More than 5,000 years ago Neolithic farmers constructed this site. That's older than the pyramids. So, wander in and come face to face with some of the oldest human history you can encounter.
After this, it's time to see one of Ireland's finest relics at Monasterboice, the Celtic High Cross of Muiredach. This huge and famous masterpiece depicts Biblical tales and combines Celtic art with Christian symbolism. Study the carvings and see if you can figure out the meaning.
You then continue inland following the River Boyne Valley. Our next stop is elegant Slane Castle and Distillery. Relax over lunch in Browne's Bar and Snug then join the distillery tour where you can hear about the unique three cask process that makes Slane Irish Whiskey such a unique blend in an equally unique setting. Taste for yourself the flavours of the Boyne Valley before we continue through the next part of the story of Ireland's Ancient East.
You then continue to the 12th-century Bective Abbey. You have time here to take a few photos and enjoy the simple architecture of this ancient monument.
Now it's time to compare the peaceful and subtle religious architecture with the mighty, fortified Trim Castle. You can let your imagination run wild at this hugely impressive Norman castle. There are walls to climb, a large castle keep to explore, and plenty of reconstructions and curiosities to discover.
And then you head back home to Dublin. You've ventured through 5,000 years of history, ancient Celtics myths, legends, castles and whiskey in a day. After all that time travelling, it may be time to enjoy a pint of the black stuff.

Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands Day Tour
~ Rannoch Moor
~ Glencoe
~ Great Glen
~ Fort Augustus
~ Boat Cruise on Loch…
~ Boat Cruise on Loch Ness (optional)
~ Loch Lomond
~ Highland Perthshire
Our "Scotland in a Day" tour covering the magnificent beauty of Rannoch moor and dramatic Glencoe. Travel the Great Glen to Fort Augustus for free time at Loch Ness before returning via Highland Perthshire.
We recommend this tour for those who are short of time and want to get a great sample of the Highlands. Steep yourself in the history of dramatic Glencoe and the chance to see Nessie!
Departing: Daily (All year)
Depart Glasgow at 08.00 and travel north towards the Highlands along the "bonnie, bonnie" banks of Loch Lomond. This is Scotland's largest loch and it takes its name from the mountain Ben Lomond on the eastern shore.
Crossing the ancient natural fault line that runs across Scotland you travel into the majestic Highlands where the scenery changes quickly and dramatically - the flat fertile plains of the Lowlands give way to shimmering lochs, rugged mountain tops and forest-filled glens. It's easy to forget that this was once thought of as a dangerous frontier fought over by the fiercely territorial Highland clans such as the MacGregors, made famous by the Highland folk hero, Rob Roy MacGregor.
Travelling north through Breadalbane (meaning the 'High Country of Scotland'), you climb towards the wild desolation of Rannoch Moor. At an altitude of over 1000ft, covered by heather and peat-bogs and dotted with dozens of lochs, it's a unique landscape. This contrasts with the spectacular mountain scenery as you pass the majestic peak of Buachaille Etive Mor (meaning 'the great shepherd of Etive') and down into Scotland's most famous valley, Glencoe.
Stunningly beautiful, with its dramatic cliff faces and steep slopes, Glencoe is infamous as the site of the Glencoe massacre in 1692. Following orders from King William, Scottish soldiers, under the leadership of Captain Robert Campbell, slaughtered 38 men, women and children of the Macdonald clan. This was especially shocking as the soldiers had been living with the people of Glencoe for 2 weeks and killed them in their own homes. Noone was ever punished for this crime, as the King himself had signed the order, but because it was murder under trust, the Highlands would never be the same again.
Beyond Glencoe you will enter the Great Glen, a deep glacial valley which follows a geological fault line. Passing through the town of Fort William you drive under Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis before arriving at Fort Augustus on the southern shore of Loch Ness.
At 23 miles long and over 700ft deep it's the largest loch by volume in Scotland and contains more water than every lake in England and Wales combined! Of course, the loch is best known for the legendary sightings of the Loch Ness Monster ("Nessie"). Fort Augustus is a pretty little town in its own right, the Caledonian Canal which links the lochs of the Great Glen dominates the town and makes a great place to relax and watch the boats sail by. You will stop here for lunch before travelling north the full length of the loch with the opportunity to take a 5 Star Jacobite boat cruise on the loch and view the ancient stronghold of Urquhart Castle.
Once one of Scotland's largest castles, Urquhart's remains include a tower house that commands splendid views of the famous loch and Great Glen. Urquhart witnessed considerable conflict throughout its 500 years as a medieval fortress and its history from the 13th to 17th centuries was particularly bloody. Following Edward I's invasion, it fell into English hands and was then reclaimed and lost again. In the 14th century, it figured prominently in the Scots' struggle for independence and came under the control of Robert the Bruce after he became King of Scots.
From Loch Ness you continue north through Inverness before travelling south through the mountains of the Cairngorms National Park. Your route takes you over the Drumochter Pass (1500ft above sea level) and past 13th century Blair Castle, ancestral home of the Duke of Atholl. We continue south via the forests of Highland Perthshire with a short refreshment stop on route, returning to Glasgow at approximately 19.45
Outside Parish Hall, 266 George Street (next to the City Chambers, between North Frederick Street and John Street).
