Cavan meet up sounds good, any suggestions on venue?

Is there anyone coming along (e.g. FTO widows) who aren't participating in activies? I ask on behalf of Mrs. CJ who will most likely be sat on the sidelines....

Theres a roundabout where the N55 (assume Munster lads will come this route) meets the N3 (Dublin route), we should aim to stop somewhere shortly afterwards. I'm not familar with the area - anyone?

Jaysus, early start some of ye lads. Just wanted to say good luck to ye, and take plenty of pics.

Great meet guys and girls, great to catch up with ya all.

Thought Todds Leap was great craic, except my legs are now killing me, thanks in no small part to Martin for repeatedly shooting at them from about 20ft!
Hotel session was up to the usual standards as well, as were the hangovers.

(this thread has been scaled down slightly, some lists and directions removed in the interests of making the thread more readable)

Didn't get too many pics, here's two from Sunday morning:

Great weekend despite the low numbers, big thanks to Colm on the organisation front.
