The Fair of Muff has been around for over 4 centuries, where the world and his wife come to look at the horses, meet a few old friends, chew the cudd and share the craic, maybe share a bottle or two of the black stuff.It's a day of great variety where old traditions run riot. One big fan is writer Shane Connaughton, who seems to have penned the perfect poem for the perfect occasion. It runs, like a river, through this walk through the fair. Muff is held at the foot of Loughinleagh, between Kingscourt and Bailieboro in South East Cavan, since the early 1600s. Donagh Mckeown is your guide through one fair day in 2007
