Fossett's Circus moves from Nenagh to their next venue in Limerick during the arrival of the remnants of Hurricane Irma in Ireland. Already at the site in Limerick at the new Iveco with new graphics and Robert Fossett's wagon. The next loads to arrive are the bunk and kitchen load towed by an ERF EC10 driven by Robert Fossett and the ERF ECT towing the ticket office. Robert returned to Nenagh after setting these loads and returned later that night with Hurricane Irma in full swing with the ERF E6 horsebox towing the toilet trailer followed by some of the artists loads. Robert sets these and returns to Nenagh for more loads. The ERF E11 towing the last show front trailer and bandstand then arrives followed by Suzanne Chipperfield with the stable lorry towing her wagon. Soon after, Edward Murphy arrives driving the ERF E6 bunk lorry followed by the generator and Marion's wagon and the Volvo FL bunk lorry and stable trailer. Edward Fossett Senior then arrives driving the ERF E12 towing the seating box trailer and tractor low loader. The tractor is unloaded and Robert Fossett soon arrives driving Edward Fossett Senior's Volvo F10 and living wagon following by the ERF ECT seating box and trailer and John Fossett driving the ERF EC11 workshop and tent trailer.
