I'll get my first taste of Irish rallying, arriving tomorrow for scrutineering and leaving on Monday.

Hi Juha,

You're the third person to warn me about the pubs.

The plan is to meet JOB tomorrow. No idea what I'll end up doing after that.

I had a great weekend in Millstreet, thanks to our friend JOB and his family, as well as the Murphy's and the Irish snappers.

Superb photo's as usual Juha

Agreed.

Maybe Juha might put up a photo of "the window" if he wouldn't mind - its the best I have come across.

GREAT SHOTS!!!

Thanks guys!

This is what the model display in the square looked like:

Thanks Juha for posting that.

Donie and myself got the use of a window in an empty shop so we populated it with 85 models - mostly local models just for the rally weekend. So Millstreet was spoiled for choice with Sean Buckelys 1/18 exhibition in the Museum at one end of town that attracted considerable interest and our attempt at window dressing at the other side of town.

Great photos as always Juha

You're welcome.

Had a chat with Donie on Sunday, and his mate. His friends needs new glasses though, he reckoned I looked 36. Either that or I just look 10 years older than I really am. I hope it's the former.

And before anyone asks, I'd only been drinking Coke up to that point so it had nothing to do with Irish beer.

cracking photos

Class snaps, Juha. Glad you enjoyed the visit.

Thank you!

Great pictures as usual Juha.
Hope you enjoyed your experience of irish rallying.

For those who want to see what Donie aka Turn the Wheel looks like go to Millstreet.ie and you will see a few piccies of Donie hard at work putting the display together.         

Hi Juha glad you enjoyed your FIRST Cork 20 Rally......first of many I hope......I got you a pint of Heineken and you disappeared........any photos of car no 34 ?????

Heineken Donie - he went straight for the black stuff. We had to get all the bouncers and a few more burly men to get him out of the hotel and into my car .

No, you got me a Murphy's because I refused to drink that Heineken shit! Murphy's was good, next time I'll get you one.

And I didn't disappear, I just grabbed a seat 1 metre away and was talking to your friend, whose name I've forgotten but I'm not talking to him any more after he said I looked 36 instead of 26.

What's your e-mail address? I'll send you the pics.

I walked from the bar to your car without physical support and without crashing into every piece of furniture along the way, I was more or less sober because I'd had some black stuff named Coca Cola too, thank you.    

I can see you coming back for MORE Juha........my email address is donieluceydl@yahoo.ie
