Yep Lenso RS5.. white with polished dish!....emmmm suits you sir! :D

Will they fail ur NCT for camber being a bit off? (mines also due) didn't think they would bother with the measurement.
I have a top "dogbone" that is shot and am ordering a replacement I have since got camber adjustment bolts to fit to square it up a bit.. you could just order new bolts and start swinging off the old ones after wd40 etc..if they break they break! or if you have to saw them off then at least you have replacements! Tell you sister I said hi! :wink:

I was told they'd fail for a camber cause the equipment is after improving in recent years, but I'd say its more the tyre wear caused by the camber they'd spot. I'm going to run mine through first if I cant get it done though to see what happens first.

Bernard how do we find your house from Askeaton town? I know how to get to the town but no idea where from there. 'Bernard's House' doesnt come up in Google Maps or AA, dont know why! Planning on being at yours for 11. That ok or is to early?

Maybe Bernard should PM the directions to all those down for coming so that his address isn't on the site for all to see...

Ah sure what's the worst that could happen?

Here's the GPS co-ordinates: N52°35.204' W008°56.242'
You can copy and paste into google maps :D

If you're coming from Askeaton take the R518 heading for Rathkeale.
About 1 1/2 miles up the road there's a big new house on the left.
Take the left turn immediately after it.
Another 1 1/2 miles down that road there's a long very clean stone wall on the left.
There're two bungalows at the end of that wall, one on either side of the road, I'm on the right.
There's an even narrower road running beside my house, don't take that :wink:

Also you'll see a very shiny (hopefully) FTO parked in front of the house :D

I plan on sticking a couple of arrows on either side of the turn on the main road, should help.

I'd say it's out, there was only 4 or 5 names, so no point.
You'd need at least 10 to make it worthwhile.

That actually worked!
So coming from Cork we take a right turn at cragmore cross and youre down there. Sound.
What does that cross look like, according to google maps theres only one turn off all the ways from rathkeale to askeaton.

Chances are you'll pass it, it's very easy to miss.
I'll stick a sign before it on Saturday night but even if you do miss it, there's a T junction two minutes afterwards so you'll know you've gone wrong.
Going the other way it's at the top of the hill before a slight bend.
You can't miss the Big new house on the corner with a stone wall.

Not that I don't have complete confidence in your navigating abilities :wink:

Well Bernard, don't come running to me when all the bums come to your door looking for an inn for the night, sure, throw a candle up in the window too :lol:

In fairness though, it's too late now, but I wouldn't want people knowing the exact location of that fabulous car of yours... :?

The meets section is for registered members only, so it's not as public as some of the others.
I can always edit the post after the meet anyway, oh and I've a big dog :wink:

Unless all the "+1's" are males :r then I think we'll have more than enough ladies at the meet.
