Ok guys, last round-up now for those going on this run.

Was gonna be co-piloting Ollie (Dastig) but got my car back last night, so gonna blow some cobwebs off it on Saturday..my mate even t-cut the bodywork so it's back to red again (well almost all of it).

Penelope pitstop, has a rendezvous been organised for you or are you coming to the red cow??

Looking forward to meeting new and old faces!!!

Just in the door after a great days driving. Unfortunately we lost contact with Scoobydoo....where are you?? somewhere around Greystones/Wicklow...so sorry about that Scoobydoo, we should have gotten your number before starting out :oops: . Anyhow, it was great to meet ya!! Hope you got home alright.
I didn't have any camera with me so I've no pics to show, I'm sure they'll materialise at some point soon. Kudos to Ash who decided at 10:45 to come for the run, despite the fact that he was still in bed in Dungarvan Co. Waterford and we were due to start from Red Cow at 12...go figure!!! He eventually caught up with us in the Bray/Greystones area...all that while staying within the speed limits..well done Ash
Lunch in Wicklow Golf Club was divine with a beautiful view of the Irish Sea, this being recommended by Penelopepitstop..great choice!
From there we headed cross country to Rathdrum, onto Laragh , into Glendalough , across the Wicklow Gap and into Hollywood where we stopped again for refreshments.
The party split thereafter with the Dublin gang heading East and remainder going West.
Well done everyone, hope you all managed to get home safely.

Roll call:
Scoobydoo
Ivan
Ger
Ollie (Dastig)
SADriver (Derrick)
Penelopepitstop (Susan..have I got that right??)
Fabfiveferg + co-pilot
Paschal
Tom
Ash
Leamyj (Me)

Feck, Was there one or two more?? can't recall....someone please adjust if I've omitted anyone.

Special thanks to Ger who alerted me to a little old lady on a pedestrian crossing whom I didn't see. What planning authority allows a tennis club with young wans in tennis whites so close to a main road anyway????? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Great Day ! Thanks Ivan for organising it :lol: Well at least you tried. I am still thinking of the those steaks they looked gorgeous and I haven't eaten since so it is torture! Hope that won't be the last of Scoobydoo.......... :oops:

What a great days driving with a great group of MX5 enthusiast's. It was good to meet up with everybody and to put faces to the names. Hope you got back home Scooby and that you are not put off by your first experience.

Looking forward to the next outing already!

Scoobydoo's been in touch and he got home safely!! He wasn't too familiar wih the roads we were on , hence the "losing" but he's happy to come along another day..that's the spirit!!
Again, great to meet the new and old faces again
