Arrived in Northern Ireland this morning. It is cool but sunny in Belfast, will be travelling to the site on Friday morning. Not sure how things are going to pan out here with the terrorist incidents. Jimmy Siemers and Rhoni Barton are here, I think they took off before the troubles started.

There are a couple of press releases out about this World Cup stop, Bulletin one and Bulletin two

I have a GPRS connection now, so as long as I can get a signal on my phone I will be able to bring you live results, chat room and reports as all the action happens.

7th August 2006 World Cup - Enniskillen in Northern Ireland

For the 12th and 13th of August the World Cup moves to Northern Ireland for the final Tournament stop for this year. All the events are so close that the series titles are still wide open.

The Enniskillen event is my favourite, the setting is in the grounds of the castle right on the edge of the town. Again Planetwaterski will be at the event posting scores on the World Cup web site and reports and photos on out dedicated event page.

The plan is to bring you our live scoreboard and live chat commentary. Getting a signal at the site is difficult, but if all else fails the very least we will do is give you all the results after each series.
