The rally passes by my front door in trinity on alternate years....

the 1st time i wasn't prepared as i never received any leafleting through my door....

i hads only just passed my test and decided to go out for bread and milk that particular saturday morning and just drove under the tape across the drive (i didnt know why it was there!) and pulled in to the road.....after about 5 seconds i heard a hell of a roar, looked in my rear view mirror to be confronted with a scoobie bearing down on me at warp speed.....that was his stage time knackered!

was shouted at by marshalls to "get the **** off the road!" and shown down the way, however, this was 9 in the morning and i could not get home till approx 1pm until the stages finished....

and as anyone knows...when you are only out for the papers etc. you are not usually dressed to nightclub standard so i had to sit in my mates house this saturday morning....with trackie bottoms, gap top, trainers and nae undercrackers or socks on!

not best pleased that day....especially as an unexperienced driver!

that said when they came back last year i sat in a deckchair in the field next to the house, beer in hand watching them fly past...and it was class!
