Milford Hospice Fair (Limerick) August 30th

[Coxy]

The Milford Hospice Fair date has been announced for Sunday 30th August. It's the same venue as last year which is also the same venue as the Limerick Classic Car Show this year.
The hospice is very close to my heart and provides great services to both patients and families, as do all hospices, and this year will be the first year in a long time I'll have Burty at it. I know that many eircooled people made it last year and I am very grateful to them for attending on a miserable wet day but hopefully the weather will hold out this year and as such I would ask for your support.
The venue in Castletroy is a car park so no getting stuck in the grass if it is wet. We have a lot of new cars in the club over the last few weeks so it would be nice to see them out and about.

BTW, can we make this a sticky please?

 

[george]

done - i'll try make this in the buggy, if its dry!!

 

[Brosna]

This was a really nice show last year (even if it pissed all day) and for a great cause.
Ill be there.

:cooool:

......but if it is raining I have a red, a black or a white umbrella if you want to borrow one fo them and we can use Vdubber's gazebo as a temp garage to keep it dry :blink:

 

[george]

it will be the first time I'll put a wetsuit on to drive a car!!

 

[kvinyl]

I'll try and make this too if possible. It was a good day out last year, despite the rain. The swapmeet/free for all and the 'Amazing Talking Head' made the trip down worth it alone...

I might go to this. Is this near the University?

 

[Coxy]

Yeah, if you head for the Uni it will be signposted and if all else fails you'll see the crowds of people and all the vintage cars so just follow the crowd.

I think this is on (or very, very close to) where the Limerick show was earlier this summer? The one with a mixture of watercooled, aircooled and other classics.

Why is it called a fair? What else will be going on besides showing off cars?
And what time does it start in the morning?
