Welcome Viv; Be sure to check out the "IAP Library" found under the "Resources" menu item. It contains a wealth of information.
I looked up where Sligo is. Interesting area. There is a map of members under the "Members" menu. It looks like there is another member to the south of you, one in Dublin, and a few to the north-east. Listing in the members map isn't required so there may be others. Check out the link in my signature if you want to be included in the map.
Off to church now.
