The visitors to Rossport were taken on small group tours by local opponents of the Shell-Statoil pipeline, and shown the proposed pipeline route.

On Sunday a parley took place on what to do next, this involved people from Tyrone, Fermanagh, Mayo, Kildare, Armagh, London, Galway, Cork, Clare, Westmeath, Tipperary, Dublin, Wicklow, and other places too numerous to mention.

Micheal O'Seighin, retired school teacher, noted local historian, sean-nos singer, campaigner against the Shell-Statoil assault on Erris, gives talk even longer than his CV.

Micheal's talk was on the history of the area from the ice age to the present.
