Thanks I'm honored.
My two daughters live in Ballina and Sligo.
Not that far from Donegal.
I hope to meet up with some of your guys on a future trip

Wow just when you think it can't get any better ! Great weekend lads ! Great catching up again and great to meet some new faces.The only disappointment Unfortunately was the faulty guitar handed to our love boat singer mr richie. After trying his best Tuneing at the bar , in the hall and even outside the inn it just wants happening for him he did make a lot of noise tho 
The flying was at its best as usual and I always manage to pick up some new tricks. Thanks again all ...

RE: Jet Modellers Association of Ireland
just home,
5hr trip butas usual the "crack" was mighty ,met up with old friends and some new .....will need a day off now to recover!!!!
Offally is one I always look forward to ....
did get to see the pink flash unfortunately wasnt just ready to fly but will be, the next time we are there !Aideen had to work so didnt have time to program the F....... transmitter with the long life battery
awesum little jet with a JC140 will be a rocket ,
good luck with her Rob,
no doubt a few more of these will appear soon ,
I must say the Northern Boys really stood out in the crowd ...well ...at least they were better looking...
apart from the one in the little blue van 
pin doctor needed no pins this weekend and dont think anyone else needed his sevices either .....DW will not be at all well !!
congratulations to Andy on the successful maiden of his hawk ,such a nice flight for a first one !Well done Mike !
Richie ,also well done with the little L39 ,a slippy little jet but you handled it superbly ,dont know what was wrong with the guitar ,have never seen any one try to play it back to front before
Dermot impressed me with his flying every flight and landing just got better and better...
Roll On next Offally Jets

RE: Jet Modellers Association of Ireland
Ooooooh !!! Nasty Seamus nasty... we will make you eat them words next time I think we held our own what do you think Andy. Weather was forgiving tho which was great. To give you guys some credit and its only some , very little to be honest, not even really worth talking about come to think of , like .01 of a percent or something like that but I do have to admire the amount of flights and back to back flying you guys do put in while down here. Your like a buch of mad lunatics let or signed out for the day and just go mad in the best way possible I mean. I always look foreward to meeting the group at these events and can't wait for the next. Seamus the small bit of flying you put in did look good . Will bring the binoculars the next time so we can see what your at up there
