    Banned. (Joking, of course!)

    So it being prepared during the week. Looks pretty good. Bus running from O'Shea's Hotel in Tramore for those heading from the Tramore direction.

    A great fundraiser idea, best of luck to them. :)

    Well this turned out to be a really great day out. Only €6 per adult and children free and all for a good cause. We really didn't think that there would be as much to see and do. Had a go at the archery (don't ask....), the kids had some fun on the Rally simulator, the models were really great fun also, some nice Harley Davidsons (didn't get a chance to visit the Hairy Hogs Bar), lots of trucks and vintage tractors as well. Nice to see the Airport Fire tender up close as well as the Army Mowag.

    Thanks wellboytoo for the pics, we can actually see ourselves sitting at a table in front of the stage:D

    Just to echo whats been said already. Great show plenty to fill the afternoon or two for everyone. The dry, calm weather obviously made a difference like at all these events but the location was ideal even if it got wet. Plenty of unfortunately empty buildings to shelter which were filled with more stalls and hobby displays. Hope its back next year.

    Frank, if you have been getting lessons which I presume you have, then your instructor should be able to answer this for you, you must be paying him enough! Get him to show you the difference too so you fully understand.
