Who would be interested ?
we just looking at ferries and was wondering do we need to book seats or cabin as these are charged extra or would there be plenty of free seating when we get on there ??

Of course all Mk1 welcome! I sent out a reminder (to all Irish Region members) last week to generate/gauge interest.

I fly home on the 2nd September, so i am gauging the reaction of my wife at the moment, i may just have to bring the tent and camp as it will be a last minute decision.

Hi Andy it could be a cracking weekend - just hope the weather holds up too.
Welcome to spin down to Kilkenny/Waterford direction (at leisure) and link with us on the Friday night. I'm meeting the guys off the boat about 19:30 in Waterford after the toll bridge. Head for Sneem then.

This is it…
![:thumbs:](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images/ocf_emoticons/thumbs.png)
Couple of bits to note:
Our Start and Finish points are at car park of the Sneem Bay Hotel in Sneem, Co Kerry. Its a little over 200KM so have filled up with fuel!
Going to say meet and greet from 10-10:30 am with info meet and maps available here. Lunch and fuel stop is in Goldens of Kells eta here is approx 13:30.
After lunch planning on taking the ferry onto Valentia Island for €6 single and coming back over the Skellig Ring into Ballinskelligs. This is supposed to be pretty steep and narrow and not for the faint-hearted but the views are spectacular out onto the Islands. On Map above you can follow the red route to miss the steep bit and link later.

We want the cars to convoy as much as possible together but if you want to do your own thing and meet at the meeting points that's Ok too.
Plan to be back in Hotel for 18:00 time for Jacuzzi / Guinness / Sleep?
Mk1 Dinner in the Hotel @ 20:00 if not staying in the hotel make your reservation with myself or Paul and we will book you in.
Should be a great weekend.

Well the general consensus from the family is that i should go, seems it will be used as my birthday treat. I just need to get Heather to see if a room is still available as calls from the middle east are not the best, if not it will be a tent for me.
Andy
That's great news Andy.

There should be still vacancies under our booking name see page 2 on this thread. Still welcome to link with us on Friday eve or head down earlier yourself. Paul will be in the hotel on the Friday night to link with early arrivals.

AA says 198 miles to Sneem from rosslare , 4 1/2 hour drive. Ferry due in 1845 so it's getting on midnight by the time we get there.
230 miles in eng/wales
Hope the bar is still open

If you do not book by Saturday evening the remaining rooms will be opened to the general public and sold accordingly - so you have a few days remaining to get your self booked in! Again first come first served basis.
Come on lads and lassies… the weather is going to pick up too…
