    Maybe so Mrs H but I was mopping up water from the room under our house at 3am this morning. We had a lot of rain come down in the evening and then after midnight it really turned on the tap and it just didn't stop for more than an hour. I think we have to get some serious drainage done since it seems to be underground water building up against the block wall and then seeping through as I have stopped all the surface water as far as I know. Though seeping is not necessarily the right word for the speed it sometimes comes in.

    So when I said wet I meant here at home . Though you know I hate to get the Disco dirty .

    Hi all.

    Was good to meet you guys even if it was only for 10 mins or so.
    Apparently there was a motorbike gathering at Killarney which explains all the bikes you saw.
    Also the drizzle never let up. Packed up wet and have the camper open and airing in the driveway at the moment.

    As for not wanting to get the Disco3 dirty. There were 3 or so guys in our group that did part of the river crossing track on mountain bikes!
    They came back soaked and covered in mud spray but had a ball.

    See you at the next one.

    Hmm.... I think I have to defend the D3's honour here. Justin, that was a very tongue in cheek comment . MrsH has seen the D3 dirty and knows that I would not pull out for that. It was playing in the mud up at Beerburrum when it had less than 5k on the clock.

    Though I must admit the thought of having to clean it up before getting it ready to go away for Easter wasn't a great thought.

    Glad you all had a good time without us (sniff). But then like DJH said, no pics and it didn't happen.
