Anyone mind if John junior tags along?? A lot of you would have met him in Lough Key and at the Terenure show last year. He's nursing a broken arm right now, so I'm doing the "Daddy" thing tomorrow and giving him a day out if that's ok with the group.

Paschal, I'd say if you're in the Newbridge area between 10 and 10:30, that should have us up to Ivan's between 11 and 11:30, in time for elevenses or thereabouts :lol:

You can get me on 087/2656053

The cam cover should be fine with a hand tightening, but no harm in being double sure I suppose.

No problems at all Bren. You're helping to clear my kitchen of car parts
