Cavan rally

Went to the Cavan stages rally today. Involved fast, loud cars driving really fast down small country Cavan roads. That part i expected.
I was told to wear waterproof shoes as we may have to walk through a field. I should have brought climbing gear. In order to get a good vantage point we had to jump across ditches, climb over barbed wire and gates, and hike up a hill through a forest. I couldn't  climb up on of the ditches so the picture here was my view for that stage. Being short, and the only girl in group was a bit of a nuisance.
Lessons learned: when going to a rally, wear non slip  runners, layers (as the weather changes rapidly) and prepare to get dirty.
Don't tell anyone, but by the end, i kind of enjoyed it.
Toodles..

And so it begins...

This is to be the first of many posts. This blog at the moment will not have one specific theme but will hope to cover all that distracts me. These things, I hope, will also distract you.

Bit of background first methinks! Computer programming graduate living in a small town in, what is known as, the northeast of Ireland.  In my early 20's and living with my boyfriend in a small ish house.

Big interest in movies, music, some fashion and golden nuggets of the internet.

That's it for the moment. Be back soon with some Shiny Somethings **
