    Not sure if it was open for the last meet there, but there is motorway all the way to Kilbeggan now, and then it's only a short trip over to Tullamore. There is a ring road around Tullamore as well, which will bring you out right on the Charleville Road.

    Hi Sesby

    I registered on your site with my full details on the 23rd at about 16:45, just shortly before I posted here. I got an email confirmation as well. Is there any reason why my name is not marked off on the above list.

    Cheers

    Philip


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭Sebzy


    Sorted.
