    Returns from the field at 4pm, may take a race down. No idea where to park either, but will not be parking in my ex father-in laws driveway that's for sure. :D

    Tescos; Woodburn road. No chance. There's probably going to be dedicated parking somewhere, as most of the free parking is on the harbour, which I think is going to be occupied. You can't fit 60 bands into a place the size of Carrick, and expect there to be central parking as well...

    I think the pageant had a park and ride, so they'll probably do the same again.
