I just got a call from Kevin and it appears we won 1st prize in Our category in the Fermoy Parade on St Patrick's Day , now thats the 'icing ' on the cake , I was aware of the Public reaction to the Cars and Our display BUT to be honoured by the Organizers on Our 1st visit to the Town was a real boost for the Club . well done all .

Congratulations, all.

I'm sure it was the cars that won the award for the club.

To say nothing of the hats, wigs, flags & other accessories. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Oh, only saw this thread now!

Great news guys & girls !!

In fairness all the minis were in top condition, alot of time was spent by all concerned to put on a good show, down to the flags and all that!!

Pat on the back !!
