Gonna go check it out Karma ?

Was weird but as it went past, with all the celebrations the last week, I felt quite moved to see the flame in person. Was really glad I made the effort to go, and Antrim did themselves proud with all the festivities going on while people waited for the big moment.

Was def worth the effort

I see a few have popped up on ebay.

The nearest it comes to me is a town 12 miles away and it's also their festival day so the big car parks are shut, no idea where I'd manage to park about ???
