Explorer Tom Water pump in Borim is one of three buddies on the road to Swanlinbar, and they all gossip constantly. I heard smugglers used it to hide brandy, which is ridiculous given how small it is. Bring your thirstiest face to say hi!

Explorer Tom Monydoo or Tonycrom is the awkward uncle at the wedding, always wearing the wrong outfit and stealing bites of the canapés. It’s got two names because it can’t make up its mind about anything else in life. Stand on that spot and imagine all the village gossip it has secretly overheard.

Explorer Tom Tullydermot Falls in County Cavan is being picked on by the wind because it won't stop splashing everywhere. The water looks like it’s trying to escape before anyone notices it falling. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.

Explorer Tom Commas Bridge is named after punctuation marks, which means it's probably arguing with the river about grammar. It's built strong enough to handle your bad driving, though. Sit on a bench and think about commas!

Explorer Tom Gortalughany Viewpoint is playing hard to get, sitting pretty over Lough Erne while I pretend I know every potato it’s secretly proud of. It’s basically a hill that thinks it’s a fancy restaurant for clouds. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.

Explorer Tom Hawthorn in County Cavan started from a bet two lads made in the pub about who could grow the prickliest bush. One of them lost his thumb, probably. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits, especially one involving thorns and regret.

Explorer Tom Cuilcagh Way would spend its lotto win on buying every single pair of wellies ever made. It winds up the mountain like a snake that wants a hug from you. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call.

Explorer Tom This other Cuilcagh has an unlikely celebrity friend who is just a very confused cloud that gets stuck on top every Friday. It pretends to be famous because of this association. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't.

Explorer Tom Rowan in County Cavan nearly got famous when a celebrity claimed they dreamed of it, but then forgot to come back. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me if it involves aliens or just bad weather.

Explorer Tom Benaughlin struck a bargain with the devil for good limestone cliffs, and the fine print says it can't move if you stare at it too hard. It’s basically a very expensive rock garden that nobody visits. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.

Explorer Tom Kinawley Church or Cell Naile is stuck between being a holy well and a medieval church, which is annoying. It’d rate the reality show experience two stars out of five. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.
