power-sports; competitions, learning experiences, historical and educational
activities.
The programme aims to encourage increasing numbers of people to experience
something new about the waterways.

waterside events. For an application pack please check out the Waterways
Ireland website www.waterwaysireland.org events section for a downloadable

Supposed to be - the outside edges are up & the centre is down. Why its the Midlands as is getting most the deluge. Ireland is just one big saucer. When the space programme gets going, it'll be a flying saucer & we can leave all that Lisbon shenanigans behind. |
