Having just coming back from one of those rare events a dry NW200 when I get off my backside will post a few photos in the mean time if you were the Irish lad with his other eating fish and chips at Bushmills and wondered how anyone knows about Polish crash bars :icon_redface: if was me.

On the way to Dublin the Irish Rangers practice boarding the boat  :icon_eek:



The XR is nowhere near ready to get the job done so the old girl did it no problem.



If you watch Game of Thrones the Dark Hedges!!



Dun Luce Castle or what's left of it.

Cheers Chris, one of the few places I really would like to get to before I croak, worked in the North a lot, but never got into the Republic. Should be easy for me too with Pembroke an easy ride away.

I still find it incredible, and massively humbling, that at the time of his death he was still only 26.

I was wondering about the grave when you mentioned it, as I would have known about that being here. So I googled it and found that it was as I thought. He was the guy that came down in Steenbergen and was buried there, not in Goes. ;) But yes, sad to loose a guy like that like this.

And that he died under not-quite-clear circumstances.
