Irish Mini Owners Club

Just in the door. Was a good run home. Martin Murphy got a bit held up leaving the field as the traffic killed the by pass hose. Himself and the Grey Crow had it sorted and soon caught us up again. We all stopped for grub in the Beehive Pub and then heading on for Wexford.

Great day... Looking forward to next weekend now....

another great day out but eventfull, thanks to John for staying behind at the show when i burst a bypass hose at the gate, we had it sorted and caught up with the wexford crew, who by the way looked great in their new IMOC shirts.

great day hope everyone got home safe

It was a great day alright, it was my first time at Mosney and has to be one of the biggest vintage and classic car shows I was ever at.
Great chatting to everyone!

Here are a few mini shots from the show:

Talked to Ben (Rebecca's Father) yesterday evening - he told me that she will be fine again, there is no spinal damage, she will probably be in pain for a few weeks because - if I understood him correctly - she unfortunately had turned her head to the rear at the time of the impact.
Fair play to Ben and his wife Ruth(?) who stayed calm and professional after the first shock was over.
We are so glad that nobody was seriously hurt, especially the little fella who has been very brave.
And thanks to the nice women from the Irish Red Cross who took care of Judith - she would have collapsed as she had a huge shock (wouldn't even talk to me at that point...).

We were lucky.
So were you guys who had the Muffins (Judith made them) as the Red Cross and Gardai all declined to take one.

Our apologies to all the people whose day we ruined, especially to Dave and Killian who stood by us to make sure we were all right, even though they weren't directly involved.

Another thing: Ayla (our little black dog) is fine as well, she had a special harness and was secured with a carabiner belt to belt lock thingy.
I attached a spare belt lock to the inner wing.
I would recommend this setup to every dog owner as a dog starting to fly in an accident or even a harsh brake maneuver can seriously harm itself or you!

Some pictures:

thanks guy's for all your help and concern, especially cillian and dave.
heard it was a great day!!
see ya all again soon.

good to hear you are ok, lots more events planned for the year see you at some of them.
