Presentation dinner
We are getting ready for the presentation dinner, 'dressed tonimpress' and all that, but what I am really looking forward too..... A good nights sleep, in a propper bed, with no snoring or other unmentionable noises (from other tents!!) it's been 3 nights since 'we' had more than 4 hours sleep, & I just cannot survive on that little sleep anymore!!
Will post again after the, dinner presentation. ;0)

Back to Dublin
Fantastics routes today around West Ireland, then lomg rin from Galway back to Dublin and the ferry to Holyhead.
The "Lake District" of Ireland is absolutely superb, the scenery is second to none, got to head out that way next time we're in Ireland.
Goodness knows what sort of position in the challenge we are. Having stopped to help a fellow competetor, we were too late to do a couple of sections of this afternoons stage, so have missed out on some potential points. But, you just can't pass a brokendown fellow competetor. Good to see they made it to the ferry under their own steam.
Off to the race course on Anglesey when get off the ferry arpind midnight tonight. Wonder what's in store for us tommorow.

Nearly ready
Well, it's been a while since I put anyhting on here.
In the last couple of months, the truck has had a fair bit of work done on it.
Front diff, drive shafts, hubs, bearing, brakes etc... all chnaged.
Gearbox and transfer box changed.
Rear axle changed.
Other than that, not much been happening. Last few jobs getting done this week, and we'll be packing up on Wednesday eve, for the off on Thursday morning.
Really lookign forward to it now. A couple weeks ago, I was wondering if it's all worth it, when I couldn't trace a strange noise the truck was making. Now now what it is and can live with it.
Ofcourse, all the hard work and effort put into getting the truck ready is always going to be worth it - the money the event raises for the Macmillan Nurses is worth every drop of blood, sweat and tears.
Anyway, watch this space (save it as a favourite for the next few days and keep track of where we are and what we're up to.
