^An excellent day out, the weather was superb. We were very well fed too!

I was down that direction on Sunday too so I caught up with the run and followed you to Keating's. Took a few pics at the lunch stop, some of the same cars and a few of the other ones too. There was a few unusual cars there.

I posted them on our club facebook page. Even though we are based in the Kildare, Meath, Offaly, Dublin region, sometimes its nice to see cars from a different part of the country, see something different for a change! Lovely weather and setting too

10,000 poster on this thread... nice

Dryadssaddle, Thanks for putting up the pic, they look very well. I will try and attempt to put up mine when I get the knowhow. I hope both of you enjoyed the day, and we will see you again at another rally. Static Rally in Carrigoran on Sun. 13th April.

Mr Foxman 360, Thank you for joining us on our rally in West Clare last Sun. I hope you enjoyed the scenery and hospitality. I like members coming from other clubs and exchanging views and ideas. I am sorry we did not meet up. What car were you driving?

Carchaeologist, Thank you for coming, I am delighted you enjoyed West Clare Scenery & Food. What car were you driving, I am sorry we did not meet up. It was indeed a lovely day out. I hope you will join us again for another rally.

I was a passenger in the 120Y Matt, we normally double up in cars coming over due to due to the cost of the ferry. I was talking to you, i was the guy asking about the yellow grille plates outside Keatings. I thought you knew me, oops!
We will return, Gerry o Dea will be on to us if we don't!

Thanks Matt, my Girlfriend is from Kilrush so I was down that way for the day. I had seen the ad for the run on donedeal and so, as we were out for a drive we 'concidently' happened across your run. I followed you from Carrigaholt up to Keatings, and stopped to take a few pics. I was just driving my every day Ford Focus, but maybe next year, or maybe later this year if you have another run, I might bring the Zephyr or the P4 down and join in.

I like going to events that other clubs are running. You end up going to new places that you probably havent been before and to see different cars and machines, that you wouldn't see at more local events. And I like meeting new people that have knowledge and skills or even stories about old cars and things. Was often thinking that it would be nice to get a few guys from our club to join in with a run down the country for some different scenery; there ain't no coastline in Kildare!

Nice to see old French stuff, reminds me of holidays in France when I was young :P

Photoshop the only Photoshop I use is the chemist where I print off my photos :P:P

Seriously, will try it later , looks a good way to display multiple photos

It is, he works in the tax office, at least its always parked there when I go in to hand over the odd €56 every so often.
He also has something else like a lotus or a replica Ferrari or something, I saw it once or twice but can't remember exactly what it was.

That's where I saw it parked. I was in taxing my car EARLY for a change. For the next couple of days I am in credit with Big Ugly Phil..:)

IKI915. Snapped in Kerry this weekend. The brick on the bonnet is not too promising though

Thats how they lower them in Kerry!

Spotted in Sligo (I think) yesterday.



It's always nice to see vehicles with original irish reg, that still are used as daily.
