Behold the Irish Camp

[dancingmonkee]

I had intended to put this up earlier in the week, but I kept trying to do it at 3am and realising it was time to sleep

So here goes one and all.

Leaving from the North of Ireland to reach Dublin for 2am, we made it in good time. As we headed for the boat in Dublin, unfortunately for us, the tunnel that heads straight to it was closed, and we spent a very nervous half hour trying to find our way round it

Finally getting off the boat in Wales around 6am we just kept driving.
Until finally I spotted this:



So naturally, we had to take pictures!



I couldn't help admire the Welsh scenery, so anyone here from Wales, I congratulate you





So lets crack on to the Camp
It took a while getting there for us to find it, but we still arrived early, being like the 6th or 7th car there

So we just had to wait for our awesome friend to show up in this;



I have no idea what his Screen name is, but Hi Ron and co if your looking!



So after a relatively quiet and isolated friday night.
Saturday was clearly drinking day, because Ron started filling my cup from 5pm and we didn't stop until 2am.
Every 5mins he would lean over and ask curiously 'Top-up'?

Didn't take long until I was leaning my cup over and asking 'Top-up'? myself
So it's entirely his fault for my extreme tipsiness that night



So Sunday came after Saturday obviously, cause things happen like that;










The winner of Dare to be different;
The guy who owns this was very nice to us when we showed up drunken at his tent to look at it



A beautiful track when you looked at it:


I never would have thought if the sign didn't warn us



Some scenic parking;



I have other photos, but everyone has the same, I just wanted to show what I seen

I've never had such a good weekend away anywhere.
I have to say thank you to Ron and his Estelle buddies, Damien and Lauren, the Scottish ones, John who provided the wine and got drunk with me. And everyone else, it was awesome.
Oh and Barcsrapid as I finally got to drive a car like mine

It was very memorable

Can't wait till next year!

I had videos, but their massive in size, but I'll see what I can do

That would be the legend that is - jikovron, one of the best mates a bloke could have, and what he doesnt know about cars isnt worth knowing ;D

andrew ,,the camping was of extreme awesomeness, it was indeed a privelege to be part of the 'irish/scotts with a smatteing of northerners camp' i think next year needs more skoda rapids of which damien ,,<<< you were under the influence clearly with your made up names tut tut ;D kieran and lauren should both have a pair of them,,so at least 4 next year with yours and Wills machine i expect

pandaman,,, you speak way too kind words ,,,next year get your ass down there ,no excuses we'll get the cobra 0% alc specially for you,,obviously when peeling back the cobra label,,,it'll really be broon ale or whiskey obviously the immense rrg show should be enough incentive anyway

roll on rrg2012 is say so we can do it all again

I was clearly under the influence if thats the name I remember
I remembered it was Kieran now that you say it. Sorroe to Kieran/Damian

It was full of awesomeness indeed, I enjoyed getting a ride in your Estelle, and getting to drive a Rapid, nice touch to the weekend.

Maybe next year I'll be able to bring my own alcohol. But taking everyone else's was more fun

4 Rapids will be an awesome camp to have. Just have to make sure it's working soon!

[skoda_kay]

epic weekend, and some good pictures you have there to document it.

if not a rapid for next year I SHALL have an estelle (more likely an estelle, their saloon-ness has a certain charm about it.) roll on rrg2012 (and alcohol drinkage) as the Ron man says

Damien...
Kieran

[laurenzo]

Definately be bringing the rapid next year, can't wait!!
