Irish Mini Owners Club

Johnny Murphy has got us invited to display our Minis in the Mallow St. Patrick's Day Parade on March 17th.

Mallow is the point where the N20 Cork-Limerick road meets the N72 Dungarvan-Killarney road so it should suit most of our Southern Region members though everyone is invited along with their 1959-2000 Mini.

Entry to the parade is free and we'll assemble at the Toyota garage on the Limerick side of Mallow no later than 12.30.

Contact Johnny at 087-9503913 or let us know on this topic.

Actually Billy.....I've had a change of heart.......you can count me in for the parade !!!

You can count me in for this one.Going to make a weekend of it.Leaving naas on saturday for fermoy,will be camping out there till tuesday. First big run since I finished the build,wish me luck

Thomas said he might pop along to this aswell Billy.......so that should be two cars from Limerick. Any ideas on numbers showing up ?

Goose,

I don't know myself but Johnny Murphy has been ringing all members and hopefully there should be a decent turnout. The plan is to do the parade and meet up afterwards for a cuppa and a chat.

See you tomorrow,

Billy

wasnet talking to them if im honest
i meant is the road closed for a parade in charleville

Pat,

I know the Charleville vintage lads are going to Mallow as that's how Johnny Murphy got the invite. Even if there is a parade in Charleville, there will be a detour along the road which runs parallel to the main street on the Kilmallock side. You shouldn't have a problem.

Billy

cool
got the mini insured so should see ye there!!!!
