That was a nightmare alright - almost bad enough to make you want to take up golf instead.

I am so sorry to hear that your trip to Dingle was a nightmare
Nothing seem to go right for you, the weather and then the car broke down in the worst place possible - the connors pass!
It's enough to put you off going again although hopefully it hasn't.
I hope you get the car back on the road again soon, keep your chin up

You should have put this in the( Fishing Trip Boo-Boos: to Avoid).

A right sickener lads, I feel your pain Hopefully the bass will have the decency to compensate you when you return.
