Olly et all,

Thanks for a great day - lovely roads especially going down from the Slieve Blooms, great roads around Dromineer - went home via Portumna, Birr, Tullamore and god knows where else - thanks to Franks Sat Nav - Great Day - great lunch - expensive coffee in Dromineer with a grumpy barmaid - roll on Scotland / Wales and the South of France - who was it that said we could all bail into his sisters house in the south of France ?

Thanks a mil' Ollie, what a fantastic run. Great to meet up with everyone and get the few pints of porter in on Sat night !! Hooray for greasy fry up and gallons of Lucozade Sunday morning !! It was class looking at so many 5's in convoy. Cheers everybody, Padraig
