Yes, it is a two day event but I'm going down with Joe who has to return the same day. So he and I will only be there for the Saturday. :cry:  

Do try and "escape" for a while if you can :D it'd be nice to put a face to the author.

Looking forward to this one. It's been a long time since I've been down. Missed the last few years.
Even managed to get an hour in the workshop to make a start at getting the brakes working on my ASH so I can stop the bloody thing!
It's actually only a one day event with Sunday as a back up incase Saturday doesn't work out weather wise. This usually how it's run as far as I know?!

Alright lads,
Back a bit alive on the forum!

So, for this week end, We should all meet in Killaloe, as usual, on the main street (Where the church is when you enter the village, on the side of the river).
What time do we meet ? 8 am ?
Then, we can all go to the slope, but I cannot remember how to get there, last year, I was with Peter and his great memory!  :D

Anyway, What time are we meeting at in the vilage ??

Well as you are up till 5am boozing and partying it's understandable Keith! 8)

I would way say 10:30 is more realistic for me and Keith.

We would have to leave about 5am to be there by 8!! And as I said Keith will probably be just winding down then!! :D

Got a reminder txt from Gerry Buckley yesterday. Wind looks good. Chance of a shower but this is Ireland after all!
