yea, it's the first time and rather painfull too :D but to be honest, having to sit in the house and do nothing is even worse, and of course it's my right arm, nearly stabbed myself in the eye with my toothbrush this morning ! Left hand is totally useless.

The worst thing is how i did it. I was washing the car and tripped over the hose - dumbass, I wouldnt mind so much if I was doing something cool

Oouch! Pete - keep taking the tablets. Sure there's always another day.

Freq-Mod - You might think of the Tipperary Mountains Run on the 20th. Some nice bendy roads and great scenery. Starts and ends in Cashel and , with most of the drive from the big smoke motorway, it's only aout 1.5 to 1.75 hour drive down.

Will do my best to make that, can't commit though as I'm away from the following day so may need the sat free.

I'm down that way often enough though, may call on you for a mid-week spin over the next while if I'm there when the evenings are a bit longer.

give me a shout if ya wanna try it this week. We do it most sundays( the mourne route) up to Carlingford or Newry and there are so many variations of roads there that i doesnt really matter which you chose to be honest. The rally boys test there officially and un officially !!!

Thats a pisser alright, cost a few bob to fix that one. We can do it again. Dont wanna miss first GP with all the hype but getting lessons on numbered pacenotes early morning so that, a run up with herself and lunch and the GP???? somethings gonna suffer.
