Great weather today made for a nice change as the last few years it was raining. I got there early and after the Williams boys slagged off my work clothes and suggested I go to the secondhand clothes tent I decided to leave Burty there and head up to my fathers house and grab some clothes I had left there!

This one was mine a few years ago - don't know who owns it now.

Well you had a nice day for it. Would have been fine only I went onto the shots at 4 in the morning. Don't you love residents bars.
Will get there next year!

Sunny day + hangover + a loud VW = one painful day! I've done it before and it's not nice so I hope you had a veg day on the couch!

No I had to drive the beetle back from the wedding lol but I took it handy this time. Sat her at 50.
While we're on it, theirs a shot I had last night. It was kinda bad in a good way. It has chilli's in it and basically your mouth is
on fire for the next half an hour. Anybody know of it? can't remember the name.

Woke up very late and headed into Limerick for the last hour of the show. It was so late that I left my own beetle in the public car park.
Here a few of my vw shots from the day

jaysus!! after Fermoy on VAGdrivers there was a massive bitch fest after someone discovered a handprint on their car after leaving it for 5 minutes. If they saw yer one trying to open the engine lid they'd be organising a linch mob...

I suppose that's one of the main differences between the air & water gangs. I was watching her as she tried to open it, giving the locked boot a good tug to be sure to be sure :D
I think she was trying to show her kids that the engine is in the back. I had only been talking to Colin & Glenn Williams about this and why people feel they are allowed to open the doors and engine lid of our cars.
