Well Boy,

yes that is the very guy. Flat Eric is a bit mad and is joining to convoy from the north to Jumpstart. He is tremendous fun and yet can be quite stubborn. He insists on navigating using old Esso maps and last week threw my Sat Nav out the window.

CAMPING AT JUMPSTART

For those who want to stay this Friday night Beag has arranged camping in Loughmore.

As was the case last year, there is parking/camping available in the car park of Stapleton's Bar. It's located at the front of the pub and is all hard standing. There will be a portaloo onsite too after the pub closes............. :rofl: ....................:drinkbeer::drinking:

If people want to extend their break, parking is also available on Saturday night.

Whatever your pleasure, we all hope you enjoy your stay in Loughmore.

I got a PM from Dee a few weeks ago saying she was in the UK on holidays and would like to organise a spot prize. I was thrilled of course but I didn't think she would hit the aisles of the Volksworld Show and hit up the stall holders until they handed over some prizes!

Beag's wife met Dee this morning and apart from the wonderful prizes, Dee made a fantastic hamper so someone is going to be very happy next Saturday...................even the basket is a prize, it's a wash basin for your camper!



There is a VW dish cloth, washing brush and 3 mugs


A wall mounted bottle opener with cap catcher




Here's the cool wash basin/basket!


Thanks Dee :thanks:

Gritz was busy working in the workshop until at least 11pm last night. We were very lucky to have been given this car for the weekend and we'll tell you more later in the week. In the meantime, I'd like to say top job Gritz (y)
