Yep, inch strand it is Aidan. Gorgeous place. Perfect for testing the handbrake cable tension as you might be able to see in the pics (you can take the boy out of Dublin....lol)

:shock: Just back from an EPIC trip in Betty (our 98 cooper) Decided to make up for the fact we missed the past 2 mtm's by treating her to a nice jaunt around the south west for a couple of days. First port of call was a funny little B&B in Ballyhooley for a couple of ESB cable ties and a cup of...

Model Minis

In the middle of revamping a room at home to try and make it into a nice place to do some work at home. Jill suggested I do something with the pile of dusty model minis I had in the corner... Worked out quite nicely I think :mrgreen: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4142/4868935069_2c0e6532c6.jpg http...
