Folks,

It was a brilliant day for our first time hiring out Kartworld and I would like to thank Nicola, Frank, and the two catering girls for treating us so well today. It would not have run so smoothly without the man-in-the-hat Keith who did the marshalling and to Rosalie who helped round up people when I was on the track myself. Neil stepped in to help with the driver registration.

Everyone behaved themselves but still had a great time giving it the lash.

We'll definitely be back in Kartworld again sometime.

Billy

PS I didn't have a camera so please get some photos up here.

It was a super day alright, fair play to Billy and crew for having it so well organized.
It was great chatting to everyone and meeting some members that i hadnt met before. I dont think i have ever had as much fun in my mini as i did today.
Also thanks Keith, who met me in Abbeyleix early this morning.
Heres a few photos i took, there was plenty of cameras around so in sure we'll see plenty more hopefully!!
