We only got a few hundred yards up the road when Louis' Bus coughed to a halt. With the Burren being a National Park tourist after tourist drive into it with camera in hand but what they didn't expect to see were 2 nuns standing by their Bus. Some of their expressions were priceless as they struggled to know WTF was going on.........not helped by the sight of a priest, mother superior, a bishop and some mini Dougals complete with red jumpers!
Once again, Mr. Dollery saved the day and as the water ran down the side of the road after yet another torrential rain shower he lay on the ground under her Bus and rewired the fuel pump...............that's him on the left - you might have to squint as the poor bollox had to wedge himself between the Bus and some thorns!
Most headed on for Spanish point with 6 of us hanging about.

I really enjoyed the day and have to say hats off to the Eireballers for braving the weather which has been up and down all week. Speaking of weather, that was shite on my way home last night. It was torrential rain, flooding and wind (from me too 
) all the way from Spanish Point to Limerick which really tested the wipers and lights on Burty - they failed that test for sure
I'd highly recommend you guys try and head out to join them on a leg of their trip this week if you can. Don't forget to donate a few quid too.

Is this the bus that had the leprechauns and stuff all over it before ?

Hadnt seen it around in a long while and thought they might have done a job on it.Think i saw it in the portarlington Paddys day parade before
Many new friends made, new VW tales to tell and more parts to fix.
Worst part............ Torrential rain up near the top of Molls Gap (ring of Kerry) just as we were about to descend and my wipers letting me down!
Highlight.................See above!
Plenty more pics of drunken antics but think I'll keep those offline for now!
