    I only knew your car by the Avatar sticker in the window... Don't have a clue who you are though.You could just be that car as far as I'm concerned. :D

    That seems to describe a fair few of the people that were there. :P

    I met a few people, but as it was my first meet I didn't have a clue who anyone was. Chatted to Marlow and Jemmy most, both sound as a pound, was a pleasure. :)

    dar was it you had blue shirt on?

    In overall great meeting, great turn out!

    Maybe should have group photo and use is as a reference who's who :D

    Had a blue t-shirt yeah. But it was mostly hidden by my jacket, as it was bloody freezing!

    Actually my face might have been blue from the cold as well come to think of it...

    Was I chatting to ya?

    I'd excuse him more for the fact the turning circle on that thing must be similar to that of a bus... :pac:

    Yup. That was me. :)

    I was fashionably late and then managed to park just far enough to exclude myself from nearly everyone... Haha. Smoothness. :(

    This guy must have crashed into a Dekotora shop. Fairly fancy trimming anyhow.

    3l manual Renault Avantime. Can't be many of those in Ireland.

    This geezer didn't belong to the meet, but proper offroad vehicle, for sure.

    That's me anyhow. Only had the phone to take pictures. Plenty of proper cameras around, so I reckon better pictures will turn up soon. Didn't get a picture of the DeLorean nor to see it either :(

    The Dodge is a unholy sounding beast, made it worth the trip on its own merit. Nice to meet you all. I left at about 2.30 because I was friggin' freezing! Didn't get many names, was really only chatting to a few guys. Thankfully the Alfa didn't get much attention because the Dodge parked right beside it. The Dodge, Lightning's 924, Bigus's 280SE and Padraig Mor's GS300 were the highlights for me. 123.4 miles round trip and 35mpg average including a blast to slightly over the speed limit.

    I make no excuses for the parking... & as for someone suggesting she has the turning circle of a bus.... I wish.. my Brother drives coaches & they turn great :D she also has zero 3/4 rear vision when reversing, I though the car park was empty till I got out & was shocked to see a line up of cars :P

    I think a monthly meet should be set up. Say the 2nd/3rd Saturday afternoon of every month or something.

    I can't afford to make that trip every month :/

    What about different locations each time?

    Well. Rotating schedule maybe. One month Dub, one month Portlaoise, one month Cork. Saturdays definatly to avoid conflict with other meets. Hard to make them all, even though it nearly can be done.
