A car show is held every year in the Ballroom of the Slieve Donard Hotel in Newcastle County Down and the proceeds raised go towards Cancer Charities. This year it will open on Friday 25th January, all day Saturday and finish on Sunday 26th January. Theres usually about 40 cars, some very classy machinery and also every day classics. Ive been asked to show my traveller at it this year :D

Heres a ink to the hotel to find out were it is, please do come along and support this show if your in the area

Thanks for reminding me about this. I got it into my head it was on end of february. Very good about your traveller, don't forget the autoglym. I think am off that weekend so will see what happens.

Hope you have a great time David - Slieve Donard is a fantastic hotel - I stayed there a few years ago when I was speaking at a conference and had a great time. I might try and get over to see the show if I can - Hope the days weather is as good as the last time I was there in October![frame]Image[/frame]

This was from Murlough Bay Nature Reserve :D

This shows on this weekend if anyones in the area. I left the traveller down on Thursday, it needed washed again by the time I got to Newcastle, but there was already a very impressive gathering of cars.[frame]Image[/frame]

I really hope it doesnt leak oil and stain on that nice expensive carpet.......

Ive just got a fancy new phone and couldnt work out how to load it on to the pc, then realised I could load it to facebook, save and copy it, Im finally moving into the technical age...... :o

Great pictures Andrew! As Stevey says a nice wee puddle of oil underneath, thankfully I had the foresight to put a piece of plastic below to save the carpet :D
