I don't mind at all, wherever. I suppose the Maxol near the Parkway shopping center would be on the way.
I'll leave it up to you though

I presume you'll be passing by my house en-route (via Killaloe)?

Not from Killaloe to Portumna (presuming you're traveling that way - possibly not if coming from Dublin).
Around Portumna itself is very tricky at the moment (bridge was closed) but hopefully a couple of fine days should help a lot with water levels.

I need to take off earlyish on the Sunday morning.

I assume that flooding is not currently an issue in around the catchment area?

Berno, Cullen, what time will I meet ye at Finnegans?

Also guys, (and I know you are fairly copped on) but can you please expect the unexpected around corners?

I'm terrified as I haven't been karting since the accident. If you are going to hit me please be prepared to drive me to the nearest hospital.

The last time I ended up in crutches with a busted leg, then back to emergency for the second time with heavily bruised lungs.

Yes I was driving flat out and yes, I spun, but they could have swerved around me!! Not only did they break me but they broke the kart as well!

I booked a twin and a single, I was going to cancel the single but you're welcome to it if you like.
I'm sure the hotel could sort it out on the day.

Let me know if you want it.

In relation to karting, we're booked in for 1pm - can everyone try to get there by 12.30am to ensure we have sufficient time to suit up, run through the briefing etc. See you tomorrow.

Laura, you sound genuinely concerned, if you're not comfortable heading out on track then theres no shame in hanging back - seriously. No one is going to be purposely crashing into you but collisions happen during competition, thats karting....

+1 no point taking part if you are not going to enjoy it.
