In good news, nothing… Read More
Right, how to explain this….. February 20, 2024 We are home from Killarney Forest Rally with a First in Class 11F and the Sligo Pallets “Drive of the day” award. The morning didn’t look like that would happen at all….. The day got better when Colin Neligan and Eoin O’Donoghue grabbed third in class 11F. That bloody Fiesta… Read More
