A blog so our girls know how their inheritance is being spent! A trip celebrating Robyne turning 50 this year & great to be sharing some of the journey with our good friends from the Naki, Wendy (also born 1961) and Les Marshall. The girls will be on the loose in Europe for the early part of June while the blokes go to The Isle of Man for the craziness of the TT racing. We are hoping you will check in now and then to see what we have been up too.....

Joey Dunlop - Ballymoney, Northern Ireland
Since we had visited Joey's Bar in 2007, his brother Robert had also died while racing motorbikes. The community have developed a beautiful paved memorial and garden area beside Joey's memorial as a tribute. Ross and Les saw the younger generation of Dunlop men racing at the IoM this year. Must be hard for the Dunlop women!
The bar has Joey Dunlop memorabilia everywhere and an assortment of clothing for sale - needless to say Ross came out with a new shirt!
Made our way back to Derry, in time to go out for dinner at the Garage - another restaurant with an extensive menu offering 30% off meals and drinks......
