Anyone up for a mini-meet somewhere in Dublin or nearby next week?

This would be to facilitate the following:
- meeting
- distributing oil
- having a laff
- oogling over richies latest mod(s)

May i suggest wed night (20th july) at say, Jonny Foxes pub, 8.00pm?

Very much open to other suggestions also Arms Out

Paul

Cheers for the directions Killian. 

Richie -  I'll get those bulbs from you at the meet, if you're heading over. Can you PM me a price for high-bright reversing bulbs, parking lights and front fog-light bulbs?
