    "willaims shipping" from southamption was written on the side of the barge so i'd say they are the company that was tasked with transporting the plane.

    Tug came from Southampton alright. Plenty of them in Ireland but not for rent unfortunately.

    As good an excuse as that is (and it's certainly novel!), it won't account for the hangover!

    (It's been a very long evening :eek: )

    Looks like they are shackling the spreader bar to the front set of straps now. Getting close.

    From the camera angle, I thought the plane had swung into the crane!

    I'd drive any sort of a vehicle, in any direction, anywhere - but I'm not sure I'd fancy trying to negotiate that yoke up through the streets of Enniscrone :eek:

    Camera being moved.... my cue to get the feck to bed!

    If anyone from the whole thing ever reads this - good job lads! The dreamer, the planners, the movers, the craners, the cameras, the fella on the junction with Main Street - I can't concieve of how many people (and how much money :eek:) must have gone into the whole thing - what an operation - what a fecking phenomenon!!!
