Ireland: - Idea's for Meet and Drive...

NI_Volvo_Nut · Jun 19th, 2009, 08:00

Hey guys

At the last show you guys expressed an interest in another leg stretching episode for our much loved trusty steeds...

So, throw up some ideas... I'm thinking of maybe putting our wee run to good use, maybe stopping through a few villages along the way with a collection bucket, and turning it into a small charity event. As most of you know the Foyle Hospice is a cause close to my heart following personal events of last year, so I'd like to do it for them, but I'm open to suggestions of other charitys.

I've not really got any ideas of where to go ect yet, but I'm thinking maybe a tour of the North?

Date wise I'm thinking end of Aug sometime?

Give me your thoughts guys....

The last couple of years (excluding 2008) the Irish members got together in Mullingar, pretty much slap bang in the centre of Ireland. If you can weigh up the Southern members (email list) with the recent Northern members this location might be a good opportunity to get everyone back together.

Other than that, I can vouch for a blast down the North coast or a jaunt around Lough Neagh!

I'd be up for something like that as it's a long way up the north from where I am down the South, somewhere central is more fair all round I'd say anyway
